That will dump air OUTSIDE your case, not inside it. That's no good for a case that's got poor ventilation. ![]() This card dumps it's heat into your case. If you have micro/mini ITX, then you don't want this card. If you have a case smaller than a full size ATX, say, a midi ATX, you'll probably need more case fans. The cooling is sufficient, so long as you have decent cooling in your case. I just purchased this because it was the cheapest from a decent brand name. You don't know until you buy, and that goes for all the OEMs. If you're thinking how well this does this overclock? That's just a lottery. They are pretty much ALL locked down, they are all capped unless you're into extreme modding. Well, the thing is, there's not much difference between ALL the 10 series cards. But what about THIS CARD, what about THIS PARTICULAR model. All the older games, well, they all run maxxed out at 3440x1440 with everything cranked right up, solid 60FPS. ![]() If that's the case, and you're planning to play the latest titles at higher than 2560x1440 with everything on ultra, including shadows, grass, at a minimum of 60FPS, you need to get the 1080, or even wait to the get the 1080ti. I'll think nothing less of you if ultra shadows & ultra grass is your bag. I suppose if I were playing a grass simulator, I'd be gutted. Can you tell the difference between very high grass and high/normal grass? Yes. Can you actually tell the difference between soft shadows and nVidia Soft Shadows? I can't. So what did I need to sacrifice to get 60FPS in Witcher 3/GTA V? That's not bad.Ģ560x1080 or 1920x1080, and this card will run any game at everything on ultra at 60FPS. I imagine if you're gaming at 2560x1440 then YES you WILL get 60FPS with drops to around 55 every so often. Don't get me wrong, this card CAN run modern with ultra shadows on games, Witcher 3, GTA V, Doom, at 3440x1440 (4.9 megapixels) but just NOT at CONSTANT 60FPS. So I decided to get the 1070 instead, and put the £300 to one side and eventually pick up the 1270 in a few years.Īn extra £300 just to have shadows on ultra, instead of high? Your call. But genuinely couldn't justify spending almost double the money (+£300 at the time of writing) just so I could have ultra shadows and a few additional level of AA, especially as my eyes are getting old, and add their own AA to everything around me anyway. I even considered waiting a month to purchase the 1080. Something even a single 1080 can struggle with, max settings, on some games. With 3440x1440 you're getting close to 4K territory. I can't tell you how many reviews I watched on youtube, how many reviews I read online. On my R9 in GTA5, I could only have High for both. There are two that I like to have as high as I can. I'm quite happy to turn down some of the settings. Personally, I go for a solid 60fps more than anything. Other items in my rig are an i7 4790k 4.6, and 16Gb of 2166Mhz DDR3 RAM, and all games are ran from SSD's. My AMD R9 280x just didn't have either the horsepower nor the vRam to cope. That's a jump from 2.7 million pixels to 4.9 million pixels. So the rumours about all MSI cards made in China using micron memory are false. Incidentally, this doesn't have the micron memory and does use Samsung (as checked by GPU-Z). Well, at least after several hours of Witcher 3 gameplay I was getting no artefacts or glitches.
