Anyone playing with a GTX760?

If so how is performance at 1080p? Can it hold a stable FPS above 60-70fps mid-late game?

    I am and for the graphics side of the game 760 works great. Not sure what the price is now but with the new AMD 2xx series I might wait for the price to drop a bit. This game is more reliant on your CPU then GPU anyways. Typically above 100 early game then mid to late game it varies based on the map I've seen it dip into the 40's.

    Is that max graphics at 1080p? What CPU do you have?

    It is completely dependant on your CPU. My 670 is never the weak link.

    I have a 780... a little more powerful than a 760, but it's very rare that I ever get below 60 fps... usually it gets up past 100.

    I'm on a 770 now, which easily holds 140+ most of the game. Before that I was on a 570 and I rarely dropped below 70 iirc. Neither of these are the 60 series but I'd assume that the 760 performs as well/almost as well/maybe even a bit better than the 570?

    I have a 670GTX which is the same GK104 architecture (benches higher than the 760 by a smidgen on most tests). 200fps RR, 130 in game, late game never lower than 70ish unless there are a million particle effects. The big factor in this game is still CPU. I'm running on an i5 3750k OC to a mild 4.2ghz.

    well x70 is better then x50 on nvidia in most games. (meaning a 670 can do better then a 760)
    But depending what you enable rates shouldnt trash that hard.

    I run a 570 and I can enable quite a lot on stable rates of well around 80+ > deep 100.
    Biggest ones are still shadow, occlusion and a 3rd one I cant remember.

    Probably atmospherics.

    I'm using the 8350 was hoping for AMD next gen to be released Q4 but looks like it got pushed back till 1H 2014 due to fab issues.

    Ohh yea, the reason I said to wait was the 290X passes the titan and is $499 if I recall. Not sure if it has been released yet but they say anything past 3K shaders is pointless unless you are running 4K

    GTX 770 in full HD get raped with particles. Its just horrible when there is medspam, firing, enzyme etc at same time.. I have 144hz monitor so it does matter a little bit :D Other than that its fine.. Using lower resolution like 1600*900 or using low particles (it will ruin your tracers) in the menu will help. CPU load have been tweaked a lot in a year.. Finally there is and will come more price drops.. just looking 780GHz (should be cheaper than 780 & 290x right now) or maybe fully enabled titan 780 TI

    For 60hz gtx 760 should be fine

    I use a 780, so now I'm always CPU limited (i7 860 at 3.8GHz). It's rare to drop until 120fps, unless it's late game in a high player count pub with spammed stuff everywhere. I use lightboost and adaptive vsync at 120Hz.

    As has been alluded to, don't got for the 760, go for the 670 if you can. Or save up a little more and make the most of the recent price drops at the high end due to some good competition (finally!) from AMD.

    670 is already discounted in most stores and those that do carry are charging almost double the cost of a 760. Doesn't seem practical for a 2-3 fps gap.

    GTX 580 w i7 990x @ 4.6
    GPU was never the bottleneck.
    Good ole' LUA code.

    On full res with everything enabled minus atmospherics I get like 100fps on average in game. Drops a lot end game.
    I play on 720p everything low except for detail and textures to maximize fps for comp. I get around 150-200 fps on NSL maps.
