970 powerful enough?

[1_thing]

So I want to invest in 2 more monitors for my setup. All will be  all 1920x1080 so 5760x1080 in total

 

I will be playing stuff like Project Cars, Dirt Rally and Assetto Corsa.

 

Will a 970 be powerful enough to handle these at 60fps ish??

 

thanks in advance

The 970 will run out of both the VRAM and GPU horsepower. Its got only 3,5GBs of full-speed memory, for such resolution you need a more powerful GPU solution such as the GTX 1070.

It might struggle to keep a stable 60 FPS, I would recommend you start looking for a GTX 1060 6GB or GTX 1070 8GB.

If mid-ranged cards were considered, an RX 480 8GB or an R9 Fury would both be better choices than the 1060 6GB for around the same price, but I don't believe those would suffice for 60FPS Ultra.

5760*1080 is 25% less than 4K.

 

GTX 970 is meant for 1920x1080.

 

Well if you turn down all settings to low it should work at 60fps but I don't think that will be great user experience.

Even GTX 1070 would strugle with taht resolution, because GTX 1070 can handle max settings at 2560x1440. But 5760x1080 require 40% more power.

Your best bet would be Titan X Pascal or GTX 1080. Anything below that won't give you 60fps at ultra settings. At least not for all games.
