The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980 Ti Review
by Ryan Smith on May 31, 2015 6:00 PM ESTDragon Age: Inquisition
Our RPG of choice for 2015 is Dragon Age: Inquisition, the latest game in the Dragon Age series of ARPGs. Offering an expansive world that can easily challenge even the best of our video cards, Dragon Age also offers us an alternative take on EA/DICE’s Frostbite 3 engine, which powers this game along with Battlefield 4.
Meanwhile on an absolute basis what we find at 4K with Ultra quality is that the GTX 980 Ti is once more hitting framerates in the 40fps range. At 40.7fps the GTX 980 Ti is the only other single-GPU card to average better than 30fps at these settings, with the next-closest card being the GTX 980 at exactly 30fps. Otherwise users looking for higher framerates can either turn down the quality setting one notch to high, which gets us 52.6fps, or drop down to 1440p, which is good for 77.9fps.

He was highlighting incorrect grammar, not a typo. Btw, that should have been "it's", not "its", for the same reason. ;D My old English teacher would have used bullets for such errors if such as allowed...mapesdhs - Wednesday, June 3, 2015 - link
...and of course my own typo of 'as' instead of 'was' once again shows how annoying it is that in 2015 we still can't edit our posts on AT. :\FlushedBubblyJock - Wednesday, June 10, 2015 - link

Yes but the 980ti is still untouchable basically so 28nm or not...ComputerGuy2006...show me something better ;)Flunk - Sunday, May 31, 2015 - link
lower nm = more transistors in the same space = more performance, and possibly reductions in heat and power usage. There is only so much they can do on the 28nm node, which is why the next generation will likely utterly massacre the current one. 4K will be feasible at a reasonable price point.Refuge - Monday, June 1, 2015 - link
Depending on yields, lets not get too excited yet.I'll be excited when I get the email from Amazon saying my GTX1000TI is going to be here in two days and says I only spent $500 after rebate. :)
