I'm playing through Watchdogs 2, eye candy all the way up minus a couple things like fog and AA is down a bit in my sig rig. 1080p 60hz. Frame rates between 30-55 fps, usually around 40-45 frames. I know the game is not a great PC port and it might take a bit more than it should ( GTA V runs 59 fps ultra settings easily ). OG Watchdogs runs 45-55 fps with everything turned up.. I've never played the Farcry's and they are likely next on my list, so the same issue will likely exist
Is it likely the stock clocked X5670 holding back? Or could I get a 1070-1080 and have a decent improvement? I know that my processor being locked to stock clocks is a limiting factor. I know there's a virtual wall where my processor cannot support a better graphics card, but I'm not sure the wall is @ a 1060 6gb, and how much higher I can go.
