1. RAM - 16.0 GB Dual-Channel DDR3.
2. Motherboard - MSI Z77A-G43 (MS-7758).
3. Processor - Intel Core i5 2500K @ 3.30GHz.
4. Graphics - GeForce GTX 580.
5. Operating system - Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit

okay so can any one tell which are the best settings ?


Direct3D11, i also could have openGL but i dont know which to choose
V-sync
Aspect ratio - 1366x768 ( the size of my monitor )
4x native 2560x2112
Anti-aliasing - 8 samples ( I don't know much about it so I went with 8) Anisotropic filtering - 16x
Scaled EFB copy

That's pretty much as high as you can go.

3x IR + 4x SSAA may be alittle too high for Nvidia GTX 580 , I'm not so sure
But i'm sure 4X IR + 8X SSAA is not possible

He's using MSAA. It should be able to handle 3x IR + 4xSSAA like a champ. It will probably struggle with 4x IR + 8xMSAA in some games. I would consider lowering that to either 4x IR + 4x MSAA or 3x IR + 8x MSAA.

@OP: You could overclock your CPU to 4.4GHz. So you're able to play the demanding games with LLE (SMG1+2) just fine. Just a little hint Wink

Alright thanks for the tips but i've put all of them to the top and i still get around 100% speed on skyward sword.

Also i dont think i can overclock atm, my whole rig runs a little hot so i'm getting extra fans to ventilate the heat.

Also enable efb copies to ram and "enable cache".
Its needed for a lot of games to work properly.
I dont know about zelda but for some games you will need to ease up on AA even on 580
