yea sandy bridge is unbelievable.
here's my still kickin i7 920 nehalem:
like hondaracer, my 970 is still able to play BFV at high around 55fps. thinking about upgrading to a 1070ti even though it will probably bottleneck my cpu but it should get me to ultra at 60fps+ at 1920x1200.
until dell makes a 27" oled/micro-led 4k 144hz+ monitor I'll stick with this ancient system as it does well enough at 1200p.
