This year is already the end of the Lunar New Year. In the morning when I was at work, I found that the bus traffic and people flow were sparsely populated. The sections that normally need to be congested for a long time nowadays seem to pass without any effort. It seems as if we were the last to be selected to stay in Guangzhou for press work By.
By this time, our annual summary, Hengping have been serialized, but last night suddenly thought of another measure from the point of view of the past, that is, to find out that we have tested all the games last year, and then find out the most Close to 1080p resolution, 60 FPS average frame rate, the highest quality graphics card.
The significance of doing so is that, although we all know that spending more money to buy more advanced graphics can certainly get better picture quality, smoother frame rate, but If you just want to achieve 1080p / 60FPS, what graphics card to meet 2017?
In fact, there are similar logic in the NBA, for example, 'Mr. Average', according to all the players in the league's height, weight, age and age of joining the league to find the player closest to this indicator, if it is these two days Paul Pierce, who just retired at number 34, then shows that he represents the average player's health in the league.
The same meaning, If we say that in all of our 2017 game tests, the graphics card capable of meeting 1080p / 60FPS is the GTX 1060, which means that for 2017 this is the most economical video card for ordinary gamers and will not be affected by performance issues Experience, there will be no blind plus budget concerns.
We tested a lot of games last year, at least every month there will be a game evaluation, and after the selection of one of the beta version, beta version of the game, as well as video evaluation game, I found last year's test of 10 Paragraph game, I hope you can see the performance of these 10 games, the performance can meet the 1080p, 60 FPS needs of the graphics card can eventually be concentrated in a certain card or a few, so that can be considered to some extent ' Annual Graphics'.
Of course, because each test platform is not the same, we will mark the platform for each test.According to the usual test experience, as long as the processor has no bottlenecks, RX 480/580, GTX 1060 should be the last to appear the most frequent products .
I did not expect from the data we collected, this is not the case, because Each game will meet all the 1080p / 60FPS graphics card inside the nearest 60FPS graphics bold mark, the highest appearance rate is actually the cost-effective Radeon RX 470D, and then it is the GeForce GTX 1060.
This is contrary to my expectation, what is the optimization of the game in 2017 are good, or the performance of this card is underestimated it?
Let's take a closer look Among the three games Glory Battle, Sniper Elite 4 and Resident Evil 7, the Radeon RX 470D delivers the highest performance, 1080p, 60 FPS, and much more.
So what are the three games in common? I can think of these points, first of all they are the first half of 2017 games, was not ushered in a new batch of graphics release, the second is that they are not pure Sandbox open game, there is no open world, so there is a third point: their optimization is good, "Sniper Elite 4" DirectX 12 high efficiency, "Resident Evil 7" game space more compact compact, not Requires high configuration is also extenuating, and "glory battle spirit" optimization is not bad.
"Mass Effect: Andromeda", "Jedi survival of these two games require GTX 1060, although the former strictly speaking the average frame rate of only 57.8FPS - not 60 FPS, but may wish to relax a little. The former is well known Frost engine, performance and optimization are good, and "Jedi survival" optimization is not working when the failure, both games require higher performance.
In addition, "Dust 4" and "Predator" can meet the 1080p / 60 FPS with the GTX 1050 Ti, and the latter is better, the good is not like the works of CryEngine 3. And configuration requirements such as "ghost Action: Wilderness ", but also requires 60 FPS if the highest quality requirements, just need GTX 1080 to meet ah.
So it looks like you want to buy a game for the game graphics card actually not everyone think so high, what GTX 1070, GTX 1080, but after the new product comes out RX 470D or soon submerged.
In fact, if there is no mining, then RX 570 will be a very good performance graphics, but mining, you even the GTX 1050 are difficult to buy.
PS: It's a pity that the end of the "Assassin's Creed," "German headquarters" these games did not test.
