You should be able to run HIGH settings. Anything else is a gamble to speak of now.

All part s haven't arrived yet,but this is what it will be when it is built

I5 4690k W/ CM Hyper 212 so hopefully can OC To 4.3 if need be

Corsair Vengeance 8gb DDR3

ASUS Z97 PRO GAMER

MSI GTX 970 Gaming 4G(can overclock)

Plextor m5 128GB SSD + WD 1TB Blue

Seasonic M12II 620W

Corsair 400r

with a 980 u would hav easily gone to very high settings @ 1080p , and it is worth the extra price if u want eyecandy... and as u are spending so much already. There will be roughly 20% performance gain over 30-35% price gain if you go for 980 though.. but u dont hav to overclock your 970 to get almost base 980 output... but i think game will look great at high with around 40 fps in this rig.and y not 16gig ram??

all in all a great build.

No it's not worth the price. The price difference between 970 vs. 980 is VERY high ($550 vs $350) and the benefits are very low. I would rather add $150 more and get second GTX 970.

 

In terms of gaming, both 970 and 980 will run the game on max settings. Heck, even GTX 780 will do, just not a good frame-rate. The difference will be just single digit though.

 

And, congrats, PhantomShade.

That remains to be seen but in between a GTX970 / 980, the former is a good pick for 1080p gaming.

Also, from what they've shown, the game has some incredible NPC character models. Hope they're diverse throughout the game and not a copy/paste job using a handful of them.

 

They can circumvent the issue by alternating the various assets and finer details of the NPC. Getting 100% different look for each NPC would be time consuming (and resource intensive) though the attention to detail would be quite something else.

W3 is such a game that can never hit 60 on consoles

I doubt it'll maintain stable 30 fps

 

They managed to get The Witcher 2 running at 30fps stable for the most part on a XBox 360, should be able to get the same magic here too.

lol. kotaku already on it.

 

 

Today, the Xbox YouTube channel released a rad new video for the upcoming role-playing game The Witcher 3. There’s just one problem: it’s not actually running on an Xbox. Whoops.

 

Yep, despite that XBOX logo stamped on the bottom right corner of the above video, this is actually footage from the (presumably better-looking) PC version of the game. The easiest way to tell? You can run the YouTube video at 60 frames-per-second; the developers of The Witcher 3 (out May 19 for PS4/XB1/PC) have specified that the console versions are actually locked at 30 FPS.

 

A representative for developer CD Projekt Red confirmed to Kotaku this morning that this footage is indeed from the PC version.
