Nvidia’s new graphics cards are beefy. We learned at last week’s reveal that they perform better than the $1000 Titan X and cost several hundred dollars less. It’s a fine development for the PC gaming crowd.
One way to put into perspective what the GTX 1080 is capable of would be to show it running a popular upcoming game. That’s what id Software did withDoom. We’ve seenplenty ofDoomfootagein recent months, but never like this.
In this presentation,Doomruns between 120 FPS and 200 FPS at 1080p with V-Sync disabled. It’s an impressive feat, one that’s probably not able to be properly appreciated with semi-distant off-screen video. Still, it certainly looks good. And, it should be fast enough to placate those people who say the newDoomis just too slow.
