Anyone here play pc, and has a gtx 960? Do you get good frames near 60 when playing games like witcher, battlefield, and shadow of mordor?

I have the GTX 970 on ultra setting I'm lucky to get 60fps, mind you my cpu and ram are probably bottlenecking.

Thanks, they both look nice. I'm not really into elves and magic so I might give Fallout 4 a go.

Haha how violent is your limit? Fallout 4 has slow motion skull explosions and bags full of dismembered limbs/organs lying around >.<

Currently I've been playing a lot of Fallout 4 and just finished getting the platinum trophy. I also play a bit of Dying Light, and Helldivers with friends.

I'm messing with the new Tomb Raider right now. I really do hope they keep making these. I love solving those little puzzles.

Bit late to reply but I have a gtx770 which I think is only a little more powerful than a gtx960. Battlefield 4 and Shadow of Mordor I can run comfortably on high/ultra settings at 1080p/60+ fps. Can run Witcher 3 on 1080p/high settings between 40-60fps most times.

I have the GTX 970 on ultra setting I'm lucky to get 60fps, mind you my cpu and ram are probably bottlenecking.

Definitely seems that way. A gtx970 should easily manage 60 upwards on those three games, except maybe Witcher 3 with hairworks on.

Finally got my hands on SOMA and finished it last night. Definitely one of my favorite games from last year.

Street Fighter 5 has no proper arcade mode?

What a joke, Capcom should be ashamed.

Does Capcom know that word? LOL

I loved that game. really enjoyed the story, and the abyss part was really scary (that anglerfish...) but i think it lost some of the exloration (and puzzles) that Penumbra and Amnesia had.

This looks intimidating. Why do all the enemies have to be like Shaquille O'Neal on PCP? You cant get within 30 feet of those guys without getting swiped.

As it should be, wouldn't be Dark souls otherwise...and we both know that invaders are far more a pain than monsters.

Yeah, the character is always a midget next to pretty much everyone else in the world hahah

But I don't know, those devs exploring the concept of small and hard to hit but still tough as hell enemies, like the pigs in Majula from DS2... Maybe it's best this way.

So this might sound silly, but I cant think of a better place to ask. Does anyone ever experience anxiety from multiplayer? Its the main reason I cant enjoy things like Titanfall or other shooters. And now friends are egging me on to get into Overwatch. But I always feel under pressure (not the fun kind) to not suck at it. I feel like Im letting people down if I dont know what Im doing.

Oh yeah, big time.

Titanfall less than others, due to your performance being somewhat hidden by carnage and chaos. But team games like Halo and GTA Online is definitely something I'm uncomfortable with most of the time. Even in free roam games/applications like Minecraft and Second Life.

The worst of it is that many VR games seem to want to head into a multiplayer direction where your head, hands and voice are tracked. It may end up being good social practice, but I find the idea rather intimidating.
