[QUOTE="Colywobbles, post: 278055, member: 7470"] Ok so after the news of WMS tables being released I dusted off my VPin setup and installed the beta for the Williams tables. 3hrs later and after cleaning up the damp patch in my under crackers I decided my table justifies an upgrade for this thing of beauty Zen have created. However just to make sure I thought I’d best set it up the living room PC which is 4K to make sure my now dated GTX970 could handle it. 4 damp patches later after trying each of the beta tables it looks like I’m going to have to sell a kidney! They say pictures don’t lie but TBH regardless of the ones posted below in this case they actually do as jaggies on the ramp wires, flippers and lots of plastics can easily be seen while playing the game in 1080 but not at all on in 4K Apart from jaggies everything can be read easily and clearly on the 4K screen but not so much on the 1080 and the pics do show this quite well if you check out the text on the dudes cap, the credits near the flippers and even right down to the barcode under the left slingshot. You may think this is not such a big deal but believe me it’s the difference between Chalk & Cheese when playing and makes the table absolutely pop with realism. Simply put WOW! So is it a no brainier? Well sort of. The con is the fact my GTX970 is struggling it’s arse off to keep up and definitely showing low frame rate with stuttering to boot so my next step is to try my VR gaming rigs GTX1080 non Ti and a mates gonna give his 1070 a whirl too and I’ll get back with results. My feelings at the moment “dam this is gonna be expensive but just has to be done. Big Thanks to all the guys at Zen my faith in virtual pinball has been restored especially after the Arcooda fiasco I went through. 1080 everything on inc 16x MSA [url]https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/Bhpk-Cmx0Vk7-4ITjH3wT3WeC6VES2N41nczv9VRGycsyHMHzJvhVTzxac9wVspdGhFQ4lU5yhf3QOI2hjir6uyiYxd1k9HzKk6THWk1RwayxTfjZRg3NKtKyKia4otRZNKAQV4XWw=w2400[/url] 4K everything on inc 8x MSA [url]https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/n1iRjoePA6whzMXtucffdlsPD7xSChnw73H-mioQW-h4zoyJFHYAhN_vltcMjN-xswZHpe4rcoc59Zh4p3DuKOOQ1VwQSd8q3Xw5xGA0P_kuX1J_miEjKWDcQVG_7lA6QRuSR__P=w2400[/url] [/QUOTE]
