[QUOTE="mitu123"][QUOTE="FelipeInside"][QUOTE="mitu123"] With MSAA Far Cry 3 would destroy your gpu's VRAM!
[/QUOTE] I played Far Cry 3 on mostly high at 1920x1080. Crysis 3 MP Beta Demo I could play with everything on low...but even then it struggled. It's mostly my CPU though (the Q6600).[/QUOTE] Without AA of course, which is barely over 1GB, once AA is added, it's game over. Also DX9 or DX11?
[/QUOTE] Yes, I had AA on the lowest settings. It was playable on DX11, but I put it on DX9 because I got better framerate.- Please wait. Quick reply will be available shortly.

Thanks for the fast replies. Does anyone know if Nvidia are going to release any new GPU's this year? I figure I can get another 570 GTX which will hopefully be able to max Rome 2 Total War, and then I can start retiring the 570's near the end of the year, since I doubt they'll be able to run games on high settings in 2014.
[/QUOTE] I still stand by what I said. Sell them now before the 570's price depreciates. That's what I'm doing with my 580. The further you go along, you'll find that the 600 series GPU's are a lot more efficient, temps wise too. The boost in performance compared to the 500 series is impressive. Hopefully this trend continues, but I doubt it. We'll probably see a 15-20% increase from 600 to 700 series. In that context, I'd say wait for Kepler refresh, buy that, and wait and see approach for Maxwell in 2014.
Of course, if you can't wait, get a gtx 670/7970.

Yup, this. In most cases, but I believe the jump from 500 to 600 series was huge at 40-50% gains. That was an exception though.
