What GPU do i need to hit 165 FPS in MGSV on Ultra settings 1440p?

[dont laugh, bad with deagle]

I have an RTX 2060 and i am only hitting about 80 FPS with some settings (like motion blur, shadows etc.) turned down or off.

Do you think a 3070 would be enough?

MGS V is frame limited to 60 fps...

It isn't. Just change framerate control to variable.

The framerate is indeed locked to 60FPS by default, though it can be unlocked by editing the graphics config file.

HOWEVER, The Phantom Pain was never intended to run at a framerate above 60FPS, so higher framerates (above 100FPS) are impossible to achieve. With all the settings at their lowest (including resolution), my 3060 Ti is producing the same framerate as your 2060.

Additionally, even if the most powerful GPU currently available could run the game at the framerate you desire, you'd almost certainly encounter tons of game-breaking glitches, as is the norm for games (Japanese games in particular) running at the wrong framerate.

lmao there's no game breaking glitches after 60fps, stop lying to the public.

I was referring to a hypothetical scenario, my dude. The Phantom Pain can't really run above 100FPS—at least on today's hardware or more likely due to the limitations of the game engine—though Ground Zeroes can. If GZ uncapped (running above 100FPS) is indicative of what TPP uncapped would be like, it's pretty busted. Wacky physics, throwing weapons getting stuck in the air, that kind of thing.

That's not to say running TPP at 70-90FPS doesn't create obnoxious bugs. In just a few hours of playing TPP without the framerate cap, I ran into a crazy glitch that sent Snake to the void below the map. After clearing a guard post, I went to mount D-Horse, and as soon as I pressed Y, Snake disappeared, D-Horse fell down as if he was knocked out, and Snake fell through the ground. Since I was in a mission, Snake didn't die and was instead booted from the mission for leaving the AO, so I was left to explore the nothingness that was never meant to be seen. Thankfully, I could leave the void by pausing and returning to the ACC.

Simply put, if the framerate of a game is capped, there's probably a good reason why.

It’s engine limitation. It doesn’t need all of that frames

I need all those frames.

[SuperBeasto]

it's capped to 60, engine can't handle above that, besides you don't need all those frames.

If it couldn't handle it, the game would break, you'd probably jump 30 feet in the air when you dive, enemies would start shooting you without very little rests. I play above 60fps and the game doesn't break, nor do the physics.

...okay, but that doesn't at all mean the game is for sure going to be stable at really high framerates. High FPS has been proven to mess with a lot of games, and I sincerely doubt TPP is watertight enough to be fine at super high FPS.

It might work for now, but absolutely nothing says the game will behave properly at even higher framerates.

I play at 60 FPS and find it great with no issues myself, love it!

There is zero proof for the game having stability issues above 60fps.

High frame rate • Link
By default, enabling Adaptive V-Sync in the driver control panel will disable V-Sync entirely on a 60 Hz display. Unlocking the framerate will fix this.
Edit config file[citation needed]
Go to the configuration file location.
Open TPP_GRAPHICS_CONFIG in the text editor of your choosing.
Change the line "framerate_control" : "Auto", to "framerate_control" : "Variable", and save the file.
On some configurations make sure that "Windows Timer Resolution" is set 0.5 ms for more stable 100+ higher FPS on high end cards.
Notes

If you make any changes to the graphics options in-game, this preference will be reset.
Affects camera/mouse input; Higher/variable FPS = higher/variable sensitivity.

what are any of you talking about this game used to not be 60 fps locked at all, when i first bought it i could go up to the 144 of my monitor latency.
people talking about it being the standard for this game, they just straight up didnt want to get the game to keep up with the new graphics cards
