***THE BF4 BENCHMARKS THREAD***

I did a major gaming session with it yesterday.
Stuck to 32-42 player servers to avoid the server crashing and rubber-banding only to find that client side crashes were more frequent.
64 player servers are CPU IPC limited, if I go onto an empty server, I get a near 200fps locked frame-rate so, am considering upping my settings a little on supersampling.
It is the first game to exploit my rig so I am not keen upgrading to 290x when the three 7970s are delivering my target frame-rates in a cool, calm fashion. With Mantle also going to provide a bump, I sense un-finished business with these cards and it would be a shame to dump them at this point.
Settings are FOV120, Ultra except for Mesh (High) and AA off.
PS. Yes, the cut-scenes are choppy, how some of this stuff evaded QA testing is beyond my comprehension.

You can use radeonpro to enable some gpu monitoring in Battlefield 4. You need to create a BF4 profile in BF4 and then tick to enable the OSD.
An excellent start to life with BF4...
My mouse doesn't work while running around on foot, it moves up and down to fixed positions, won't move side to side. Brilliant.
Mouse does work as normal in a vehicle, just not on foot. I'd rather uninstall the game then buy a new mouse if its a hardware issue.
Cm Storm Sentinel advance (5700dpi, sensitivity in game to 20%) and windows 8.1 using 331.65.
Worth noting it worked perfectly in the beta.
Edit: Seems to be directly related to windows 8.1, was on 8.0 for the beta. Brilliant.

never saw where it went to 26fps lol, 32 man server plays very well sometimes it feels a little laggy, But the graphics are just gorgeous
what i don't want to see when Mantel comes out is a drop in performance on DX to make Mantel look better.
Very happy with how it plays so far.

Zero chance of that happening. Mantle will not affect Nvidia cards or Directx11 performance in any way.
Nope, same either way, on or off, movement on vertical axis only and thats fixed positions, completely unplayable.
I don't know which **** at DICE or Microsoft is behind this, but bravo son.

I have a SteelSeries Sensai, which doesn't work properly with W8.1
can't use the extra buttons or anything. Works ok as a basic mouse though.
Linus Tech Tips has released an early Battlefield 4 benchmark video. More videos to come in the future, including Ram, CPU, GTX 780ti and R9 290 benchmarks.

Some early results I have dug out from the thread.

Yep
Everything besides being on foot works perfectly.
Cheers flopper, been looking at that post, tried the fix for compatibility mode etc... still the same.
Also tried having mousemovementrecorder running, still the same thing.
I don't even understand how this is a ******* issue, surely and I mean SURELY someone at DICE must have picked up the final copy of this game and gone "****, hang on a min guys, my mouse doesn't work with the latest windows OS"
They did this with BF3 too, release a so called 'beta' that does nothing to benefit the final outcome of the game acting only as a publicity stunt. Absolutely fed up of lazy **** developers pushing out public betas with a price tag on it with the "we'll deal with it later" attitude.
Two latest games I've played....Batman AO & BF4, guess what, they're both broken. Its just lazy.

You can't even assign reload gun to the delete key without using a third party settings editor. So id say your chances of getting your mouse working with the game are slim to none.
Bin it is, I'd rather have 24GB free space on my SSD.

Is it still the case that Windows 8 is better than Windows 7 for performance in BF4? Thinking of picking it up this week.
