I have a 1060 as well and do fine on fps, but I also have an i7 8700k CPU. The good news is either way the mega patch is supposed to include a significant performance upgrade, so even if you do nothing, things should improve. I would advise waiting to see how that goes, then if you still feel like you want to upgrade, depending upon your cpu, you might want to look there first. Also if anyone with greater technical knowledge tells you something different, ignore me and listen to them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nutcutt3r 173 Posted March 10, 2019 My rule of thumb is pick as much as you can afford, then wait a week/month and get a better one. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Percieval 1,067 Posted March 10, 2019 (edited) I would never get a 1080 now. It’s not that better. The 1080 Ti on the other hand, way and way better and the price difference isn’t too much.  And just for the record: That 30 FPS is not because of your GPU. Edited March 10, 2019 by Percieval Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

war machine 28 Posted March 10, 2019 (edited) I have an I5 7600k 32gb ram and a 2060  after setting it to 1080p, MY card runs 68-75 fps on max settings  u can get a 2060 rtx for 400 bucks my cpu never even maxes out 65% tops ram never hits more then 40% Edited March 10, 2019 by war machine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Percieval 1,067 Posted March 10, 2019 You really need to watch on VRAM though. This game surprisingly doesn’t eat away much RAM. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ivah BlackWater 58 Posted March 10, 2019 The GPU you have right now should be running Atlas decently. Now it also depends what your other components in your computer are. But you also have to look at your settings, not everything needs to be maxed out. Say like anything with sunshafts (turn that off, not needed and will help a ton) Shadows don't really need those maxed out. If you go through your settings and adjust some things you will see the same will run a lot smoother. As it was said there are suppose to be significant optimizations with this upcoming patch, so before you go spending crazy amounts of money I would wait. Unless you are playing other games and your gpu is really not living up to them. I was reading some about the new 1660 Ti's that are coming/out. And are decently priced.  Just my thoughts, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wichtelman 8 Posted March 10, 2019 (edited) my gtx 1060 6gb sits on 50-60% use most of the time = atlas is way more cpu intensive as it is gpu intensive... 100% use for a gpu is normal cuz it uses its full potential but 100% cpu use is bad...

Hexaron 28 Posted March 12, 2019 (edited) Zotac Extreme AMP! GTX1070Ti all settings max. 66-90+ FPS. Game is not optimized really good jet, so if ur not rich then GTX 1070ti is really good used one costs 250-340 euros. If you have money and u want best get RTX 2070 if you ask why not RTX 2080ti then in my mind its  overpriced.

DocHolliday 366 Posted March 12, 2019 I just remembered that my CPU is running at stock speeds. I was having trouble getting my 1080ti stable and reset the bios and upgraded it. Stable as can be now after the BIOS update, but I need to crank that baby up 500mhz. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hexaron 28 Posted March 12, 2019 (edited) I have laptop HP Omen 15.6 so i had to disable turbo cores in registry cause i7 8750H was in second 99c, but fps was even better with lower speed and ofc CPU temperature was 70C.  Then i  OC GPU GTX1070 both mem and Core 200Mhz in end i win 20FPS and lower Temperatures  So that laptop GPU didint heat so much at all only i7 lol. Atlas FPS is 55-70 Edited March 12, 2019 by Hexaron Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vorxius 249 Posted March 12, 2019 I have a Sinclair Spectrum running with 48k of RAM.  I still get 90+ FPS in crowded harbours. OK I'm at a rez of 2x3 pixels, but it's still 90+ FPS. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I tested Time Spy just now too so my GTX1070Ti got Graphics Score 7390.  I bought it for 320 euros and i think i can play with it more than year. lol im Happy my score is better than AMD vega 64.

LifelessGamer 17 Posted March 13, 2019 One that is the best deal.  I grabbed a GTX 1080 for $325 on ebay 2 years ago.  Really comes down to price and what you are willing to spend. Decide on what you want to run. 1080p? 1440p? 4k? What are you fps goals?  Ram means a big difference. I have 8gb on my card and have seen games use over 7gb without mods. Know what games require and plan accordingly.

Yep. 1080 is a good card yet right now, the Ti isn’t that expensive anymore and it is a lot better than the 1080. I would always get that one but then again, not everyone has the money. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
