2GvSAP_Mohawk Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Anyone here using a GTX560Ti for DCS? If so, how does it handle the graphics load, specially down low while flying the Huey or the A10. I have an option to purchase a GTX560Ti at a relatively good price. I currently have a ATI HD 5870 1GB which runs my other sim RoF at maxed out settings without a hiccup, but DCS FPS is horrible. Researching the ED forums, it is a common consensus that DCS favors Nvidia cards over ATI. I know that moving from a ATI 5870 to a Nvidia GTX560Ti is as at best a lateral move, but the price is just right for me. And if it lets me play DCS at acceptable FPS, it will be worth it. My CPU is a AMD Phenom X6 @3.5GHZ and 6 GB of DDR3 RAM. Dell XPS 7100 = AMD 1075T Phenom II (6 cores @ 3.0ghz). 6 GB DDR3 RAM. AMD HD 5870 1 GB, Win 7 64 Bit, Track IR 4, X52 Pro, CH rudder pedals. 22" Dell Full HD LED monitor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suchacz Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 (edited) You won't see much difference in FPS... I upgraded my 4870 to 7870 with cca 30% FPS gain.

Esac_mirmidon Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 I have this card, GTX560Ti, with also a 2500K processor OC to 4.6 and 8 gigas RAM memory at 1600 with a 27 monitor running at 1920x1080. All settings are in high ( shadows, visibility, water, Heat blur). I have pretty good FPS inside A-10C cockpit, around 45-55 FPS in most cases, only when i turn on mavericks or tgp, at some point FPS could drop a little but only for a while. On UH-1H i have less FPS, around 35 FPS on ground runways and parkings to 45 FPS flying. i´m considering to purchase more powerful graphic card, 670 or 770 but i´m very happy with my actual rig.

Chainman31 Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 I also have a GTX560ti, I'm wondering if adding a second in SLI mode is better than buying a new 760? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devrim Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Hi. I have GTX560. Not Ti. But the box says it's overclocked to 900 Mhz. Anyway. My settings are the highest and I have no FPS problem in any module but UH-1H. Since last patch, FPS is gone down noticeably...

Davis0079 Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 (edited) evga760sc w/ acx cooler for $256 is overclocking and getting higher scores then the stock 680..... pretty bad ass considering the gtx680 was $500 at release..... keep in mind that a killer cpu is much more important in the flight sim world....dont buy a $800 card...put that money towards saving up for a i7 @ 4.3ghz ..........DCSis maxed out untill they multi-thread further....you will never runs mass scenarios till they move the AI and script system to their own core...or create a bubble system......unless you have three or more monitors runing at 1080....you will not see massive need for a titan with DCS right now.... http://www.legitreviews.com/evga-geforce-gtx-760-superclocked-w-acx-cooling-video-card-review_2240 skip to page 14 ...

IonicRipper Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 I might be wrong but I think higher video memory helps in games like DCS. I have a GTX 560 Ti at 1gb and a friend of mine just bought a GTX 660 at 2gb. The rest of our systems are very similar but he seems to run the game much smoother then I am. i5 4590 @ 3.77GHz | GTX 1060 6GB | 16GB 1600MHz DDR3 | 1TB HDD+500GB HDD | Win10 Home X64 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
