That twice the power you speak of is all relative to what resolution you are running at.. 3x gtx 670 would still struggle at at resolutions of 2560x1440 and upwards (stereo gaming) because of vram limitations. This card allows max settings, at higher resolutions, with vsync on. True definition of "Maxed out"
@Dilldo_ Ahh very fitting name. Leaves me with no need to call you any names. Dude most pc gamers have upwards of 8gb ram, and 1.5gb vram which is much more than any current console anyways so yes a portion is dedicated to the OS in the background, but thats like 2gb of physical memory used for background tasks MAX.. Plus mate I'm being modest when I say 8gb ram because most pc gamers have more (I for one have 32gb ram, which to put it into clueless tech noob terms for you, is roughly 128...
Yup getting two of these bad boys to replace my dual sli 680s.. Phenomenally fast cards but lacking the needed vram for super high res/ autodesk 3d applications... the 680s I mean, because the titan's 6gb is moooooooore than enough! :)
Haha what makes me laugh is all the butthurt console supporters who either can't accept the truth or too ignorant to SEE the truth. It's all on paper if you want the facts. Consoles will NEVER touch pc in the way of specs. Next-gen console specs are already dated in the pc world. FACT. Sony aren't harvesting some magical powers that turn average specs into infinite power houses. It's all smoke and morrors people. Try playing a ps3 on a 1440p monitor next to a pc on a 1440p mon...
Skyrim IS a overrated piece of trash!! Im glad that such a talented dev like CDPR have come out publicly about it's bland generic-ness. To me it's like COD in the way that there is two types of people who play it: Those who aren't observant enough to tell apart a generic, dated engine having, overhyped turd, and those who see the truth but are too afraid to go against the grain and stop being a sheep.
Dude same goes for every console generation though. At the te of their release they are (roughly) around the equivalent of a mid to low-high end pc (if that makes sense), until 2-3 months later of course, when pcs are back to miles ahead.
Agree. But don't you know, if you break down the intellectual dna of a console fanboy, they actually have no real idea about computer technology? So don't make fun. They are born that way.
Please excuse my ignorance towards American tradition, but when is "holiday"?
Stupid expression seeing as there's many..
@solid_warlord you're a solid_turd. You do realise some of us are currently gaming at 2560x1440 at 100fps+ and all you want out of next gen is 1080p 60fps. Dude get with the times, 4k gaming (for pc) is just around the corner! (as in most likely late 2013-early 2014)
P.s. now im not saying anyone is inferior or anything like that, but you make it sound like these next gen consoles are doing something revolutionary when in reality, its something pcs have done consistently...
@Upbeat Wtf man?? do you even understand game development at all?? Built on the 360? Ported to PC.... Your cred burnt to ash at that statement Haha
That's because ITS A BETA you clown! Battlefield 3 beta looked nowhere near as good as the final product (single player).. I assure you when this game comes out, the pc version will be praised for its visuals for quite a while after its release. Definitely not as long as the first one did, but thats all relative to the increasing speed of new technology
You.. dont know who muse is??
WTF!
Your use of the word "overkill" is quite subjective. It all depends what res you game at. If it's 1440p or higher if you're using multiple monitors, and you want max AA settings in ANY game, at a minimum of 60fps, then no it is not overkill :)
Actually I'm a proud PC player, and I must say I don't know ONE SINGLE person who gets pirated versions of games like The Witcher. Now quit being butthurt that your dated console will never match the brute force that is PC gaming
I think next gen SHOULD and most likely WILL (I hope) be about immersion to the best of the hardware's capabilities. And depending on the genre, this could be achieved numerous ways
Is this some kind of lame joke that no one understands but you?
HOT.AS.F**K.
Just shut the f*** up @DragonKnight and stop trying to sound smarter than you actually are..
"given the fact that the idiocy of your response has been echoed through the voices of so many who are either legally blind, illiterate, or suffer from some form of diminished mental capacity and are incapable of seeing the litany of lists people have created with the legitimate concerns levied against this game"
And they are? Let me guess..
1. It's not ...
Yes of course because you actually know me personally and my experience and skillset. You're a turd mate.
No. Just a hermet :)
