New Graphics Card Help!

But what am I going to do with the MB I've been saving all these years with an AGP slot? AGP is going to make a comeback any day now, right?

LOL :D

Task is not so much to see what no one has yet seen but to think what nobody has yet thought about that which everybody see. - E.S.

The fps increase is incredible. I'm increased the quality to full of most of my games to max and still no lag whatsoever. :D

 

The GeForce 1060 is a beast @1920x0180.

Where do I start? What should I do first?

I'll be installing the SSD as a secondary drive?

Yes as long as the motherboard bios can see it, so will Windows and any of the above migration tools.

 

Once you have booted into windows, run the migration tool. I recommend Acronis(via the Crucial promo link above) as its the only one of the above 3 I have personally used. Then just follow thier instructions

1050 Ti https://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/ASUS/GTX_1050_Ti_Strix_OC/ up&running here :D

 

DO NOT push over 1920x1080 and it's a great medium card (for now).

I say so cause I set Mirror's Edge Catalyst to (1920x1080)x4 - there's a convenient slider in options menu to simulate SSAA 4x - and that resolution is a real FPS killer :P

About the 1050 Ti / 1060 choice, this is the memory overclocked (2000 MHz QDR) 1050 Ti in MEC @1920x1080 with 1.50 scaling (!!!) / Ultra Preset / no PostProcessing AA (manually disabled in the config file):

36 FPS

Nice shiny and antialiased view, I'm happy :D

      Finally got my PC back from the shop after my SSD got corrupted a week ago and damaged my motherboard. Scary stuff, but thank goodness it happened right after two months of FM development instead of wiping all my work before I could release it. New SSD, repaired Motherboard and BIOS, and we're ready to start working on my second FM with some added version control in the cloud just to be safe!

      I've updated the articles for your FMs and your author category at the wiki. Your newer nickname (DeTeEff) now comes first, and the one in parentheses is your older nickname (Fieldmedic). Just to avoid confusing people who played your FMs years ago and remember your older nickname. I've added a wiki article for your latest FM, Who Watches the Watcher?, as part of my current updating efforts. Unless I overlooked something, you have five different FMs so far.

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?
