Gaming PC build GeForce GTX 980 Ti EVGA Superclocked 6GB Edition, Core i5-6600K 3.5GHz, 16GB performance review

A PC with a Core i5-6600K 3.5GHz can run 130 of the top 1000 PC games released when it also has the GeForce GTX 980 Ti EVGA Superclocked 6GB Edition graphics card and 16GB system memory in it. This combination of hardware leaves the Core i5-6600K 3.5GHz as the weak point, when looking at what games it can play. You could upgrade that component enabling the system to run 786 games of our most demanding games list.

Hardware performance for these gaming components can be compared to one of todays most popular games, Resident Evil 8. In summary, 1440p resolution shows itself to be the optimum performance vs visuals for the GeForce GTX 980 Ti EVGA Superclocked 6GB Edition. While it can certainly get a strong 1080p Ultra of 48 FPS, if you want to move up to 1440p on Resident Evil 8 then we can see 1440p Low setting getting 96 FPS or the Medium returning 75 FPS. Change graphics settings up to High for 51 FPS and then Ultra gets 36 FPS.

2nd most popular game: Grand Theft Auto VI - In summary, while some might be tempted to play Grand Theft Auto VI in 1440p resolution with the GeForce GTX 980 Ti EVGA Superclocked 6GB Edition, we feel it is best placed at running at 1080p, where you could get the following frame rates - Low setting: 115 FPS, Medium setting: 90 FPS, High setting: 61 FPS, Ultra setting: 44 FPS.

3rd most popular game: Battlefield 6 - In summary, 1440p resolution shows itself to be the optimum performance vs visuals for the GeForce GTX 980 Ti EVGA Superclocked 6GB Edition.
