To say the beta grabbed my attention is a massive understatement. I went from not knowing the D4 release date or about closed beta happening at all until I saw a YouTube video about it that weekend. I ended up watching hours of gameplay then playing a ton open beta weekend and now I’m pretty much obsessed and following every bit of news.
I bought a used GTX 1070 8GB replacing my GTX 960 2GB on my old PC to get ready. I think a pretty solid deal for $105 and should run it SO much smoother and prettier.
I found a benchmark video of a 1070 8GB with a i5-2500k OC’d to 4.4ghz, just like mine (told you it was old
) with a HDD no less and 32GB DDR3 getting a pretty consistent 60fps @ 1080p using the high res textures and everything else the card supports maxed. It seemed like a no-brainer upgrade since I have no plans of building a new machine and a more modern card would be even more bottlenecked.
I just want to play Diablo 4 pretty and smooth @ 1080p mannnnmm

I really like some of the changes they have made from beta feedback.
Definitely looking forward to the livestream on the 20th too
