Battlefield V with 5760x1080

[ahopper14]

My pc specs are an i5 7400, nvidia gtx 1060 3Gb, 8gbs ddr4 2400, a wd 1tb HD’s, and a bad 300w power supply. I hear the new battlefield game needs about the same specs as battlefield 1. But do I need any upgrades for new games coming out in 2018 and up to run on 5760x1080 on high to ultra? If so what should they be. I am already planning on getting a new power supply. I only got 2 ram slots and both are filled tho.

Your 3gb 1060 will prevent you from getting ultra at its best especially at that resolution, you will run out of VRAM which slows the ultimate speed down.

So would a 1060 6gb work?

It would make a noticeable difference because of the resolution and number of textures specifically. That said its kind of a small incremental upgrade. Any chance you can swing a 1070 or 1070ti? I don't see the value in that small of an upgrade.

That's three-quarters of the way to a 4K resolution. A 1070 is the bare minimum I'd go with, I'd much prefer 1080 if you're trying to play upcoming AAA games at high quality.

A 1060 6gb will run bf1 at least 1080p 60fps no problem ultra settings if bf is about the same a 1060 will do for 1080p. I'd at least get a 1070 for future proofing if at all possible

The problem is hes at 3x 1080p, the 1060 6gb will do it, but really kind of a waste of money based on his starting point. 1070 minimum 1070ti preferable or 1080.

Definitely agree with the need for a higher tier GPU; you won't see an improvement that's worth your time and money by investing in a 6 GB 1060 model. Considering that your 3x1080 setup is nearly TWICE the pixel resolution of 1440p, I'd consider how well the 1060 6 GB does with your standard 1440, and use that to corroborate my claim.
