Poor Performance on Nvidia Kepler Cards
Firstly: great job CD Projekt Red. The 7 hours I've spent with The Witcher 3 have been greatly enjoyable, the game is amazing.
However, 7XX series Nvidia cards are not performing as well as they should. According to benchmarks, the 960 is besting the 780, which makes no sense.
I personally am running a 4670K 3.4 ghz core i5, 780Ti, 8GB RAM, Windows 8.1. Latest drivers and day 1 patch.
I have all post processing effects on, SSAO, hair off, and a mix of ultra, high, and medium graphics options. I'm getting an inconsistent framerate between 40-60.
The 780Ti should be marginally more powerful than a 970, but that card is putting up much better numbers. Kepler users would really appreciate some optimization for our GPUs. It's a little frustrating to put so much money into a card, and then have it under-utilized.
Dropping into the 50s occasionally is acceptable, but when we're getting down into the low 40s with an average of high settings... Not so great for such a powerful card. Even more so considering this game runs quite decently on the PS4, which isn't in the same universe in terms of power.
