In computing, is called efficiency. Is there for when you need it, but it doesn’t mean is going to be used all the time. Take for example CPU usage. Rarely any games use 100% cpu, but upgrading to a CPU with faster cores yields better performance. Because framerate is not always dependent on CPU/GPU usage, but how fast the clocks are.
That’s why a 3060 now, performs better than a 1080Ti, even though they have the same amount of cores.
what rez are you playing at? 1080, 1440 or 4K?
This is my benchmark in the menus. All low settings, unlimited framerate @1440P using Gsync
1080p, I thought could be cpu bottleneck, but I monitor all the cores and none ever reach 100% or even close.
Could be an Nvidia setting though. I disabled the Power efficiency on mine and lock the core clock to the maximum “boost” value and that gives me somewhat a more stable FPS, still dips, but not as bad as going from 150 to 40
Now set in on the lowest setting and watch how ingame (not menu) you’ll get bad gpu usage.
Everything is set on max performance on mine, I want my shit to catch on fire.
Never happened before, but I’ll try
On the CPU side, my old 3770K never went above 60% usage.
When I upgraded to the 10700K usage is between 20-30%, but I got like a 30 FPS+ boost in performance compared to the old mobo+cpu+ram
I just upgraded my system as well and overclock cpu to 5.0ghz other games 20% gain, but this one, its a joke.
It’s called gaymers pride month ✊
did it, still get between 80-100% GPU usage
or just let console players adjust graphics settings so they actually have playable FPS instead of punishing PC players with mid-tier GPUs and making the game unplayable on all platforms
Wow, can you be that stupid? How about the setting that lets you see the furthest to dumb it down for you… stupid fuck.
Ok, take a screen shot of the “far” setting. The scale goes from low to high, epic, and cinematic…hmmmm yea no “far” setting.
Dumb it down? Bitch please…the only dumb one here is you.
no mang…no.
There’s only one area, in one map, where the foliage does not draw fast (it still draws a few seconds later)… but these dumbasses refuse to believe it, even after video proof. There’s no point in trying to convince them.
I’ll take care of it tomorrow
i did a bunch of tests it goes from 190 down to 80’s… it just depends. the plasma caster really lowers the dps at the lowest of 65 fps. With FXAA its slightlighly lower. I can only imagine what ps4 players are going through… there getting kicked cause the optimization is ass. I cant believe the layout of the map is so polygonally fucked.
I had a lot of ups and downs with my older CPU. Once I upgraded to an 8 core-16 thread, the ups and downs are mostly gone, though I still play on medium settings @1440P. On Epic settings I get about 50 fps min 85 fps max. Visual impact IMO isn’t that much so I settled for all med settings and call it a day. I never get under 60 with med settings and I’m happy with that, at least
Btw what’s that “all core” line that you’re using for better performance?
I reinstalled the game some time ago.
I dunno exactly how the game works cpu wise. I just know, by experience, that more cores will give you better performance, even if the cpu usage is not 100% with your current CPU
Example, my old 3770K (4 core-8 thread) was never at 100% during gameplay. It was normally around 60% usage. When I upgraded to the 10700K (8 cores - 16 thread) cpu usage is now 20-30%, but I got about 30+ fps boost.
For comparison, this was my old setup
i7 3770K O.C. 4.5 GHz
16 GB DDR3 @ 2400 MHz
GTX 1070 Ti
My new setup
i7 10700KF O.C. 5.00 GHz
16 GB DDR4 @ 3200 MHz
GTX 1070 Ti
So, even if your CPU is not being maxed out, you will benefit from having more cores and higher clocks
Also, I use the -useallavailablecores flag on the game arguments when launching it
It also explains why Roargathor, with a 1070, had better framerates than I did. He had a better CPU than my older one.
