0 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 590
For 1080p Full HD, we were able to play Valorant at 87 fps to 87 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 87 fps. For 1440p Quad HD, we were able to play Valorant at 71 fps to 71 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 71 fps.
For 2160p 4K, we were able to play Valorant at 62 fps to 62 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 62 fps.
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770
The GTX 780 might be the high-end flagship of the latest Kepler set of graphics cards, but their prices keep them out of the reach of most mid-range PC gamers. On the other hand, the GTX 770 is closer to being reasonably affordable at a price tag of $ 399. NVIDIA ’s xx70 cards have always been defined by mid-range prices with performance that knocks on the door of high-end graphics cards – especially when overclocked. After taking the time to fully test the Kepler graphics card inside the GTX 770, we can say without a doubt that it continues the trend.
Compared to its AMD 's closest rival, R9 280X, the GTX 770 was -8 % slower. For 1080p Full HD, we were able to play Valorant at 82 fps to 82 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 82 fps.
For 1440p Quad HD, we were able to play Valorant at 67 fps to 67 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 67 fps.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 590 / i7-2600K
For the most part, the GTX 590 is still capable of playing modern games, but you would have to reduce settings to sustain those higher framerates. If keeping graphics quality settings closer to ultra or high is important, there are a few options for upgrades. It is worth noting that the GTX 590 is a very power hungry card and requires a decent power supply unit. With current 1536 MB RAM, the GTX 590 can have serious memory-related bottlenecks in more modern games. It is important to know that GTX 590 's max load temperature is very high and might require custom cooling solutions. This combination between GTX 590 and Intel Core i7-2600K @ 3.40GHz has less than 8% bottleneck in many games and is perfect match to avoid FPS loss. Deciding whether to invest so much money in a high-end GPU like GTX 590 requires careful thought. This combination between GTX 590 and Intel Core i7-2600K @ 3.40GHz is a perfect match to avoid FPS loss. View Current Price List
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770 / i7-3770K
It is worth noting that the GTX 770 is a very power hungry card and requires a decent power supply unit.
