That german benchmark posted on Reddit a few hours ago? They tested on Ultra settings. We should all know by now that the jump from Medium to High to Ultra can be nearly exponential in terms of texture sizes alone. Of course a 2GB card is going to crap out at Ultra. Plus, there are tons of individual settings you can tweak, some more resource-intensive than others, rather than applying a broad quality setting across all of it. The benchmark is still showing only a few fps away from PS4 performance, but with settings that the consoles will not be able to match, period.

I suspect you'd still be better off with the PC version. Yeah, you'll have to lower settings, but they won't be lower than PS4. Your card is vram-challenged, but even with console optimizations (in this case, I think the main differences will be AO, AA, draw distance, and textures), the PS4 is still GPU-challenged by comparison. I'm betting your 770 will look as good as PS4 but with a higher frame rate. That's what I'd aim for.

I wish I got it on PC, but I preordered it months ago on PS4 and they don't do refunds plus I had a $15 credit so it only cost me $38. Oh wells.



I'll just torrent it on PC down the road.

But at that point the visual difference is very minimal. Anytime it's close I just assume play it on console.
