Posted October 21, 2015 Not very good for the settings/resolutions people like the play at now a days. Maybe for some lower end 1080p gaming. A GTX 680 can hold up to GTA V 60FPS at pretty high settings. A 480, youtube has plenty of benchmarks. As someone said above, if it performs similar to a 750Ti I can provide how that performs. i7-6700k Cooling: Deepcool Captain 240EX White GPU: GTX 1080Ti EVGA FTW3 Mobo: AsRock Z170 Extreme4 Case: Phanteks P400s TG Special Black/White PSU: EVGA 850w GQ Ram: 64GB (3200Mhz 16x4 Corsair Vengeance RGB) Storage 1x 1TB Seagate Barracuda 240GBSandisk SSDPlus, 480GB OCZ Trion 150, 1TB Crucial NVMe (Rest of Specs on Profile) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted October 21, 2015 Well... my 560 handles everything still pretty damn well at native res and low settings nowadays. I OC-ed it to get 60fps out of Witcher 3 though , and now it usually gets to 90 C in like 10 minutes . i5 4670k @ 4.2GHz (Coolermaster Hyper 212 Evo); ASrock Z87 EXTREME4; 8GB Kingston HyperX Beast DDR3 RAM @ 2133MHz; Asus DirectCU GTX 560; Super Flower Golden King 550 Platinum PSU;1TB Seagate Barracuda;Corsair 200r case.
