GTX970 @ 1366x768 benchmarks

Go to solution Solved by Agrajag,

I have been saving my spare change for almost a year now for my proposed upgrade. For transparency/arguments sake my upgrade will be two high end systems one built for gaming and one built for media editing. Both will have high end... everything. The only difficult decisions I have left to make are the monitor(s) type(s). 

 

I am not trying to brag. I don't even truly understand how someone could think that their computer has any effect on their self worth.

 

I say this to illustrate that the cost of something is only a delay and buying a less expensive and or less desirable version of what you might think you want is often a mistake, easily avoided by patience. 

 

What I am saying probably sounds arrogant. If you knew me at all you would know that it is not meant to be. If you really want a decent gaming rig that will see you into happily into the future. Take your time. Stuff your spare cash under your mattress or in an old coffee jar and in very little time you will have enough for a BEAST of a gaming PC!

 

Good luck with your build mate!  ;)

Can someone please do a benchmark of the GTX970 @ 1366X768. I'm still using one of those monitors and was wondering on ultra in games what fps I could get. Games like bf3, bf4, farcry 3, crysis 3 and any others really.

seeing as this card is aimed at 1440 you dont need benchmarks at all as they will mostly say 100+

Odds are you'll probably be able to max any game at 60fps. I haven't seen any true benchmarks for it though, but you could add about ~20% framerate to any 1080p benchmarks you see.

 

It's still overkill.

I can be a cynical a**hole at times. I apologize if I cause any offence at those time. I also occasionally have issues communicating my point. Extreme introversion + Photographic memory + Some other things.

Desktop: i5-4670k - 8gb 1600MHz - MSI 7850

Laptop: i7-4810QM - GTX 870m - 8gb RAM

I'm busy learning game dev and I'm sure that card would work great for that but was just wanting to see benchmarks @768 would be funny I rate

your avatar. My thoughts exactly. 

Buy a new screen and a cheaper GPU lol. 

muh specs 

Gaming and HTPC (reparations)- ASUS 1080, MSI X99A SLI Plus, 5820k- 4.5GHz @ 1.25v, asetek based 360mm AIO, RM 1000x, 16GB memory, 750D with front USB 2.0 replaced with 3.0  ports, 2 250GB 850 EVOs in Raid 0 (why not, only has games on it), some hard drives

Screens- Acer preditor XB241H (1080p, 144Hz Gsync), LG 1080p ultrawide, (all mounted) directly wired to TV in other room

Stuff- k70 with reds, steel series rival, g13, full desk covering mouse mat

All parts black

Workstation(desk)- 3770k, 970 reference, 16GB of some crucial memory, a motherboard of some kind I don't remember, Micomsoft SC-512N1-L/DVI, CM Storm Trooper (It's got a handle, can you handle that?), 240mm Asetek based AIO, Crucial M550 256GB (upgrade soon), some hard drives, disc drives, and hot swap bays

Screens- 3  ASUS VN248H-P IPS 1080p screens mounted on a stand, some old tv on the wall above it. 

Stuff- Epicgear defiant (solderless swappable switches), g600, moutned mic and other stuff. 

Laptop docking area- 2 1440p korean monitors mounted, one AHVA matte, one samsung PLS gloss (very annoying, yes). Trashy Razer blackwidow chroma...I mean like the J key doesn't click anymore. I got a model M i use on it to, but its time for a new keyboard. Some edgy Utechsmart mouse similar to g600. Hooked to laptop dock for both of my dell precision laptops. (not only docking area)

Those benchmarks are not worth the time to write down..

for fun i went with sniper elite 3 maxed out with x4 SSAA

with a single 780 clocked at 953 mhz

2560x1440, 22-23 fps

1920x1080, 38-40 fps

1366x768, 64-65 fps

 

fps would be a bit higher if i actually let my gpu clock up to 1250mhz

with SSAA turned off

1440 = 85

1080 = 120

768 = 165

At the risk of getting noob bashed...

 

I thought that 1366 was a laptop screen? If the not wrong as I may well be, doesn't that make a 970 benchmark moot on that res?

It will run it. 1366x768 is a shitty resolution. You should get a better monitor first and wait on the gpu. I'm in the same boat as you. I have a couple 1366x768 displays and it's so much better playing at 1080p and I almost shit my pants when I played on a 1440p display.

Laptops, monitors, tv's just about anything with a screen can have 1366x768 :)

The most common result of insufficient wattage is a paperweight that looks like a PC

Sh#t here in south Africa is expensive! The gtx970 is $590 here and a lower card the 750ti is $260 so yeah and a 1080p monitor is the same price around $280 for a cheap one. I've had my monitor for 6 years and here's an idea of south African pricing,, I bought 2x4gb ram 4-5 years ago for $45 and now just 1x4gb ram is $55 for the same one

Yeah its the same as prices here in Australia. I wouldn't call it expensive but I don't have anything else to compare it too and I cannot be arsed getting parts shipped from America or the UK.

Native? Really? You see, I did not know that.  :P "The more you know" aye!

definitely an overkill. GTX970 can handle any game you wants at max settings (for now). if you're using it 768p res, make sure you have beefier CPU. i7 K series highly recommended to limit the CPU bottleneck due low res gaming.

CPU:  i5 4690 Motherboard: AsRock H81M-VG4 RAM: Corsair Vengeance 8GB (2x4GB) 1600MHz Graphics Card: Sapphire HD7870 OC Intel HD4600  MSI R9 270X HAWX Storage: 1TB WD Blue 7200rpm, 120GB WDC Scorpio 5400 rpm PSU: Corsair VS550 Chassis: Custom Open Air Case OS: Windows 8.1 X64 Mouse: Roccat Kone Pure Optical Mousepad: Roccat Taito Keyboard: Armageddon Kalashnikov AK-770i

These are my specs:

I5 4670

8gb ram

P85 d3 mobo

Gts 450 1gb ddr3

As you can see I haven't got anything fancy but yeah not all of us have thousands to spend on PCs and this in south Africa aren't very good at the moment politics or economy so yeah. But $350 in USA vs $590 in south Africa its quite a difference its more than the 980

Could you get a 1080p screen and a 770 or 760? Maybe compromise the card to upgrade both? A 9xx series card for a 1366x768 screen will just be overkill (I know a little about it, I ran 3x 1366x768 screens on a 7990 for a while lol).
