Best 1440p 144 frames GPU

TheEvanFactor

I was wondering what graphics card would be a good pick to get 144 frames at 1440p and near max video settings. Ia m not worried about TDP, bottlenecking, and which company it is. The main games I play are Destiny 2 and The division 2.

Thank you.

I think you should be looking at 2080/Radeon VII for that. Either would be good for low/medium in the more demanding games for 144hz. And both should do esports games (CSGO, Overwatch etc) at the highest settings 144hz I'd have thought.

 

If you play specifically CSGO I believe the Radeon VII absolutely loves that game and matches the 2080ti from what I remember. One of the few games where AMD absolutely blows nvidia out of the water. Overwatch prefers Nvidia by a fair bit though, and the rest of the esports titles tend to be back and forth. I assume you are after playing esports games.

I think it would be the rtx 2080 imo. Rtx 2070 wont handle the most demanding games(shadow of the tomb raider, division 2, anthem, etc) at 100+fps and 2080 ti's performance jump from the 2080 doesnt justify the cost.(but if you have the money, go for it)

Damn....

The RTX 2080 and Radeon VII are probably the best all around 1440p cards. You could probably get away with a 2070 or Vega 64 but be prepared to lower settings quite a bit. The 2080, in my experience, is a perfect match.

2080ti, 2080, used 1080ti, raccoon VII, maybe Vega 56/64.

2080 or VII.

 

You will have to turn some settings down.  Most games I was playing were not getting 144-165 hz until I SLI'd 2080's, in just googling division 2 videos, its the same story looks like people are getting 60-80 fps with a 2080 on ultra.  If you go to med settings you should be able to push some nice frame rates.

 

All that said, 80-100 FPS, which should be doable with a lot of games at 1440p with a 2080, looks great and still very smooth.

The Radeon VII and the RTX 2080 are overkill as fuck for 1440p 144Hz in CS:GO, to be completely fair.

Just throw an RX 580 in your rig (unless you're trying to play with MSAA) and have a CPU that can run the game worth a damn and then you're getting somewhere.

The best gpu available will always be the best at any resolution. An RTX Titan or 2080TI will be the best at 1440p 144hz period. Same with 1080p and 4k. If you want the cheapest card out that can manage most games at that rate get a 1080 and even then in new games like apex legends a 1080 will not net you a steady 144fps even at all times. 
Personally i would never recommend anything less than a mid range gpu ex a 2070. Just due to lifespan and performance over time. But if you only have one game in mind or two and dont change games a 1060 or 2060 may be enough.

It's not just about GPU. The whole RTX lineup can do 144fps on most games at 1080p if you had a 9900k. 1440p and 4k is where they can't do 144fps.

Right on.  Sad thing is, nothing can really reliably do 144 fps on EVERYTHING at 1440p.  My 2080ti only gets 144 fps on lower demand games (overwatch, apex, low requirement games).  The AAA titles on Ultra it wont consistently get 144, hell on a lot of them it stays under 100!

the 2080 ti does 1440p/144hz on division 2 on medium, not high, destiny iirc got 130s on high

little to no head room means rtx not ready for 1440p/144hz.

you want to see same story on 1660ti perfect for 1080p/60hz forever~~~

Has nothing to do with RTX.

 

There isn't a GPU that can hold 144 FPS at 1440P across the board period.

 

They haven't made one that can do it yet.

 

And with the games constantly evolving it will be some time before that happens.

Saw this post and ran a few tests on both of my computers.

Most likely a 2080 Ti for 1440p/144Hz, I have a setup in the living room with 2 RTX 2080s in it, generally gaming on one of the GPUs it can hold about 70 ~ 90 FPS in games if you tinker with the graphics settings, but on the Titans (closest to the 2080 Ti), again, testing with only one active GPU, I'm able to easily achieve a stable-ish 144 FPS in games like Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Resident Evil 2, Overwatch if I lower the graphics settings a bit(save for Overwatch, that game hits 144 no prob). AAA games it's still kinda hard to hit a stable 144 FPS, heck even a stable 120 FPS with the graphics settings turned up. My TV supports 1080P @ 120 Hz and I usually game on that setting if I am playing a multiplayer title, does it have to be 1440p? Are you willing to step down to 1080p? 1080p at 120 or 144 Hz is pretty easy to pull off on a high end card.

 

SLI helps a bit in the 1440p/144Hz scenario in games that support it -- with the 2080s I was able to hit 144FPS in Shadow of the Tomb Raider on a medium setting at 1440p, Resident Evil 2 still kinda struggled in DX11 but was close enough, the Titan's had no issues hitting it.

 

So I guess it all comes down to compromise ? You can get a high end card like a 2080 Ti and tinker with graphics settings and hit about 144FPS in most, even AAA titles if your willing to sacrifice some graphics quality settings, or go with 1080p and sacrifice the resolution..

We are at that point again were the games are way ahead of the GPU's.

 

Should start to level out some in the coming years again.
