I am looking for some older versions of the popular Football manager (Soccer Manager in the US?) franchise, especially Football Manager 2010, or possibly earlier but I can't find this game anywhere. I've tried Gog, Steam, the official website of the producer, but no luck. There are possibly ways to buy this game on Amazon or ebay, but I want the game to be digital so that I can play it today.

Any of you have any suggestions how/where I can find these games?

@Coseniath: thanks for that :) You've now soothed my mind further. I agree; I prefer to MAX OUT the other graphic/display options before settling on a AA-option that looks ad performes great. Thank you :)

@Coseniath: Wow, yeah, that's true. But is FXAA really maxed out?

When I woke p today, I booted up my PC and Maxed every setting except Anti-Aliasing. The AA I set to FXAA, which is "far" from Maxed out.
I got an average score of 98,6 FPS, and most of the time the FPS remained in three digits (1xx). This pleased me because I finally got the same'ish score as the guy on the video. On another level I felt a bit disappointed. Granted, as stated above; I am content with a steady 30-40 FPS, and I am Happy wit 60 Fps.

I will continue to test out my GTX 980 Ti. Thank you to all for your useful contributions :)

@KBFloYd: My friend, you speak the truth. I do believe that this guy does, in fact, use FXAA for these tests.
You have soothed me for the moment, and I will try another benchmark tomorrow.

Do take notice;

I am content with 30 Fps. I am happy with 60 Fps. I don't think I'd noticed a higher fps, but it is nice to know it (GTX 980 Ti) is capabel ;)
Thank you for your input. I will return when I have done another benchmark.

@KBFloYd: Hi, KBFloyd.

After unchecking and altering to your settings, my "score" became 68,1 FPS. So, a FPS-boost of about 20 Fps. I am happy with both; I can play this game at an AVG. of around 40 FPS, and I can also enjoy your score of 68.1, BUT I feel I should get the same results as -this- guy, in this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lvJN3Pgu7ko) .
I mean our CPU is more than capable of dealing with this game (?), and our GPU is the same, more or less, but not 50 Fps-less...
I was hoping I would be able to run MOST OF TODAYS games at 60 FPS at an AVG on MAX/ULTRA/HIGHEST settings. Like in the video.
Thank you for your help, but what is the major difference between OUR rig and the rig for the guy IN THE VIDEO?

@FelipeInside: Hey, Felipe.

I'm using the on-board Steam FPS-counter. I can try using the GeForce Experience-counter to see if there are any anamolies.

EDIT; The game comes with it's own Benchmark-mode which gives me/ my rig an average FPS of 47.72.
EDIT2; Using the GeForce Experience ShadowPlay FPS-Counter it yielded the same results as the Steam counter.

@saintsatan: Terribly sorry. I am running the game at 1080p with everything on Ultra (have V-sync turned off). I don't even have the option for higher resolutions. Maybe I'll try to switch the DirectX 12 off.

@hillelslovak: I understand -- I've read about Xcom 2 not being optimized and giving people with decent rigs a true FPS-prolem, but if you have a look at the video in the above-post, you'll notice that this guy gets fps "in the triple digit" -department, something I with my rig am faaar from reaching. I don't understand ... could it be a faulty card?

Hey guys, hope you have a good easter celebration.

I recently "became" a PC-gamer. I was a PC-gamer back in 2000, but couldn't keep up with the technology when I entered University. I bought a fairly robust computer in pieces which I put togheter and fired up.
This is what I purchased (that matters to the subject at hand);
-CPU; Intel i7-6700K 4.0 Ghz
-GPU; Gainward GeForce GTX 980 Ti 6Gb Phoenix
-Memory; 4Gb x 4 2240 Mhz DDR4

Now; since I've been away from the PC-scene, I did a bit of research to come up with this "package". Some of my friends told me that the 980 Ti "is a beast" and that I would be able to max out EVERYTHING with one of those aboard. I considered the Titan X for awhile, but my friends told me about the difference in price vs. difference in performance-ratio, which made me "Settle" for the 980 Ti. A good decision, my friends said.

I've only tested a couple of games with my "new" rig, these being rise of The Tomb Raider, and XCom2. Both of these games I play on Ultra/Custom. The frame-rate I get on TR is disappointingly low; about a average of 40fps... :/
The same goes for Xcom 2, which isn't a very demanding game.. During gameplay (XCOM2, during missions), I get a steady 50'ish, but it can plummet to 30 even during cutscenes!

I have the latest drivers and use XpertTool to check up on my GPU, but... I don't know, according to this ;

https://youtu.be/lvJN3Pgu7ko?t=3m53s

My frame-rate should be WAAAAY higher...
Have I missed something? have I chosen poorly? Can any of you offer some advice?

Thank you :)
