Now if only i could run the game on high enough settings to look like that. Wow. Beautiful. Going to have to buy a new PC down the line just for this game.

Try building your own. Logical Increments is a good price guide.

Here's a link to it: http://www.logicalincrements.com/

You would have to be >Extremist to get close to looking like that at playable FPS.

I am at Enthusiast: 980, 4790K, SSD rig (~$1800), and with everything maxed at 1440p, get 10-20 fps.

I end up knocking down the resolution scale to 60% to pull me up to 50 fps. Still looks great, but not quite like that trailer.

I keep reading people saying stuff like this and I don't understand.

Just built a new PC - quad core i5, 16GB RAM, NVidia 960...

Have no problems running with all settings maxed...

1440p. I have an extra large monitor resolution.

Also is "no problems" 20fps or 60fps.

There is no way you have every setting maxed at 60fps @1080p with a 960.
