Hello i went out and got a new gaming pc for the upcoming Battlefield 1, i want to know if i will be able to play the game at ultra and stay above 30 fps or more. the specs are, MSI Tiger OC GTX 960 4GB, intel core i5 6402p 2.80ghz Skylake quad-core, 8gb DDR4 ram. i can run battlefield 4 at ultra settings with over 60 fps at all times somtimes staying the the 90s and more on certain maps.
 
Solution
If the goal is 30fps or more on Ultra, then you will be ok with new BF1. I do realize nobody knows how GPUs will do in that game cuz it isn't out yet. But my experience going from BF2 to BF3 to BF4 was that I would go from Ultra 60fps to High each generation. So, if you are getting good numbers now on Ultra then I would expect you to get similar on High in new game, maybe slightly lower. But don't expect 30fps on Ultra in BF1 with your setup.
