EVGA GTX 780 3GB w/ ACX on 1680x1050 display?

[Dan Wijas]

So, I'm debating whether to purchase an EVGA GTX 780 with ACX cooling.
I've seen the benchmarks that were tested and I can dig the results that were shown on 1600x1900 displays.

Now, my monitor is a Hanns G HW22" with a max. display of 1680x1050.
I need to know whether the GPU performance will be significantly better than the performance peaked with 1600x1900 displays.

The games that I am looking to be playing soon are stuff like: Crysis 1, 2, and 3 -- Battlefield 3 -- COD: Black Ops 1 & 2 -- Skyrim -- Counter Strike: Global Offensive -- etc. etc. modern demanding games; and yes, I'm wanting to play everything on absolutely ULTRA settings.

I've been told the 780 will destroy almost any game on 1680x1050; but is it true?

It's important that I get at the least 60fps on the most demanding games. I'm hoping peaking from 60 - 150fps.





Here are my specs (this is a new PC I've bought parts for already, nothing put together yet until I get a GPU):

It is a total overkill for that resolution so you will get plenty fps.

power supply is also total overkill
