Star Wars Battlefront 2 Benchmarks

LtMatt · 14 Nov 2017 at 19:38

Game launches in a few days time, seems well optimised from my experience playing a bit of the single player via Origin early access.

My Vega64 will enjoy this at 4K but only when the game is on a 75% off sale, I've watched some of the campaign and it's mediocre at best, It's just more multiplayer crap with loot boxes with single player as usual lately it seems tacked on the side.

Looking forward to this.

What's everyone mean about pay to win?.. Lots of people moaning

The picture is different according to these 3 sites: where NVIDIA GPUs are slightly ahead.

I thought it was only the multi-player part of the game available through Origin early access. Could you potentially go through the whole campaign then? Is it the usual 10 hours of play permitted?

Think only first three missions was available to you.

Those benchmarks remind me how sad I am that AMD (ATi) can no longer keep up with Nvidia

Eh? Seems pretty good to me! They're not aiming for the Ti though, even the AMD slides before launch showed that (although I'm sure they'd have liked to!)

Do we need to unlock the benchmark tool?

Was about to type something very similar.

I edited it to put 'slides' in lol

I think I'd personally be very happy to run a Vega64 with a nice 3440 Ultrawide

Vega 64 = £499.

1080 Ti = £679

Vega64 only being 8FPS away from a card that costs nearly £200 more is pretty damn good IMO.

Been proper happy with mine.

I tnink Vega may live or die on the pricing on the AiB boards. If they can keep them somewhat reasonable then I can see it being a good seller for AMD in the medium-term

Yup, needs an AiO on there at the very least imo to make it shine.

TonyTurbo78 · 14 Nov 2017 at 23:13

For sure, really closes in on the 1080ti, pulls clear of the 1080 when you put it in a loop or get an AIO. Pushing upwards of 1750mhz and 1100mhz on HBM, this thing makes mincemeat out of games at 1440p.

Was the same nonsense not being said about Forza? Then drivers happened.

Doesn't change the fact AMD can't keep up with Nvidia's top card (at the minute). Maybe they weren't trying to, maybe they were, but they're not.

Now the Vega 64 may be better value for money than the 1080Ti, but sometimes people want the best performance, not the best bang for buck.

I'm very tempted to get a 8700K because I want the performance. I'm sure the Ryzen 5 1600 is better value for money and that's great but I believe the 8700K has the edge in performance. I don't think anyone that's interested in bang-for-buck would get the 8700K over the 1600 as it's about twice the price but probably not twice the performance.

If I was buying a mid-range GPU I would probably go bang-for-buck and be looking at a RX 580. But if I'm looking at the top end then I'm probably looking for performance and currently the 1080Ti is winning. If you're looking for bang-for-buck I believe the RX 580 is better performance/£ than Vega, if you're looking for performance the 1080Ti is better than Vega.
If you confine the parameters of a search to be Vega sort of price range, Vega sort of performance and a name that rhymes with "Ray-ga", then yeah, Vega is the best.

I only see one green card beating two reds? Looks good to me. It isn’t as if the red cards are 20 odd fps behind the green one.

Even 8fps ahead isn’t something to boast about. Nor is it running away with the competition. 8 fps I mean really. Riveting.
