Considering Upgrading my GPU

[Burning Derp]

So I have a first gen Titan X (maxwell) on my main rig with a 1440p gsync 144hz monitor. I basically want to play Mass Effect A. On max settings with 144fps. Do you guys think a 1080ti can do that? I don't know if I should wait for next gen or upgrade now. 

 

What do you guys think?

no you'd have to go down to 1080p or lower some settings even for the 1080ti

The 1080 outperforms the Titan X so why would the 1080ti do worse. It is a better card.

It's impossible to say with any certainty, given Andromeda benchmarks are not available. But I would assume not.

So your cards gets about 115-120 fps average right now with the settings you want to play at?

no, my tittyx isnt all that great. i get 70-80 fps on overwatch max settings. I wish I was hitting 100+. I cant even play Mankind Divided...i get 11-14 fps on max settings. For Witcher I get 60-80ish fps. Drops pretty low actually on max. 

I spent 1300cad on a monitor, i want to play on max settings so at the time i spent 1200cad on a gpu. But now its feeling kinda underpowered tbh.

Well a 1080ti isn't gonna do that for every game but it will be better.

1440p at 144hz will be out of the question. Even for a heavily overclocked 1080 TI.

 

I anticipate 80 FPS average at best at that resolution and those settings.

 

I highly doubt we'll see consumer-level Volta this year, so if you want to upgrade I would do so now.

A well overclocked Titan X Maxwell is as good as stock GTX1080 so you won't be seen a huge deal of improvement going with the 1080ti, will it be faster? well obviously but not enough for what you want, I would say your card is more than fine enough to hold you until Vega/Volta comes then it will be an actually worth upgrade.

Titan Xm doesn't come close to a 1080. I have a gtx 1070 on my side VR rig and that hilariously outperforms my Titan. With my Titan overclocked and 1070 stock. Its sad. But yea, there is no comparison between TitanXm and 1080.

Then there is something wrong with your Titan Xm, mine gets 1580mhz core clock and 14k effective memory and it not only outperformed my brother's old 1070 FE oced but it really was as good as a 1080 at stock.

 

The music in this video is awful but it shows perfectly what I mean, compare the stock 1080 result with the properly oc'ed Titan XM they are pretty much the same.

[Mick Naughty]

Think the results are all subjective. 

 

My old cards pump out more frames with a lower frame time then my 1080 but that's only in half of the games I play. People tend to chance the wrong numbers anyway.

Hope I am too

 

I'm most likely going to purchase a 1080 TI myself, but I'm a realist not an optimist.
