Attention GTX 980 owners. How does it run?

[Azcension]

Title

[DireWolf]

SLI'ed 980s running 4k resolution. Not bad but a definite bit of stuttering with regular video settings on Ultra. Turned off AA, Blur, Motion Blur, Sharpening and Nvidia Hair works as well and only SSAO, not HBAO+. Latest driver from today installed.

[RankerBR]

fine as ♥♥♥♥

the crossfire Scaling is not implament ? my 2 x 280x Windfore are the same Fps crossfire Off = 40 FPS all maxed "Hairworks off" 2 x 280x = 40-50 fps ? i hope this will be fixed

[DireWolf]

Just took a look at that Geforce Witcher 3 link. Is that really saying 40 FPS with SLI'ed Titan Xs? I have a feeling they will be optimizing Hairworks in the future, 40fps with TWO of the top of the line cards is kinda ridiculous.


EDIT: My mistake they are testing in 4k, well sacrifices in graphics settings are expected with 4k still.

For some reason I can't go full screen on 4k resolution 60 Hz... Only borderless window mode... Anyone else with that problem?

It's crashing on my 970.

It is in 4k with all maxed out, but I do feel the same lol

Ah I see they are all 4k, ok so no running this game at max settings in 4k yet. :)

Btw, this is an AWESOME link that Thor posted. Does Nvidia do this for all it's games? This is great I can fully research the graphics options and their changes and decide what I want and don't want when the system can't run at full. Kudos Nvidia and Thor for posting.

Yeah I too thought it was pretty cool of them to go so in depth like that but I'm honestly not sure if they do it for all or not. Never seen it before...

Havent crashed yet with a 980 but i do feel like for the graphics it would feel overall smoother on ultra. Maybe its because the character feels stiff and out of place compared to other games.

i7 5930k
geforce gtx 980
16gb ddr4

[Micket]

50-60fps@1440p

Hairworks off, and couple settings on high instead of ultra.

Looks great. :3

They do it (recently) for most AAA releases. There should be a page where they have all the ones theyve done so far. It seriously helps to figure out exactly which settings are worth turning on or off. Helps to find a happy medium to keep graphical fidelity as high as possible while netting as many frames as you can

Just ran a comparison, same scene with and without hairworks.
Without 80+ FPS, with 45-60... just wow... this needs to be optimized. As much as it hurts, gonna play without for now, even though it looks gorgeous.

Everything else on Ultra, running with a GTX 980.

What do you mean optimize? Just because its a demanding setting doesnt mean it isnt optimized. As a matter of fact, a 20fps drop is nothing compared to it rendering 6,000 ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ hairs in Geralts beard at once....up to 150,000 on his head up close. I mean, srsly?

[Cato Sicarius]

maxed out with GTX 980s in SLI, everything except Hairworks.
