Do cards bought from Ebay get the Never Settle deal? I'm not sure.

 

I'd assume I don't get the free two games but that's fine with me.  Yup I wanted the big ass heat sink, hopefully I can OC to at least 1150Mhz and 1800Mhz but we'll see.

It may be a universal deal, check with Sapphire or AMD or something

I've stopped looking at custom coolers. I like stock. Mostly because then a block is a guaranteed fit.

 

EDIT: Downloading 4k textures for ME3 so I can play the final DLC with nice graphics.

Tomb raider is fun even if I have to run it on high with ultra textures, no TressFX and no tessellation to play(25-45fps) at native resolution(2560x1600). Damn, I need a new GPU.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Cold. Soooo cold...

 

 

Nice fire.

 

 

Ohhh. Forest.

 

 

 

Venison for dinner.

 

 

Seriously. Are you kidding me?

 

 

 

Crrreeaaapppyyy...

 

 

 

I'll be here. Behind this box. Chillin.

 

 

But I want an ice cream!

 

 

Sigh.

Hmm that's what I thought isn't there another program you need with it? I tried it a while ago and never got it to work.

 

EDIT: Just downloaded and tried it again and it works! I guess there was an update or something...

I use Vsynch Double Buffer on with everything else on Medium.

 

I can disable Vsynch and run it on high though.

Damm...

 

What graphics card are you using?

 

What resolution?

 

When you say high settings, are we talking high general settings with high textures, and AA and SSAO and Tesselation?

Don't worry I have some really old gear... And it's only 81 avg not 86...

 

*No Laughing*

Q9300@3Ghz / 8GB

GTX285 Stock

1440x900 Display

 

 

 

 

It plays good enough for me. wink_face.gif

An overclocked GTX470 or a stock GTX480 should be able to play it at that sort of FPS on high, 1080p with Tessellation off. My overclocked GTX460(which is about 5% faster than a stock GTX470) gets a benchmark score of 84fps avg, min 49 and max of 92 with these settings:

 

Res: 1920x1080p

Texture Quality: High

Anisatropic Filtering: 8x

Hair: Normal

Anti-Aliasing: FXAA

Shadows: Normal

Shadow Resolution: High

Reflections: High

DOF: Normal

SSAO: Normal

Post Processing: On

Tessellation: Off

High Precision: Off

 

For reference the screenshots I posted earlier were played at:

 

Res: 2560x1600p

Texture Quality: Ultra

Anisatropic Filtering: 16x

Hair: Normal

Anti-Aliasing: FXAA

Shadows: Normal

Shadow Resolution: High

Reflections: High

DOF: Normal

SSAO: Normal

Post Processing: On

Tessellation: Off

High Precision: Off
