YouTube’s ‘Thirty IR’ has been testing a number of PC titles in 8K resolution these past few months, and released some videos showcasing Crysis 3, The Witcher 3, Project CARS, Battlefield 1 and For Honor running in such a ridiculously high resolution.
Thirty IR used four NVIDIA Titan XP graphics cards in order to run the aforementioned games with more than 60fps on their highest settings.
From these titles, only Crysis 3 and Battlefield 1 dropped below 60fps. In fact, Crysis 3 struggled the most and was around 50fps. On the other hand, The Witcher 3, For Honor and Project CARS were running with more than 60fps at all times.
The end result is awesome and gives us a glimpse at the future. Naturally, don’t expect a single GPU to pull anything like that in the near future. So, if you want to experience your games at such high resolutions, you’ll simply have to rely on SLI/Crossfire setups.
Still, these are some truly great videos, so be sure to watch them!

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.
