Hello guys, I went for a 980Ti instead of a pair of 970. But I just wanted to ask if it's normal that a reference 980 Ti (Inno3D) can't even max out MSAA in GTA V at 1080p? It gives me 30-60 FPS and sometimes causes my game to crash. I've seen some people on YT benchmark a 980 Ti at maximum settings and sometimes even 4k and get better FPS than mine

PC Specs:
I7 4790K stock clock
8gb ram
980ti reference inno3d

MSAA absolutely KILLS performance in GTA V, it's best to stick with FXAA.

I can't imagine anyone playing @ 4K uses MSAA either, unless they are running multiple cards.. and even then!

Yes, MSAA is not optimized well with the game at all.

Don't use MSAA. Reviewers don't even use it.
