960 will play Metro games on ultra in what resolution? Also future games?

Nvidia GeForce GTX 960 2GB

 

I am darn sure it will play it on max in 720p, 768p but 900p? and higher?

 

Also what about future games? Will they be 720p as max res or more? =)

 

Please comment and tell me what you think!

 

In what FPS would be lovey to know also!

Is it worth playing on max when you need to bump resolution so low?

I'd say 1080p and below. Nothing above 1080p. A 960 is a perfect card for 1080p gaming. Although the vram could have used more work. Then again, a 4GB version is already out.

The 960 isn't a very future proof card due to it's lack of vram so I would imagine that in a few years that it would only be able to play at medium 1080p at a decent frame rate.

I can see it quite well in 768p which I play on with my laptop!

Well thats kinda what I expected it to do.

Well not ultra but with quite a few settings turned down. But it will still look better than the consoles.

Since you specifically asked about Metro, the Metro Redux games run at 50–60 FPS at 1080p with SSAA and PhysX turned off (all else at max) on my system with a GTX 770. The 770 is usually only a few percent (i.e. a couple of frames) faster than a 960. It's also a fairly CPU-sensitive game, so someone with something better than my i5-750 may see even better performance.

 

I expect the GTX 960 to continue to be appropriate for 1080p gaming for a few years. In some games you may have to do some more tweaking than others to keep framerates consistent, but you should not be dropping the resolution.

 

The GTX 960 gets utterly thrashed by the community around here, and I don't think the benchmarks really support that. It was kind of a boring launch after the 970/980, but it's a more competitive card than it gets credit for.

I know that even a "Athlon X4 860K" can manage the Metro games. And yes I feel like a 960 is to much for my current needs and will be fine in the future also! =)

 

Also my laptop with a 840M can play metro at 768p at medium or more.
