Can a GTX 970 run this game well ?

[dprog1995]

I know my graphic card is too old. Sadly due to the ♥♥♥♥♥♥ economy of my country I can't afford getting a better graphic card for now.

Can I run this game at 60 FPS,1080P on lowest settings on my system ?
CPU:i7-4790K
Graphic:GTX 970
RAM: 16GB DDR3
Storage: SSD

I feel like my 1080ti will barely run anything anymore. Time for new cards. 3080tis are a pretty good deal now that the 40 series are out.

Yes.

Lol. And I was thinking of either getting a 2060 or a 3060 since my cpu can't handle powerful GPUs.(And I need to change my motherboard for getting better cpus since that cpu is the best my motherboard can use)

Sadly can't afford to do that for now.

Yes.

Krryzzpy is the best benchmark guy on youtube. I love his content.

Run? Probably yes.
Quality, probably no.

On the other hand a 1080Ti should be able to run it just fine, my old system has one and my kids are using it, it still runs games pretty decently.

with your current processor you could invest in a 30xx series NVidia card or AMD equivalent, but it will probably lack in power to push data fast enough to your videocard.
it'll still be a good upgrade in most circumstances though.

Thanks. I'll check that video out when I get to home.

i have a 980ti and it works perfectly fine for me with framerates constantly at about 50-70, quality settings are between middle and ultra. I have 32GB of RAM tho.

Same here. 6 Year old i7, 32GB Ram, 3TB SSD, GTX 1080ti 12GB. Runs perfect on HIGH settings.

yes, and even he admits on every GPU he's tried from low to high end, the game stutters, on all of them!

Thats an engine issue. Every game that uses the unreal 4 engine stutters. Thankfully unreal 5 has mostly solved that issue. The workaround is frame limiting the game to something your pc can reliably run all the time which for most is 60hz. Nivdia also has an 'ultra' latency option in the driver settings that can clear up stutter if your pc has the horsepower. If you have a 40xx gpu then frame generation will also remove the stutter.

ive tried all that, helps very little. I'm on 13900k and 4090 too, check profile for full details

The game just runs fine on my GTX 1080 at full settings in 1280*720 resolution and a 5800X AMD.

Weird as I've used this fix myself on ue4 games and seen it used on this one in a few videos. Well there is still much optimization to do so hopefully its all ironed out. This is why I wait for the inevitable steam sale for single player games because by then its usually all patched up and stable.

i noticed that most people who say the game runs fine and smooth is on low end hardware. Makes sense as this game was developed long ago. They probably threw RT on top and tanked performance even more. Either way, poorly optimized game, and/or engine issue.

I watched the video and it looks like the game can run at 1080P 60 FPS with a overclocked 970.(Since I'm not using overclocking I guess my graphic runs the game a little worse.)

So, I guess the game is playable with my old graphic card.
