rofl XD
well i wish you best of luck friend. pushing the limits of old hardware was something i was very used to, and i'm confident you can do the same. XD
still remember playing skyrim with a nvidia geforce GS 8400 with everything low and a resolution of 800*600 XDD
ah good times 8D
Hi there. New to the forums. I've got a pretty decent gaming laptop. Acer Aspire V17 Nitro, i7-4710HQ, Nvidia GTX 860m (overclocked), 16GB RAM. Currently running the Witcher 3 on mostly high and medium settings at 1920x1080 resolution (only bloom, sharpening, and light shafts turned on in postprocessing), and I'm achieving 30-40 FPS on average, which was a nice surprise to me. I thought for sure I'd need to scale most everything down to medium and low in order for the game to be playable. I'm still in the prologue area, so it remains to be seen if I'll be able to hold 30 FPS at these settings further into the game, but for now, I'm rather pleased.
I made it run with around 20 fps in 480x300 custom resolution. If we can actually enlarge the text by a patch later it will be surprisingly a pleasant experience for me too since I can completely eradicate all the hud as well
Interesting. How much do you overclock your gtx860m?I have similar hardware (i7-4810mq, nvidia gtx 860m, 8gb ram) and I can only run 30-40fps in medium to high settings at 1600x900 resolution with almost no post processing.I`m quite happy with how the game looks like, but any improvements would be welcome if possibleHi there.

behold the true advantage of the master race!
playable on an 8yr old card!
Good job mate
man that sounds pretty epic XDDD
oh and you could check this thread out : http://forums.cdprojektred.com/threads/36088-A-compendium-of-tweaks-and-fixes-for-the-PC-version
very useful for those who have trouble with the performance on their system ^^
it'll probably help you with getting more out of your GPU (maybe ?)
Nice It does feel smooth I admit, no framedrops. Without the fps counter I'd say it was higher than 30 for sure. Sometimes fps counters do weird things lol. I haven't tried hbao+ or hairworks and tbh I can see my system choking with that on. Though I have yet to apply my overclock profile and test it.
Are you on 3440x1440 too?
It's only 4 years old. I am still mad about the conole parity downgrades regardless. I don't have the best rig but eventually I will upgrade one day anyway and will be able to enjoy it in its full glory.

Yeah, thanks, checking it out, even 1 extra frame counts .

Do you mean how often by how much? Sorry, English not excellent Got pretty much EVERYTHING on low settings, except details and textures and I think I olny had Blur on. Still, I can`t bear less than 30 fps, so I didn`t get past the prelude at those settingsi remember buying a 9500gt my first gpu 6yr ago---------- Updated at 05:24 PM ----------before you sir fly away too, can you tell me howmuch you can do @ 1080p 25- 30 fps? thanks!
Would an AMD FX-8350 and GTX970 be enough for a stable run on HIGH? What do you guys say?

I would be interested in seeing feedback from other GTX 760 users as well, especially if they have had good results tweaking various settings. Last night I figured I should be able to play on High settings @1080p with around 40-45fps but in practice I had to lock my FPS to 30 with hairworks off (I'll have to confirm other settings when I get off work). Before locking I was seeing between 25-~45fps but the visual disconnect when frames dropped was...awful. Sub 30 frame drops rarely occurred after limiting myself to 30 compared to 60fps limit (didn't try unlimited). May not be a big deal but I only tweaked settings during the intro scene (Geralt in the bathtub) before finally limiting myself to 30 and playing the game. i5-4690k @3.5GHz 16GB ram GTX 760 4GB
