What vid card are you guys using to play RIFT?


My current one is an 8800GT and can pull it's weight on the lowest settings, but i'm looking to upgrade. Anyone have any thoughts on this 460 GTX?

So far, the 'ultra' setting and the 'min' setting have NO difference on lag, its only the Shadows. I get like 15fps max/min, but 9fps with shadows. Others report something similar

I'm on a 9800 GT I get an average of 25-35 fps on ultra.

On the lowest settings I get 35-45 fps. On Ultra I get about 9-15.

Nydaweth, turn off your vertical sync (both in game and in video card drivers) that will give you about a 20 fps boost.
