Graphics card that will max out any game at 1080p 60fps?

[Daedurus]

Looking to get a card that can max out most, if not all games at 1080p.
I'm scared that i may get a card that would be overkill for the system i'm planning to buy.

The most demanding games that I play are pretty much just GTA V and Overwatch (especially Overwatch i would love to play it at Epic settings 60fps with a bit of headroom in fps)

Going to be pairing it with an i5 6600K.
Thanks in advance!

Honestly, Your need to max everything at 1080p 60 is a weird one. There are places in games where a 1080 or even Titan can't hit 60 FPS for brief periods but at the same time a 970 can max most games (including overwatch) 95% of the time.

If a 1070 is too expensive then a 1060 6GB is the next option (or an RX 480 8GB, depending on price). The alternative is a used 980 or 970 or R9 390X which you can get for way less than a 1060 but it will not max everything, just most things right now.

OVerwatch is not a GPU heavy game. GTA V is a little heavier. Neither of them are Crysis or The Division Heavy.

For under, say $180, you could go with an AMD R9 380X or for around $200, an AMD RX 470, or RX 480 for under $250. 😀 Any and all of those would work just fine.

This is kind of a strange question, as you should consider your budget. You will want to buy the best card that your budget will allow. Every game is different, and as some have pointed out even a 1080 wont max out every single game with the highest settings all the time. Currently overall, the Rx 480, and 1060 are geared towards 1080p. The 1070 is geared towards 1440p, and the 1080 is 1440p, and 4K. If you only want to run 1080p on current games, then get a 480, or 1060. If you want to run maxed out games next year as well, then a 1070 might be the better option.
