doubletake :
That's not really a valid question. You need to specify what games you play and what image quality settings you hope to play at. Better yet, use the search bar up top to look up the GTX 960 performance review.
The games i want to play most aresome 7th gen games: Far Cry 3, Dead Island.
8th gen: GTA V, Battlefield 4, Hardline , Outlast, Dying Light, Far Cry 4, SW Battlefront, Mad Max, etc.
Some online games: League of Legends (the game i play the most).
In some cases like Lol, Outlast, Dead Island i'll want to max out of course, but in the rest specifically GTA V, Battlefield and Dying Light, i'll be super fine with High Settings. I think Ultra and High/Very High are not that diferent and High gives much higher fps. Also i still dont know but i may turn off those super advanced settings like MSAA, etc. (I may only leave them on).
Or i just put optimal settings in every game. (Nvidia Experience).
