Increasing resolution to 1440p is something a number of PC gamers are doing today. We tested the GeForce GTX 970 Zotac AMP!

These were, Low: 61 FPS, Medium: 48 FPS, High: 33 FPS and Ultra: 23 FPS. We then checked out Grand Theft Auto VI which we predict would have a set of graphics results as followed, L: 23FPS, M: 18FPS, H: 12FPS, U: 9FPS. And another popular game was Resident Evil 3 Remake that returned L: 104FPS, M: 82FPS, H: 55FPS, U: 39FPS at 1440p. Getting popular modern games to run at 1440p on the GeForce GTX 970 Zotac AMP!
