Planning to get an $800 desktop in the future, for now I'm stuck with a overheating brick.

I can max out all of the games I play @ 1080p w/my 960 and that's excellent IMO. Especially because I went from a laptop that played games on medium.

My 7970ghz is needing an upgrade soon, although I just got it to replace my dead 7850 oc :(

Well I've got all my games maxed out at 1200x1600, soon to be 1080p, and they run stable at 60fps so I'm very happy indeed.

Bad. My PC is pretty trash, but I can still do some stuff..

Like playing Skyrim on Medium... with 20-30fps.. Or recording videos of not games and using GIMP.. And using emulators..

But my experience is pretty bad

My i7 + 980ti are doing well for me, but I really need to upgrade this 1080p 144hz monitor to a 1440p 144hz one. I'll get one eventually, just a matter of saving up  :lol:

Abso-f**king-lutely magnificent.

 

Although I do need a better mouse. This razer naga is just making me mad with all it's buttons that may or may not work on certain games.

I'd say Very Good since I play on a 1080p monitor and a GTX 970 + Xeon E3-1231v3 can play every game I have at 60 fps ultra other than Witcher 3 and Arma III.

The Witcher 3 and GTA 5 working great with a AMD FX-6300 and a GTX 960 on 1080p. I don't need Ultra mega 4k Graphics.

Very good. Does it play all of my games at ideal levels? No. But its not really my computer's fault that my preferred games are all single threaded, poorly optimized, early-alpha releases. If anything, my computer actually handles my nonsense pretty well. It doesn't get much better than a 4770k with a nice overclock. Unfortunately it doesn't matter if you have a 5960X or a G3258, one core is one core, and I don't see Skylake bringing much more to the single threaded table. As far as raw GPU strength goes, a 295x2 plows through most anything you throw at it.... as long as it supports crossfire. Sometimes I can get non-supporting games to use xfire as well, but the scaling isn't always perfect. Again, I don't have any issues with the average AAA title, 1080p 60FPS max settings are no issue. Its mostly indie games that give me headaches.

Very good.

I'm really happy with my recent upgrade to SLI 970, and my older 2600k still kicks ass!

Although, to be honest, for some recent releases you could say my experience isn't very good, looking at you, batman :P

If i still had my CF 7850s. Awful

 

But now it is goodish. Not great. But it does the job just fine
