    Looks better on console ?

    alright , im a bit disappointed

    my little cousin got this game for his ps4 on launch and i was looking at it thinking "ow sweet my pc version that came with my gtx 980 will completely crush the ps4 one in every way''

    because fc3 was such a good game that made a real impression i even upgraded my rig beyond recommended specs

    new 120 gig ssd samsung evo with fresh win 7 install
    new ram 12 gig g.skill ripjaws
    new gpu geforce gtx 980

    cpu intel xeon has 6 cores , 12mb cache and oc to 3.2 ghz

    but what do i get = bad flashbacks to battlefield 4

    - a lot of stutter
    - no or very dull/grey colors
    - glitches
    - pop-up trees and objects
    - errors in the shadows
    - landscape at far distance looks plain ugly

    far cry 3 gave me 1 ''omg look at the scenery'' moment after the other and after i installed it i had ZERO problems playing so yesterday i checked my cousins game on console again and i was actually jealous

    Well I have 2- 980 gtx's and while I can't run it sli yet{because of a driver or game issue} it looks as good if not better than FC3. While I can't say why your having these issues, make sure nothing else is running in the background, and that you have nvidias latest driver, besides the one that came with your card. Should be 344.75. I'm running in ultra and it's really nice looking and smooth. I hope you can figure out what it is. It should run fine on your specs. Good luck, you can see my specs in my sig, were pretty close in that regard.
