I'm ignoring the GFE recommended settings. It wants to put me at 4k with low settings. I'm playing in 2k with a mix of high/ultra settings with v-sync on. Pretty rock solid performance wise. Using an Acer 28" 4k monitor with rest of system in sig. Hey, Kel! What's your system comprised of? (our of curiosity) i7-4770K @ 4.0ghz MSI Z87-GD65 MB Cooler Master Glacer 240L for cpu
16g of G.Skill Sniper DDR3 1866 Nvidia RTX2080 FE Win7 64 Samsung 850EVO 500g SSD - boot drive and primary games I play are kept
Seagate Barracuda 1tb HDD - storage and other games I play when I feel like messing with them.
Started looking to updating cpu/mb/memory. Just need to decide on an AMD or Intel build.

I had a 4770 (stock version) when they were first released. Great CPU....unfortunately, I paired it with a totally shite botherboard (yes I said "botherboard") the Maximus VI Anti-Hero....Had nothing but problems with that board for the 2.5 years that I had it. Severe Bios issues, major bloatware, 2x defective RAM slots, GPU socket sagging, PCB warping....All of which I had to RMA it for, and three times they lost my board down in Mexico....said they never received it though I signed for it at the post office for insurance and tracking purposes. What should have taken two weeks to repair, took three months...and nothing was ever fixed properly. To say I loathe ASUS is not a strong enough verb. When I built my current rig in 2016 I switched to Gigabyte and have never had one stitch of problems of any kind with it. And GSKILL is my go-to choice for RAM as is Samsung for SSDs or M.2s
I have also had terrible luck with AMD. The one and only chip I bought way back in 2002....In less than two weeks it got so hot, was so overworked and underpowered...it litterally fused itself to the socket of my motherboard. So I took it back to the guy I dealt with at the time who was a friend of my dad's and he built me the Core2Duo 2.2 Ghz from Intel. Ran that for five years with no trouble. Just personal opinion...But if you have the money, I would go with Intel. If you're on a strict budget, then AMD is the way to go.

GFE had set most everything to medium for me, and I have a decent desktop. GTX 1070, i5 7600k, 16 gig ram. I reset it to default settings and it runs pretty smoothly on high/ultra. Hi Ruggly! Thanks for your post and input....Many people have been kind to reply to my thread/post. Thanks for your input. And hey, if you are lookin for someone to fly with next week...Look me up on Origin: Rumbler1138
