Gaming PC build GeForce GTX 980 Ti 6GB, Core i7-4790K 4-Core 4.0GHz, 32GB performance review

A PC with a Core i7-4790K 4-Core 4.0GHz can run 785 of the top 1000 PC games released when it also has the GeForce GTX 980 Ti 6GB graphics card and 32GB system memory in it. This combination of hardware leaves the GeForce GTX 980 Ti 6GB as the weak point, when looking at what games it can play. You could upgrade that component enabling the system to run 820 games of our most demanding games list.

The performance of these hardware components is best displayed in relation to the current most popular game, Cyberpunk 2077. In summary, 1440p resolution shows itself to be the optimum performance vs visuals for the GeForce GTX 980 Ti 6GB. While it can certainly get a strong 1080p Ultra of 58 FPS, if you want to move up to 1440p on Cyberpunk 2077 then we can see 1440p Low setting getting 117 FPS or the Medium returning 92 FPS. Change graphics settings up to High for 62 FPS and then Ultra gets 44 FPS.

2nd most popular game: Assassins Creed: Valhalla - In summary, while some might be tempted to play Assassins Creed: Valhalla in 1440p resolution with the GeForce GTX 980 Ti 6GB, we feel it is best placed at running at 1080p, where you could get the following frame rates - Low setting: 79 FPS, Medium setting: 67 FPS, High setting: 58 FPS, Ultra setting: 39 FPS.
