Call of Duty: Black Ops 7
Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 was launched in November of 2025, based on a revamped IW Engine. Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 supports detailed environments, volumetric lighting, detailed character and weapon models, dense shaders, screen space reflections, and dynamic lighting. Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 heavily features Upscaling technologies like AMD FSR 4 and FidelityFX CAS and NVIDIA DLSS. The game also features Ray Tracing and AMD Ray Regeneration. There is a built-in benchmark in a multiplayer map, and we will be using that for our testing.
Performance in Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is very high, and we are able to easily run 1080p native resolution with the “Extreme” quality settings enabled, which are the game’s highest settings. The PNY GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB OC provides 129FPS average at native resolution, and 139FPS with DLSS Upscaling. This is, however, slower than the Radeon RX 9060 XT 8GB by 19%. Still, at over 100FPS performance is very smooth. Overclocking the PNY GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB OC provides a 5% uplift to performance. We did try running Ray Tracing, but the performance drop was too much to actually enjoy.

Join Discussion →That is a powerhouse of a 1080p gamer. Very nice... I'd call it budget it it's still almost as much as a modern console... oof.
I admit I jumped on the 8GB hate bandwagon of late, but very happy to see how well this card performs at 1080p.
I remember doing some tests with my 4090 a couple of years ago at 1080p with settings maxed to just see what FPS my rigs were capable of, but I was also shocked by how nice modern games can look at 1080p w/ current textures, RT, etc., so a value-priced card like this providing the same visuals is a great deal. I even noticed how the Amazon price dropped to $349 for now.
i think a lot of folks are doing a 180 now that more RAM requires a credit check and reverse mortgage
Maybe Ram Doubler will make a comeback.
Paying $350 for 8GB in 2026. That's a hard no from me dawg. It'll probably be consider a hot deal in a few months. The dark times have returned.
Linux and indie gaming is on the rise, I kid you not. Younger gamers with little cheddar grow weary of corpo greed. But not just the cash strapped either. My son has a 5800X3D, 32GB 3600, 7800XT. You know what he and his friends are playing? Vintage Story. It will run on a decade old potato. Tarkov is the only game they play that is hard to run. Also indie. Almost everything they play is indie.
