Nice, gratz!
Depending on your resolution, at 1920x1080 you will need to find a high-ultra mix if you want to stay above 40 FPS in raids.

Ill have to check but i think i run 1680x 1020

[KillerPotato]

How big is your monitor ?

[Evolutious]

Pretty sure that resolution should be 1680x1024. My guess is probably a 21-24" or so? But really the size of the display does not have as much impact to performance (if any) as the resolution of the display does (more pixels, more power needed to light 'em up).

Gratz on your upgrade! You are gonna need it come Legion

1680x1050 is my resolution. This 960 isn't doing as great as I thought it would. WoW recommends "Good" settings for most of my graphics settings. I have most of them to ultra and still stay maxed in raid, but I'm not sure what's going on. I have FXAA High and Vsync on as well. Liquid, Shadow, and SSAO are all turned down.

22" monitor

p.s.
My wife made me write this "Thank you honey, you're the best"

she bought it

Honestly, WoW recommends "Good" setting on my SLI G980Ti pair.... Yeah right!I have no idea what WoW looks at to determine the recommended settings, but I would ignore that.

I would also run MSAA 8x or 4x instead of FXAA. it is much better quality and performance (especially with Nvidia!). Crank it the slider to Ultra, set the AA to MSAA 8x with V-Sync ON then go to the Advanced options and ensure you have the Graphic API set to DX11 Resample to Bileaner and you should be in good shape.

good is a good setting if u wish to stream with that gpu for proformence if you can get over 40 fps while streaming with that gpu on good your doing good ul see 80-90 fps when ur idle but ul drop to 40 id say when ur streaming . Outside of raid ultra all day long if ur questing just messing around in wow . Outside of wow games like (arma 3 gta 5 etc.) that gpu can candle ultra with no problems

also run your HEAVEN dx11 benchmark program you should of gotten with ur gpu if you havent gotten it the standard program can easly be downloaded for free to see what your comp can handle with ur new gpu you can set this program to determine most ultra games (AA ,fps distance etc ) and how well you comp and cpu will handle it:)

you might need to tweek a few things on obs and in game to min max ur stream since u have a new card installed so you dont get tears or drop frames. Jeramydwayne from the pm team would be the fella to ask about that since he probley the most exp streamer in guild in my opion

hope this helps u bud exprience ur new epic gpu to the fulliest

Gonna give these a shot on my 970 as well.
