Do you fully utilize your graphics card's performance?

To be honest, SSAO is actually a pretty shoddy technique at simulating ambient occlusion (for various reasons, especially view dependency; search some of the more technical forums). Per pixel ambient occlusion is where it's at, but unless you have particular usage scenarios, it's typically too computationally intensive.
 
I will let you know once my Titan is here...I am getting in on the ARMA3 alpha on the 5th......ARMA has always pushed the boundaries more than any other game, however it does not have mass-appeal because the learning curve is longer, so it is definately not a run-n-gun.....but stunning open-world realism.

If you want to see what a GPU's made of, join a BF3 server with 64 players @ 2560x1600 on Ultra. That'll do it. Will also tell you a little something about your CPU.

Hey everyone, I was curious if we really need such powerful graphics cards for what we do (gaming, graphics work, university courses, etc). I just bought a graphics card recently to upgrade from integrated graphics and now I cannot find something to use it for! LOL.

If you think you have too much GPU, your monitor isn't big enough. Get 3 x 30" monitors and let us know if you still have too much GPU. 🙂
