What fps should I expect from a gtx1070+i5 6500 combination in 2560x1440 resolution

[SwallowFire]

I have been running il2 bos on my old laptop for long and recently i am thinking about getting a desktop.

So far my plan is to get a  60Hz 2560x1440 monitor and overclock it to around 75Hz. I was wondering if a gtx1070+I5 6500 combination will be able to keep the frame rates constantly over 75 fps. I mean over 75 fps even on the ground with several planes around you.

If that is not achievable then I will probably go for a gtx1060 and a 1080p monitor, saving about 300 euros.

I'd very much appreciate it if someone with similar setups can share with me such information. Thanks!

I have something pretty close to that and I was getting 120-130 on the ground and 150-160 in the air (online-random expert)  I was getting lots of tearing though so I put vsync on and that seems to lock your framerate to your monitors native resolution.  Seriously, do you need more than your monitor can handle?

hmm 

Imho GTX 9XX + Needs a good i7 unless someone here can show where a gtx 10XX can reach 100% usage without bottle necking the cpu.
I mean anything less than a good 4ghz cpu bottlenecks GTX780Ti (like in here)

Oh god... Just no...

With my system, which has the same specs of the monitor you are thinking of, I get ~120 fps at tree top level.  It is important to understand however that with a 60Hz monitor all you will ever really see is 60 fps.  It is the limitation of the monitor.

What?...

 

What i said is true and well long know fact.

Anytime you are gaming and your CPU usage hits 95-99% and GPU usage is 50-99% (THE SYSTEM IS BOTTLENECKED)

 

Anything better than GTX780 needs something better than a stock FX8350 to run it.

Be that a overclocked FX83XX or Medium to high end i7 @ 4Ghz +

 

Its Simple take a game like witcher 3 Maximum settings.

GTX780 GPU Usage 75-80%

FX8350 CPU Usage 95-99% (THIS IS BOTTLENECKED)

 

Many laptops sturggle even more

And i have seen people in IL2 complain about low FPS in a GTX10XX but i get liquid 50-75FPS in heavy combat on GTX780 ULTRA Settings.

 

Would love to see a video or screen shot showing GTX10XX Being used to 99% while Any i5 CPU is at only 50-60% usage and not bottlenecked.

Sorry, dude but the average user is going to gain nothing in terms of bottlenecks by purchasing a HTing processor. An i5 is completely capable on its own, let alone an overclocked i5.

 

Every time I've read something that you've posted related to hardware it leaves me scratching my head - you hypergeneralize things in a way that causes me to question your experience and authority on making those types of statements.

 

I've mentioned this before but I am a system administrator for a non-profit organization and a large part of what I do is testing sample hardware from different manufactures to determine what hardware fits best in our organization's use scenario, deployment situation, etc.

 

I also do a lot of side builds for people - one or two a month - and I am aware what hardware is capable of running what.

Yeah, a decent I5 is all you really need. I'm using a 3 year old I5-4690 (3.5GHz base, 3.9GHz boost clock) and see absolutely no reason to upgrade for BoS or DCS. The particular CPU you're looking at is marginally slower than my 4690, but I don't think it will be by enough to matter (passmark scores are 7161 vs 7579, higher is better). I'm currently GPU limited by my RX480. The RX480 is equal with the GTX1060 in DX11 (BoS/DCS use DX11) because AMD's DX11 driver isn't as well optimized as Nvidia's. Outside of DX11 (ie DX12, Vulkan, ect...), the RX480 is substantially faster due to superior hardware, though still a little slower than a GTX1070. I have no issues maintaining 60 fps under normal conditions in either BoS or DCS 2.0 on max or near max settings. The same is true of other more mainstream games. The Witcher 3, Fallout 4, Doom and others are all solid with this setup. Once again, the GTX1060 should do fine as well for the moment.

Thank you guys for the info. I think I will go for i5-6500+gtx 1070. As far as I know I don't this this CPU will bottleneck the gtx 1070. And overclock the monitor to 75hz is a must for me

[LLv34_Vellu]

BoS likes CPU GHz. I have i5 6600K which base clock is 3.5 GHz. When I overlocked it to 4.6 GHz BoS started to run more fluently.

I think that right now core i5 7600K is better choice than 6600K.

7600K base clock is 3.8 GHz and boost clock 4.2 GHz and its price is almost same than the price of 6600K.

w/ nsync on you should be at 60 fps.

Try Fast sync (forced via nvidia inspector on older cards)

 

Without tearing it will sync to either 60fps or 120fps

 

GTX780 and i get now with new settings

45-70FPS in 3D (90fps @ high alt)

80-120fps in map

Should I turn the ingame Vsyn off when using fast sync？
