Resident Evil 2 Performance thread

[shankly1985]

Once again AMD partners to release another PC optimise masterpiece. I put so far 10 hours in on max settings 1440p and its been amazing experience with my VEGA 64.

Digital Foundry great video, RX 580 vs 1060

Rapid packed Math, Shader, Intrinsics and FP16 all used.

Demo - Directx 12

Demo - Directx 11

Tin Foil Hat, they seems to be very little benchmark videos out there! I can not find a single VEGA 64 vs GTX 1080 LOL
Will post more video has they become available

 

[D.P.]

Rapid packed maths is double rate FP16 support

I thought the same, but AMD list all 3 at 37 seconds? So I have no idea

Subbed.

I have mine capped to 57fps and apart from a few scenes it stays there solid. Very nice port if you ask me, thus far anyway. Close to finishing first playthrough with Leon

 

[Chrisc]

Nice performance from the 64 there.

 

[Davanius]

Only 1770 Mhz on that 2070?

My card settles at 1950 without further overclocking. I wonder what card it was.

Runs terrific on my main PC with Vega 64. I was surprised how well it ran on a couple of secondary PCs I have. A media PC downstairs with Fury Nano/4790K, runs great at 1440p and 130% image scaling for a 60hz 4K TV. Excellent optimisation on this game.

Yer, rubbish clocks on both the 2070 and 2080. Not sure what the guy is doing but easily 100Mhz more on both those without breaking a sweat or overclcking

 

[FlyingScotsman]

Was thinking the same, cut scenes take a right hit though

Pffffft you'd have them to 3000Mhz easy m8

True, but vega64 isn't breaking any sweat either at 1500mhz(ish) and only 945mhz on the HBM can easily OC to 1650/1050 with very little effort. Put my Vega64 at 1750/1180 and it would smash those Vega64 numbers

Are those stock clocks for the Nvidia cards?

The 2070 is most likely a stock chip but the 2080 is well over stock at 1935 boost. Vega was also running in the 1400's at some points so definitely a reference model i would say. 1620mhz is the gauranteed boost clock on a stock 2070 chip. The 2080 stock chip gaurantee's 1710mhz.

I can't wait to see the VII numbers, hope they're gonna be good! Just a shame we're only getting 60 CU's with it

Be *very* interesting to see your golden chip against it too, see what effect the extra bandwidth has...

That video is from the demo, so maybe the Nvidia driver wasn't used yet? Am surprised just how little benchmark videos they is out right now. Maybe they all just enjoying playing the game at the moment lol

Here is the 2060 running at 1900mhz from the demo again though.

EDIT
That video in OP was running DX12, DirectX 12 in this title is quite bad compared to DX11 so this might explain why its not running at expected speeds.

Something else I have noticed. The frame times on Nvidia for this title are so much better than any other game I seen to date. Its like AMDs a smooth line. Once again showcasing just how well this is optimised for the PC.

Perfect example
This is how I see all Nvidia frame times on games lately, compared to AMD is a smooth line.

Lets keep Anthem talk out of this thread, this is just an example.

Well, in theory you can have FP16 support in registers but without double rate FP16. Pascal has this, but it wont add much performance.

I don;t think AMd has a GPU with 16bit support without rapid packed math.

Am really not sure. It would be nice if we got a dev talk or something explaining what they did with GPUOpen.

On my Titan Xp overclocked maxed at 4k more often than not I was above 60fps with the occasional dips. Since I've downgraded to a 1080 at 4k with a mixture of max/high and one setting on medium ( away from my pc and can't remember what setting) I get at times above 60fps but the majority is high 40s/mid 50s which for me is perfectly fine. This 1080 is still a little champ!

Amd's latest driver does have updates for this demo so I'm glad to see them on the ball. This could change for Nvidia once the drivers and the game releases.

Took a while for the Vega cards to get up to performance? I'm sure at one point a Vega 56 wasn't as good as a GTX1070 and now that card would smash it, same for 64 vs 1080, it's more like 64 on par with a 1080Ti now.
