How will current gen games run on a Intel HD Graphics 3000

Of the Laptop? Lenovo G580, it's an I3 and has 6 gigs of RAM
 
The thing with Nvidia's top shelf cards is, they're generally the fastest cards on the market, but they charge an insane premium for it, out of whack with their real performance. You only get those cards to brag; certainly not with a view to longevity.

So if you've got a view to maximising your long term gaming ability, it would simply be wiser to scale down to the notch below. But, it's your money and I wouldn't turn down a 780ti.
Same as with Nvidia's Titan, great piece of technology, but the hype sorta died down now
 
So im running CPU graphics and its pretty kuk, I can play BO1 with 800*600 with lowest graphics @30FPS but its just not worth it.
 
Well If my GTX 460 got me this far (it can still play latest games on high) imagine how long a GTX780Ti will last.

Now it sounds like you're looking for justification as you've already made up your mind.

I'm sorry, but you won't find that here.

The 290X is the better buy.
 
Just buy a 4k card now and a 4k card in 4 years time. You will save money and get better performance in 8 years time...

I hate it when a thread becomes "Oh that item you want sucks how about we debate for 2 pages which I think is better but I know you dont like that product but ill try convince you any way."

People must stick to the topic!
 
I am sorry but I am with chevron with this, we have given you many option's but you just shoot them down one by one. We want to help you but you got the 780ti stuck in your head. I mean like I said u can get a 680 for 4K secondhand its a wonderful card if you don't want R290x and after a few years just resell the 680 and get a 780 secondhand.

It's not the 780ti that baffles me, it's the logic of getting an 11k card with a view to it lasting 5+ years. It's like buying a Mazerati so that you can still drive to pick n pay when you're 80.
 
This thread makes no sense, seems like the OP just wants us to tell him that getting the titan is the best decision ever, even though he can't afford it. It's obviously not the best decision, stop being a fanboy and just get the best performing card for the price, problem solved.
