    If your getting the 6600k think about how far you want to push the OC, if not much then a 212 evo will be sweet and if high OC consider something like the NH-D15 or an aio. 16gb ram is preferable these days.

    I would want the Razor Blade Stealth so I can give it to my sister who is an artist that uses my computer for her drawing and she almost out of high school and I have a desktop so this would be a great college present.

    ShotDC reacted to W-L in New house, new wireless   
    Since it's 3 floors assuming it's a fairly large home, getting multiple access points around the home may be the best option to ensure a good wireless coverage throughout the home and prevent any possibility of dead zones.

    Yes that looks to be alright, should be a very capable wireless network once it's all setup and configured.

    It has a remote, other than that all the functions are basically equal. Apart from some rts thing they promise(which is already in the 2411).
    Internal components is better I suppose. More overclocking.

    No, nVidia cards fully support DX12... they just currently see 0 benefit from it in games (unlike AMD which has had a massive boost)

    ShotDC reacted to deathjester in Shadows of Mordor optimization and tips.   
    Edited cus I am a dumb ass, regarding mesh quality.
     
    Played with this for a few hours now, played with the Ultra texture pack. 4k is perfectly playable and has higher FPS averages than the console port on a R9 290/GTX 970 and possibly a equally powered 3GB card. Will a r9 290 beat a 970 at stock due to memory bandwidth? Maybe, but my r9 290 is stock and you can overclock the 970 quite a bit.
     
    Important things.
     
    Run the game in windowed borderless (gives you triple buffering). Turn off Vsync, unlock FPS. This increases the smoothness of the game BIG TIME. Locked FPS sucks at this game, vsync sucks in this game as well.
     
    Do not run Ultra textures unless you have a 6 GB card, because if you have the GPU power to run at 1440p Ultra, you should be running at 4k anyways through the in game downsampling (put the resolution option to 4k). It simply looks better. Unless you have a 6GB Titan Black simply ignore the Ultra texture pack all together. 4k high > 1440p Ultra. 1440p downsampling probably looks better than 1080p ultra as well.Just pretend this thing doesn't exist unless you have a Titan/Black. You will save yourself a ton of headaches.
     
    My Graphics options.
     
    Lighting Quality. Maxed.
    Mesh Quality. Ultra.            I saw little performance difference on this with high textures. This absolutely killed performance with Ultra Textures.
    Motion Blur. Off.
    Shadow Quality High, With an OC you might be able to push this.
    Texture Filtering Ultra
    Texture Quality High
    Ambient Occlusion High. Same as Shadow Quality. Might be able to push this with a OC.
    Vegetation  Range Ultra
    Depth of Field On
    Order Independent Transparency on.
    Tessellation. On.
     
    Game runs like butter on my stock R9 290. A native 4k monitor will of course look better. This game is NOT badly optimized. If Batman is this optimized I will do freakin cartwheels. I did not think it would be smooth under 60 fps but it is. A locked 30/Vsync was a mess though.
     
    Screenshot of 4k at 1080p. This is what the game looks like while running around. This is not a depth of field glory shot. Some detail is lost in the pic.

    4k Benchmark with these settings. Updated since I changed mesh back to Ultra.

    Hope it helps. Now that I am done playing with settings I can enjoy the game. If you are running a lower end card, maybe you can use these settings to downsample from 1440p (150 percent in the menu under resolution). Give it a shot and see if you like the image quality more.

    Without the cage, the case affords you 360mm of space for the graphics card. With it, I imagine you'll get about 320mm of space. The reference 980 Ti is 288mm long while the Windforce card is 309mm long.
