What should your specs be for Ultra settings?

[Episodic]

I see a lot of people asking if they can run this game on certain settings. So I am curious on what you think the specs are needed to run this game on ultra with 60fps.

For example, I assume an i7 @ 2.5ghz, GTX 660/AMD 7870, 8GB of ram could run this game on ultra.

I am curious on what you think someone would need to run this game on ultra, spec wise.

I am running:

i7 4770k @ 3.50ghz
AMD 7950 3gb
16 gb ram

Which should be more then enough to run on ultra.

I'm running close to that, I have a 7870 and the same i7 as you. But for some reason, I dont see this running that well for AMD users as is the case for MOST games. Here's hoping.

At ultra 1080p 60 fps? A 660? LOL. Also, an i7 wouldn't make any sense, this game doesn't utilize hyperthreading AT ALL. I can easily see a 770 or even a 780 being the requirement for ultra 60 fps at 1080p. Maybe even dipping in certain areas. It's all up to the coding and with the money spent by Nvidia on this title, here's hoping that it runs great on at least Nvidia hardware :)

Not even two 780s SLI give you 60fps in this game. Not even on high. With your i7 and 7950 you`ll get around 30fps at max settings, but only if you use smaa or fxaa instead of msaa.

Only way to get 60 FPS.

Yea, nice try Biebo. The demo that was played on Nvidias conference a few months back was played on 780 SLI and I THINK it was a 4k projector to showcase 4k textures, and it was smooth as butter. I assume it was without much, if any, optimization in such an "early" build. And if you base your thinking around the leaked version that you can torrent, then the jokes on you if you think that's the final code :)

well resolution has a lot to do with it as well no?

for me i hope i can run at least high with some of the extra goodies turned off or on low like shadows and fxaa/msaa

im running

- i5 25k at 3.5ghz
-8 gb corsair vengeance ram
- xfx radeon 7850

1600*900 monitor

it is the final version, including the 1.01 day one patch. Biggest performance killer in this game is the foliage in woods. If you max the game using hbao+, soft shadows, environment details (very high) and god rays (high), you'll get around 30-40fps there, and that is without msaa. I saw it on a 7970 GHZ. If you fully max the game with 8xmsaa, not even two 780s would be able to hold the 60. And that is a fact.

[Vanta Black]

I'd wager its gonna look pretty effing good even on lower settings. That 60 (min) fps is the golden egg.

[rain puddle]

Haha, we will see soon enough, and who plays with 8x msaa? At 1080p and 1440p you don't need that much AA, and if you have enough money to buy a GPU that can power this game at ultra, but not enough money for a monitor above 1600x900 then you screwed yourself over. :)

I'm just trying to help here. OP thinks he can pull the 60 on his rig, and i'm just saying, it won't happen. I don't really care if you believe me :)

[BelgianStar]

Well, OP is getting close to the rig I saw running (what he called maxed) at 1080p while streaming...

[rain puddle]

I'm not saying I don't believe you, I'm saying that it's not true that you need 780 in SLI to run this game decently at max settings. But yes, OP, a 660 or a 7870 is cutting pretty close if you want a high/ultra experience, but until the game is released and we got some drivers from both Green and Red camp, this is mostly just speculation.

[Godzooky III]

i read that those bonus nvidia features will also work with amd cards except tsaa. is that true?

id like to experience god rays even if i have to run it at 30fps

[DFogz]

I've got

• i7-4770k @3.5ghz
  
• 2x GTX 660's in SLI
  
• 16GB RAM

As long as it's properly optimized for SLI I'll be happy, and should be able to max it out. Had no problems running Batman:AO with above 60fps.

Thought we were talking about 60fps without any dips ^^

@HologramWolf

Yes, everything works on amd cards, except txaa.

edit: i wouldn't use txaa anyway. nvidia users confirmed that it blurs the textures.
