Hey, I'm thinking of getting a new MSI 1080Ti Gaming X early next month (wanted to get the 2080 but decided it wasn't worth it in the end). This is my current hardware:
i7-4790k
MSI GTX 970
MSI Z97 Gaming 7 motherboard
Corsair Vengeance 16GB (2x8) DDR3 RAM
Antec VP650P power supply
I'll be swapping out the 970 for the 1080Ti and I was wondering if I'll be able to play The Witcher 3 with all settings maxed out and with Hairworks ON (and at max quality) at a minimum 60fps? I'll be playing at 1080p and my current 970 often struggles to maintain 60fps in this game with max settings. With a bit of tuning the settings I can get the 60 frames but only with Hairworks OFF. Once I turn them on, I get a significant loss of fps.
Will the 1080Ti be able to solve this problem at 1080p? I know this is a very powerful card but then again Hairworks is a VERY demanding feature.
Online I see a lot of guys who actually seem to prefer keeping Hairworks OFF because they say they actually like Geralt's beard & hair better that way, so this might not be a problem for some but I personally LOVE what Hairworks does to the beard, so this is important to me.
Any input would be much appreciated, Thanks in advance!
