GPU comparison

Hi guys,

 

Im still debating my pc build and have not pulled the trigger on ordering parts yet as im constantly in a debate with myself over what parts/cost etc. 

 

Anyway im interested in a £1000ish build maybe a bit more as prices have increased a bit recently.

 

I am currently playing sim games @ 1600/900 on a 2011 laptop with a 555M and getting around 20 - 30FPS obviously depending on game settings. 

 

Im looking at 1080p with a 1060 6GB but im interested in what real world performance increase i would be seeing 

 

I can imagine real world the difference is night and day but interested on what others have experienced.

 

Thanks.

Purley performance wise, the 1060 is about 400% more powerful than a full 555, much less a 555m

A lot.

You can even get a 1070 with a pretty decent processor that can do more than 1080p

60fps on all game guaranteed with maxed out settings
