Geforce 680gtx and i5-2500k performance
As the title says I'm curious about the performance of the Geforce 680gtx and i5-2500k. I'm not sure if I should buy the game on ps4 or pc considering I'm just over minimum req. Can anyone say like settings and fps? would appreciate it!
Cheers!

For you I'd go the PS4 route.

I have notebook Lenovo y580 with i7 2,3GHz and GTX660m and for now I have around 20-30FPS. So I think your configuration will work much better :)

Are you running 1080p and everything on low? I mean ps4 will probably look better in that case and at least have stable 30fps... It's kinda hard decision to be honest :P

i have a gtx 670 and i7 3770k and its around 40 50 fps still better then ps4 i think and all the settings are on medium except detail is on ultra

I wouldn't chance it, if it was me I would go for the PS4 version. I wouldn't want to buy it twice based off some one else opinion on what runs good. 20-30 on low or slightly better wouldn't risk it.

gtx 760 running at 40fps on low, must be a joke...

Damn the performance seems jumpy as ♥♥♥♥ to be honest, I've read terrible results on good cards etc... I would get maaaaaaaaybe 60 fps everything on low if I'm lucky.. and I think it'll probably look like ps4 if I put on the medium settings and get 30... but pc and 30fps is just weird :P

I've posted this on another thread already, but think it'll help here as well:

i5 2500k (stock freq.)
GTX 760 (overclocked a wee bit)
Nvidia driver 352.86
Win 7 64-bit
(8 GB RAM and WD Velociraptor, but that's irrelevant)
1920x1080 resolution

With most stuff at Medium (motion blur OFF, water detail LOW, shadows LOW, Hair Wigglies OFF), Vsync ON, no AA, both in Borderless Window and Fullscreen I get ~30-45 FPS in the bedroom and on the balcony. Putting the fire out makes it go to 40-50 FPS.

Set everything to High, I got ~23-33 FPS... set max. framerate to 30... well, I get constant 30.

Only ran around in the first room, so I have no idea about the rest of the area(s)... Still have to finish W1, then W2 until I get to this one. :gravestone:

I'll wait till tomorrow before I decide and maybe more people will give more "feedback".

The console version will probably be locked at 30 FPS, so you could play it on the PC at that framerate without much issue, I believe... the 680 is considerably more powerful than my measly 760, and I trust I can get a constant 30.
Again, this is only my experience after running around the room and balcony at the very beginning.

Intressting... it seems kinda low to be honest, feels like I won't get 60fps on lowest settings it seems

I feel like mouse and keyboard works poorly under 60 frames per second while consoles feel better at lower frames than pc... dunno maybe it's all in my head. I'm afraid of the outdoor areas and cities if a room has low fps. Sure I could play with my ps4 controller on pc but... hmm :P gonna have to sleep on it xD

All the PS4 reviews I've read stated that the framerate often dropped below 30. So, it's not stable, even on PS4. I'd take that into consideration.
