I bought a new system for AC...and it was worth it

BTW Barry, forgot to add. Congrats on the new rig! The 4770k has treated me good as well. Its amazing the difference a quality machine makes in terms of smoothness and immersion of the game

 

that's wasn't my intention,
but it's funny that's it's coming from you, who started this " hey look how big my .. .is ... " you know? what irony

I'm glad you're enjoying your upgrade, I'm not trying to take it away from you, but your OP statement to me sounds incorrect,

 

Congrats on the new rig, I upgraded mine as well a few months ago. Got my GTX 680 sold for a new GTX 780 Ti.

 

Thanks, guys.

Patrik, if you think that was my intention in starting this thread, you are even more tone-deaf than you appear. And you are in a minority of one so do yourself a big favour and leave before you say anything else stupid.

 

sigh, whatever ,

not sure why you can't accept the statement "state of the art" is wrong, but sure, enjoy your pc

if it wasn't your intention to show off, then I'm sorry, but don't call me stupid , or saying stupid things (there isn't a single one thing I said that is stupid , if you can't take it that's not my problem) , that just shows your true colors/intentions with this thread
you were simply wrong, but if you can't accept that that's fine,
doesn't matter to me

 

this definitely wouldve been a system seller for me, luckily i built a new pc right after this came out.
you should put you ac settings in your signiture, it helps devs and the community help you better if you run into problems, and i think the recommended cube map is about 4 your pc should handle it, pretty sure. welcome and have fun!!!

ps. and with that rig you definitely want to get a wheel

 

i bet its the cpu, i noticed everybody having issues have older cpus, im running 4th gen i5 and its solid even with a 650 ti

the ops just exited about his new rig like i was(we all were), and his system is nothing to sneeze at...i always wanted to say that

 

Can someone explain to me what "face per frame" mean if 6 is what it should be because I can't go above 1 or I get like 10FPS.

 

Congrats on the new PC bud I've done the same just for AC,only a gtx770 to add ..

 

Congrats on your new PC Strummer, May she last you 10 years of enjoyment.


^^^^ FOV=74, Converted all the car(s) and Cloud textures from 32bit,24bit to DXT5, saves on average 500Mb of vram.
which is good if I ever want to down sample 2560X1600 to my native res.

Pretty low graphics settings you got there with that beefy rig, no wonder the fps are so high, I suggest to crank up those settings, 200fps it's just a wasted horsepower.

 

How much stronger of a card is the GTX770 4GB than my 6950 2GB?

I'm only using single monitor and want ultra smooth 60 fps with as much as possible turned on.

I have the ultra smooth 60 fps now but barely have anything on (and it still looks beautiful)

 

Michael how much fps you get with V-sync off in hotlap mode?

 

about 70

 

single 42" 120Htz monitor
You must be running on pretty high resolution

 

I need to change that because now I am back on my 27"......both of them are 1920x1080 though.

 

I want change my rig soon so I've got question for you Strummer. How many FPS do you have in race with 24 opponents?

 

In this comparison there is 6970 but the difference is still big. Depends on the title though.

Somebody somewhere is about to get a heck of a deal on two 6950's....If crossfire worked I would be fine but as it stands right now one 6950 is barely cutting it and this is the second update in a row I've had to lower settings to stay smooth.

Does the 4GB 770 have Shadowplay?

 

Congrats on the new pc op..am in a similar position in upgrading just for AC but holding off until mp gets underway. Atm am getting upto 170fps hotlapping, granted res is only 1366x768 but it still looks pretty. Am optimistic mp wont add to much load and with 4 kids to feed..gotta be frugal..sigh. egg and chips for a month though if it comes to it
