1660 Super Good Enough For Upcoming Weather/Daynight Update?

[TheOofertaffy]

I'm not too concerned with the CPU but my GPU is a bit iffy, Here is a list of my full specs:

• Processor: AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 8-Core Processor
  
• Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER 6 GB Phoenix
  
• Operating System: Windows 10
  
• RAM: 16 GB

Basically with these specs, can i expect 60+ FPS on high/max settings or should I consider an upgrade?

Difficult question at the moment. Currently this card won’t work properly with the beta/Unreal 5 version of the game. But I fully expect GPU support to improve by the time this update roll around to the main branch. I would say wait for an update or two; your card should be fine.

yeah i went into the beta branch, and it worked fine for the most part, but there was some funky textures going on with the rail cars, and the actual rails, they had this sort of splotchy rainbow-y glossy texture on the side of them, presumably supposed to pop up after raining. so that kinda confused me, but regardless it is a beta so it's expected to have these weird things going on.

My Specs:
Ryzen 5 3600 6 core processor
GeForce GTX1060 6 GB DDR5
Windows 11
16 Gb DDR4 RAM

I have been playing the beta with the above specs without any issues, about 45 FPS. with game graphics set to epic.

Edit: or 50-60 FPS set on high.

8gp ram. (7.9 usable)
gpu NVIDIA geforce gtx 1050 ti
os windows 10
and I have loading and texture issues with RO
20-30fps on epic. somehow

wait, what? UE5 currently isn't supported by 1660?

Im running a 1070, 8gb. Works fine. Mpre vram, but older card. I think 8gb is bare minimum. You can probably find used 1070s fairly cheap

I would say that the RRO implementation of UE5 is working improperly when it comes to GPU requirements. I expect more cards with less than 8Gb VRAM to be supported after an update or two.

We will of course work on optimization – but just so you know, we will update the requirements soon.

When it comes to the textures, it might not be an issue on your end as we do know there's an issue causing it even with high-end PC.

Thanks for that update. I'm sure things will improve over time.

But to get back to the OP's question (will I get 60+ on max settings with a 1660 Super) and to clear up some of the misconceptions in a few of the posts above.
I'm running the same exact specs as the OP (albeit a bit more memory) which I felt was my qualifier to chime in here.
Although the latest trend here seems to be putting the cut-off for UE5 at 6 Gb vram, as well as no Intel integrated, our cards being 6 Gb, show that this is not the case for us. My video is working well, as it was before the update. The only degradation I'm seeing is a 20 fps drop across the board; I'm now getting 37-40 on epic with me solo running a couple of trains with rrox, to about 50 fps when idle...For what I need out of this game, I feel that is adequate. Since this is about the most demanding game I play, I don't think it's worth a video card upgrade for me at this point as I see no benefit from it. Especially once optimization gets on track.

I've got the same card and I'm running on high. So far no problems with how the game looks. Just update your drivers if they need it
