This game is pretty and has an in-game benchmark Why not have a benchmark thread for it then I thought, so here we are. No bickering please and keep it on topic.

Setting to be maxed with ultra set as per the images and add the high res DLC by following this guide.

'steam://install/311670
Paste that in your browser. Install will fail.
Right click the game, go to properties, and DLC tab. It'll be there, check it and let it download.'





And here is the bench video from that run with the settings to be used.

Might want to clarify whether the 9Gb high res add on is used???

Sure thing and leave it with me and I will investigate. probably better having it on?

Added the HD pack now and thanks to Stooeh for the info on how to install it

So that's using 5GB V-ram at 1440p with the Ultra textures? That about right?

damn! These better be some good textures

What happens to those with only 4GB and running the Ultra textures download?

Will it just struggle along?

I don't play with any motion blur on though and have AO set to ultra. Max vram used has been 4080mb.

For those that have SLI, run nvinspector and add the F.E.A.R 3 profile to the sli bits and add the game.exe to the profile to get SLI running.

Also, I installed the HD pack and it didn't appear to add anything to performance hits or VRAM usage.

At 1080p no, at 1440p probably.

Ohhh and just to add, I ran it at 200% (which is 5K?) and that used 5.7GB of VRAM. I wouldn't be surprised if there is some caching going on (as seen by Rankftw's results).

Made a video showing vram use at 1440p on a 980, all settings Ultra and motion blur off. I use GSYNC so the changing fps doesn't bother me. Did a couple of runs and they were both within 1 fps of each other.

Great info bud. Look forward to playing this later

So does the extra texture resolution really stand out in comparison to the original?

295x2 ok for the ultra textures at 4k seeing as they seem to work on everything so far.

I don't think so. Don't get me wrong, the game looks fantastic but with the textures, it doesn't add much IMO.

Be aware they if you selected Ultra before installing the Ultra textures then your game is more than likely still showing the 'high' textures.

I think you have to install textures, reload the game and cycle through them again.

Will do plenty of benchmarks on Thursday(Waiting for MSI 970). Can do 1080p/1440p with AMD 7970Ghz Vapor-X, GTX Titan and MSI 970 when it arrives.

can someone do 4k please?

I want to see 4k attempted ultra with a 3gb 4gb and 6gb card.
