Yes.
Also, people really shouldn't worry about V-sync. This is not DX12 and neither is it a UWA, you'll have about 10 trivial options to get any V-sync (or lack thereof) behavior you desire.

How about an MSI GT80 Titan SLI?
2 980m's in SLI (total vram of 16 gigs)
Intel i7-5950HQ @ 2.90 Ghz
32 gigs of RAM
You think I can max out the game @ 2650x1440 res and 60 fps?

Sounds good

I'm fairly confident 4K @ 60fps should be possible. I mean, the game looks like shit but at least the frame rate should be nice.

Got a 980m on my laptop. Would be nice to play this max setting at 60fps/1440p or higher without the need for antialiasing. Definitely wont be turning on motion blur and depth of field that should save me some frames. Hopefully using adaptive vsync will give me a boost in performance as well.

Would be nice if they could get some decent AA in there to combat the shimmering. Fallout 4 has spoiled me.

Yeah, they only collaborate with Ubi or other big western companies :-/

Minimal difference between a lot of those settings
AA is rubbish as usual
Hopefully it runs well at least

Pro tip: If you're making a performance video make the OSD bigger than you'd usually play with so it's readable after YouTube butchers the quality.

If this game allows 60 FPS @ 1440P with a single 980 Ti, I'll be stoked. I'm sure some settings might have to be turned down but that's fine.
To be honest I've seen better looking shit, but we all know that's not From's forte at this point.
Except Bloodborne. That game was gorgeous.

I wish people would upload to sites like gamersyde for these kind of videos.
I don't think you'll need to turn down much of anything, if this report is reliable.
That chromatic aberration though.

Well, in worst case I play 1080/60 until then...All I need is to finally play this game.
I don't know, some of those screenshots of DS3 are downright gorgeous.

Oh yea that sucks. What AA technique did Bloodborne use?

Just a side note: unless something has changed VRAM does not stack
Kamina

Correct, nothing changed.
But that game doesnt look like it will consume much VRAM, even at 4k
It says you can start and play the game with reduced framerate (higher load times), it doesn't say how much slower it is.
The nothing one. It's just raw 1080p IIRC.
I can get that people are more or less "sensitive" to such effects, but damn, to not see the amount of colours shifting happening in that shot...

I noticed this exchange in the gamestar forums between a forum member and one of the authors (Jan Purrucker):
Question:
Answer:
So (and excuse my awful grasp of the German language) they are not prepared to make any statements about 21:9 support, because they do not have access to a 21:9 monitor?

I'm seriously considering getting it on PC instead of PS4, but I'm not really sure if my R9 270 is good enough for this.
Yep, they didn't have a 21:9 monitor while testing the game.
Exactly.
Kamina

Correct, they will however keep that in mind for the full release review.

From the video, it seems like most of the differences between max and low settings are minimal. High VS Max is almost non existent. Especially for textures.
That's great because i have a 960 2GB. Since it needs more than 2GB at max, i think i can have the same experience at high settings/1080p.

Should be even possible with a 970 with a few settings lowered (antialiasing) , don't worry about your 980ti.
R9 280X over here, hoping the same.
You could always pre-order on Steam and refund it if it doesn't match your expectations.
How about my 960m then? 60 fps at 1080p with some sort of AA (there's some intel i7 laptop CPU in here I can't remember the name of, think it's like 3.x GHz)? Or am I better off getting the game for PS4? The good thing getting it for PC would be that I could play when the GF is hogging the TV, otherwise I'll just get it on PS4.

Lol, what anti-aliasing? Every polygon & alpha edge is a staircase in Bloodbourne

R280X shouldn't even be a question when comparing it to the PS4 version. As they mentioned in the video. A GTX 760 is enough for 40-45fps in max. settings. The R280X is above the 760X so with a little bit of tweaking it is 1080p/60fps on PC. Not talking about other benefits here (free multiplayer with a big playerbase, mods, etc.)
The GTX 770 is 5-10% faster.

Yeah, that would be unfortunate. Seems to be built in to the engine on previous titles. It's really distracting when creatures off in the distance are scouting the area at 15 fps on a PC title.

The 770 has more shaders and higher bandwidth. Edges out the 960 by a small margin.

This and No Man's Sky are the only new releases I'm looking forwards to where I'm worried about how my 660m is going to perform. I'm hoping to build a beefier computer later this year, but for now I'm just hoping my ASUS Rog hangs in there. It hasn't really let me down so far.
Maybe youtube is shit, but even in the side by side I paused it and seriously could not tell a difference.
Youtube is shit...
How will a R9 390 fare? Pretty well I hope.

I'm surprised too. Though I'd have to stick to 30fps with my 7950 but now I guess 60 looks doable with High settings.
