Watch Dogs Benchmarks

[gazrawly]

how will my xfire 270x 4gb cards do on this @ 1080p? cant decide to go for ps4 or pc version !!

You just know the money will be well spent on the PS4 as everything will be optimised to run properly as oppose to the ***** that get's ported to PC users as left overs

I'm confused by this post bud, AMD are putting up a good show against the higher priced Nvidia cards?

290X trading blows with 780 Ti and Titan..

Yes exactly, but in the other watchdogs thread matt is still banging on about gameworks gimping performance for AMD, when it clearly isnt the case

I wonder what difference the new 14.6 beta drivers make to AMD cards -


Watch Dogs performance improvements
AMD Radeon R9 290X - 1920x1080 4x MSAA – improves up to 25%
AMD Radeon R9290X - 2560x1600 4x MSAA – improves up to 28%
AMD Radeon R9290X CrossFire configuration (3840x2160 Ultra settings, MSAA = 4X) - 92% scaling

Has the release day patch made any difference to frame rate stability? I am guessing all the reviews / benchmarks were done before this patch was released.

I am using a 3770K @ 4.3, 7990 @ stock, constantly having very low GPU usage <60% and FPS <50.

Could anyone help?
I have just used the AMD driver unstall tool to clean it and reinstall 14.6 driver, however it makes no difference...

Was looking at buying this, but, seeing the benchmarks i am just not sure my ole 5770 will even run it on the lowest settings HAHA

Surprisingly I'm getting good utilisation of all 3 gpus (90%+) and the game seems to utilise 6-8 threads. No stutter or fps dips on ultra (AA turned down). Things will improve with patches/driver updates.

Is that 95%/97%/95% GPU usages? If so, Kudos on the scaling for a new game.

I`m getting sick of SLI stutter on some games, I`ve pulled one card out for now!

Aye, [email protected]

Was only quick run after finally getting it to work,

all mid/high 90's

Very surprised if I'm honest.

OMG is that seriously the in game graphic? I recalled the previews year back look FAR better. This screenshot look as if it was screenshot of Half-life 2 or something...

Seriously, how does graphic like these stress graphic cards SO much!?

Same, SLI is reading average of about 90% usage on both GPU's. Getting the odd dips though here and there but nothing serious.


For a brand new release, the game runs surprisingly smooth and glitch free.

It's resized, but agree that screenie doesn't look good.

Have a look at Rossi's screenies much better

4GB is not enough for gamers.

To the lads running this on high-end rigs. Is this accurate?

That is a pretty damning comparison. Someone turned on all the lights and turned off all the volumetrics.
