Max Settings on a GT 740M
by bpetit » Mon Oct 05, 2015 12:40 am
So, just for fun I wanted to see how well the card would cope (or burn up ) with everything at max. I used the FEF-3 and the RWA route. What I got was interesting to say the very least. Anyway from 30fps to 40fps which surprised me. I was expecting it to be much, much lower. I just wanted to share this experience.

Are you gentlemen just trying to cause trouble?

Did you have the anti aliasing stuff pushed wide open also? I'm curious what settings others are using there?

Don't even know if my card has such a thing.
I just push all the sliders on the main part to max."If you really needed a diesel locomotive right away, then go ahead and order a ALCO. But if you could wait for real quality, then go for an EMD or a GE".
