Why would you guess that.
That card is the exact one recommended for Uber settings at 1080p, for 40+ FPS in the most demanding situation, on an old build.
Throw in a little OC if you haven't already, and you should be able to easily hit 50-60 fairly constantly.

what can I expect with this :
gtx 780 dcu2 OC
8gb ddr3 ram
i5-3570k at 4.2ghz
gaming at 1080p...

I'm not really picky. I guess medium settings? I do want to appreciate how beautiful the game world is, but it does have to be super-high graphics. Oh, and I'd like ti to run well with no frame drops.

Being that I still mainly play in 1080p, it seems my 780 should keep me easily in High settings.
Fiiiine by me.
Fiiiine by me.
60fps? 30 fps?
Your computer is pretty good, you're gonna be able to find a mix of settings that will make you happy, I guarantee it.

Sorry if i come across that, but i swear to you it's an honest question, and not a humble brag or troll.
Sorry again, if i'm coming off that way.

Are you sure? I was thinking 480p on low settings
Why high/med when a 970 is listed as Ultra? There's little difference between stock 780s/970s.

Anyone got any recommendation for 970 OC configs?

Something that isn't often mentioned is RAM. I have 8GB of 2400mhz RAM and I wonder if I should get either 8GB more or go to DDR4. Does it really make a difference?

That really depends on your specific card as every card (even from the same vendor or production day) is different.

PC Games Hardware has a preview of the PC Build:
http://www.pcgameshardware.de/The-Witcher-3-PC-237266/Specials/Technik-Test-1158845/
German so a quick and dirty translation
- Preview build so no final benchmark
- GTX 770/R280X is enough for Ultra
- 2GB VRAM is enough
- Config files offer a lot of tuning (view distance, shadow resolution, texture size)
- Great multithreading (used all cores on a 4790k)
- midrange GPU and 3ghz 4 core (intel) CPU is enough for highest settings and good fps
EDIT: Saw it already posted in another comment. Ah well. Repeat for visibility then^^

Waiting for the inevitable "so I bought two Titan X's... Can I play this on high settings in 1080p?"
Sounds quite optimized, not super CPU bound as I thought it might be. Good to hear.

Hopefully turning of DOF, Motion Blur, turning down shadows, and removing some other fx will help get 1080p 60.
Does Hair Works benefit from a second gpu used only for PhysX?

Was just getting ready to say it was time to retire the card too. Wooo. This makes me happy.

Thanks!
Can you comment on some of the screens here? I'm not seeing any AO. Do they not have HBAO enabled?

Even better will be the "i bought two Titan X's, and all i get is 22fps" and it turns out they are running 6 instances of the game, like that one other thread.

i'm guessing i can expect 1080p Uber settings with an OC'd 780

I don't think so. I think there's no hardware PhysX (the type you see in Borderlands for example). I don't think Hairworks can even be dedicated to a specific GPU for now.

With my i7 and 970 I wonder if I should play on high instead of uber so I can get a locked 60FPS. anything below 60FPS and I get insane screen tearing even with triple buffering and v-sync so I'd rather go for it locked.

Oh and for all you freaks out there:
VRAM usage in 5K and Ultra Settings: Maximum of 5,6GB. A lot of room left on a Titan X^^
In 5K or 4K?
Trying to run it in 4K on my SLI 970's and 5.6 is a little more than I am packing. (Or than the SLI 980'S from the chart are packing for that matter)

How would a GTX 760 Ti OEM fare for the witcher 3? Actually let me rephrase that, knowing it can't do Ultra, how does it compare to a GTX 960?

Ah, I have a gigabyte windforce 970.

That's for 5K
2,5GB in 1440p
Less than 2GB in 1080p
Nothing written about 4K (but considering that 5K is a lot more pixels than 4K -> 16 384 000 vs 8 294 400 ... your 3,5GB are maybe enough)
It was in the fall sometime, I forget the exact game, but this style, so maybe Batman? Turned out that Steam big picture mode was messing up and kept bouncing him to the game selection screen. So he kept starting the game again thinking it had crashed, when it was just running in the background.

PCgameshardware.de posted a Witcher 3 video [click me] . They are running the game in 4k (downsampled) on a single titan x (w/o hairworks). Just incase some wants to see it.
-In general they seem to be very pleased with the game (no day1 patch and no nvidia optimized drivers so far)
-Multicore CPU useage is good.
-The game doesn't seem to be very CPU heavy (they mention that they were able to downcloak their test CPU to 2 ghz and the game still ran good).
-High End GPUs can render the game in 1440p (ultra, w/o hairworks).
-Mid range GPUs run the game in 1080p (ultra, w/o hairworks).
-VRAM usage is pretty moderate: 2560x1440 ~ 2.5 gb vram (max usage).
-No loading screens.
-Tessellation is not that high (8x-16x), but it still looks good.
-NVIDIA Hairworks is very performance hungry and should only be used with high end GPUs.

So 750TI is bumped off the map for 1080p, huh? I'm planning a new build, I guess 960 and upwards it is.
Though at this point, I think I'll just wait it out for the next generation, dat process node shrink.
