The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt (Polish: Wiedźmin 3: Dziki Gon) is an action role-playing video game set in an open world environment, developed by Polish video game developer CD Projekt RED. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt concludes the story of the witcher Geralt of Rivia, the series’ protagonist, whose story to date has been covered in the previous versions. Continuing from The Witcher 2, the ones who sought to use Geralt are now gone. Geralt seeks to move on with his own life, embarking on a new and personal mission whilst the world order itself is coming to a change.
Geralt’s new mission comes in dark times as the mysterious and otherworldly army known as the Wild Hunt invades the Northern Kingdoms, leaving only blood soaked earth and fiery ruin in its wake; and it seems the Witcher is the key to stopping their cataclysmic rampage. (Wikipedia).
We test with the highest image quality settings, although I have disabled the Nvidia Hairworks option specifically as it does kill frame rate on many cards. Graphics Preset is on ULTRA and Postprocessing is on HIGH.
I have played The Witcher 3 for around 85 hours and I have completed the single player campaign. I tested the game today by playing 4 different save game stages for 5 minutes each, then averaging the frame rate results for a real world indication of performance – one of the map sections we tested is one of the most demanding in the game and our results can be considered strictly ‘worst case'. The Witcher 3 is a dynamic world, so it is important to run tests multiple times to remove any discrepancies.
This is one of the greatest PC games ever released in my opinion, so I spent around a total of 48 hours benchmarking it for this review alone – it should be on your must have list, if you don't have it already.
At these high settings at 1440p, only the most powerful cards on test can hold frame rates above 30 at all times. The MSI GTX980 Ti Gaming 6G scores close to the top of the chart, just behind the Asus STRIX GTX980 Ti.
Very nice review, I almost regret not waiting for the Non reference model cards, but my card overclocks better than this sample , Plus that Green Geforce GTX logo pulsing through my corsair graphite 780T window is pretty pleasing to the eye. The Fury X driver optimizations can’t come quick enough, because right now it has well and truly been placed beneath heel of the GTX 980Ti non reference cards
This one is very tempting, considering it’s essentially the same as the G1 and Strix, but cheaper than either one. Very nice review, Kitguru, thanks!
I never imagined that the MSI would actually beat the Gigabyte and be cheaper…..very impressed.

Just got mine. Absolutely love it – it’s a great looking card. Hey – I just essentially got a Titan X for ~$600.
I just like the MSI GTX980 Ti Gaming 6G over the Gigabyte. Just MHO. And not a hint of coil whine either.
Great review ! Just got mine 2 days ago. Cannot wait to get all my component to finish my new rig, and see how works this beast 🙂
