Letter from the Producer XLII

Only took 2+ years to hit 8k

Actually 10k was hit over two years ago, however it was expensive.
2x ATI Radeon HD 5970 (This is a dual GPU card)
Core i7 980X @ 4.64 GHz, OC

I created a spreadsheet listing people's results:

CPU performance hasn't changed drastically since then. What has changed is we can hit 8k high res with a single GPU now. Back then it was hard breaking 5k with a single GPU, AMD 5870 is around 5k high res provided you have enough CPU power.

It's crazy how cpu driven that was. According to that sheet I should be able to pull mid 6k though.

Ya it's CPU crazy, keep in mind that the benchmark has no AA and it's it was standard quality. My frame rate ranges around from 90-180 FPS on average closer to 180 FPS.
