31 Oct 2019 - Graphics card reviewed

While some games have more powerful requirements than this GPU, the GeForce GTX 780 EVGA SC Edition is only really challenged by the most demanding games released today, but normally it is more than capable of running games with a stable frame rate at 1080p. DirectX 11 gaming system requirements will be met by this gpu.

Here is a quick game performance synopsis for the AAA games played in 2019. In particular we focus on how well the GeForce GTX 780 EVGA SC Edition runs at Ultra graphics settings and what frames per second it is getting at 1080p, 1440p and 4K monitor resolutions. In terms of performance against the most demanding games today this graphics card can play 437 of the 1000 most demanding PC games beating their recommended requirements.

First we looked at 1080p resolution for the GeForce GTX 780 EVGA SC Edition performance to explore what sort of benchmarks it would achieve on the popular title Cyberpunk 2077 and predict it will deliver weak frames per second across the following graphics settings - Low: 54 FPS, Medium: 43 FPS, High: 29 FPS and Ultra: 21 FPS. We proceeded to look at Red Dead Redemption 2 to see how that compared and saw that it returned a playable 39 FPS at Ultra 1080p.

People are turning their increasingly more powerful graphics cards to the popular 1440p screen size so we tested the GeForce GTX 780 EVGA SC Edition to see how it performs on 1440p. First off we have researched Cyberpunk 2077 and predict it will be weak. The frame rates predicted for the game presets were - Low: 41 FPS, Medium: 33 FPS, High: 22 FPS and Ultra: 16 FPS. We added Red Dead Redemption 2 to our tests and saw it was playable with a 29 FPS at Ultra 1440p. And then researched Microsoft Flight Simulator leading us to predict 16 FPS at Ultra 1440p. Gaming at 1440p with the GeForce GTX 780 EVGA SC Edition is going to need to lower its graphics settings to medium on modern games.

How many years will the GeForce GTX 780 EVGA SC Edition graphics card play newly released games and how long until you should consider upgrading the GeForce GTX 780 EVGA SC Edition in your PC? 12-18 months of top end gaming is still left in this graphics card
