bf3 mp actual framerates thread

[~>Dg<~]

well as a lot of people want new cards or are looking at what settings to use and so on i thought why not just do a thread with only actual fps in bf3 mp

no bs just min , avg , max fps with your exact settings and graphics card.

maybe if enough results in we could do a chart or something which would make easy refference.

we will use fraps and do 60 sec benchmark runs (free fraps here http://www.fraps.com/download.php ) please use metro map for this bench run outside only !

so basically

cpu and speed = amd 955 @ 3.7


card = ati 6950@6970
res = 1920x1080
advanced settings

graphics quality = custom
texture quality = high
shadow quality = medium
effects quality = high
mesh quality = high
terrain quality = high
terrain decoration = high
antiliasing deferred = 2xmsaa
antiliasing post = off
motion blur = off
anisotropic filter = x16
ambient occlusion = off

frame rates

min = 40
max = 85
avg = 55

done on everything on max

graphics quality = custom
texture quality = ultra
shadow quality = ultra
effects quality = ultra
mesh quality = ultra
terrain quality = ultra
terrain decoration = ultra
antiliasing deferred = 4xmsaa
antiliasing post = high
motion blur = on
anisotropic filter = x16
ambient occlusion = ssaa

min = 31
max = 65
avg = 43


just trying without msaa

graphics quality = custom
texture quality = high
shadow quality = high
effects quality = high
mesh quality = high
terrain quality = high
terrain decoration = high
antiliasing deferred = off
antiliasing post = off
motion blur = off
anisotropic filter = x16
ambient occlusion = off

min =46
max= 100
avg= 68.8



graphics quality = custom
texture quality = high
shadow quality = high
effects quality = high
mesh quality = high
terrain quality = high
terrain decoration = high
antiliasing deferred = off
antiliasing post = high
motion blur = on
anisotropic filter = x16
ambient occlusion = ssao

min = 50
max = 76
avg = 61.183


graphics quality = custom
texture quality = high
shadow quality = high
effects quality = high
mesh quality = high
terrain quality = high
terrain decoration = high
antiliasing deferred = x2msaa
antiliasing post = high
motion blur = on
anisotropic filter = x16
ambient occlusion = ssao

min =38
max = 71
avg= 53.050





hopefully this will be very useful and cut a lot of the bs or crappy reviews which can be biased and will show what is really the truth

i will add my results once benched thanks .

please dont cheat and only use as asked for fair comparison cheers

from steam forums (posted it there aswell )

Minamimoto Sho

cpu and speed = Phenom II x4 955 BE @ 3.6 GHz

card = 5770 @ 895 MHz core / 1300 MHz memory
res = 1440x900
high preset

min = 40
max = 70
avg = 50

kmrking

card = GTX460 800mhz
res = 1920x1080
advanced settings

graphics quality = custom
texture quality = high
shadow quality = medium
effects quality = medium
mesh quality = medium
terrain quality = medium
terrain decoration = low
antiliasing deferred = 2xmsaa
antiliasing post = medium
motion blur = off
anisotropic filter = x8
ambient occlusion = off

frame rates

vsynced at 60 very little noticeable drops

done on everything on max

min = 10
max = 60
avg = 25

Interesting stuff, you guys should be including FOV in the posts too!

tbh doesnt seem to alter the fps if at all

msaa is the killer in bf3 upto yet

 

[~>Dg<~]

could anyone who has any of these cards please post there settings and fps please

ati 5850
ati 5870
ati 6850
ati 6870
ati 6990

nvidia

460 gtx
470 gtx
560 gtx
570 gtx
580 gtx

it would be very helpful for all cheers.

thanks

60 sec tests are useless if not done in a controlled environment.

best easiest way of doing it i can think of unless you get a built in demo or benchmark


also you can see peoples settings with similar cards which may help others play the game a bit better or with better settings

to be honest on same map metro outside you wont get much different fps i have tried it thats why i said to use this particular map.

if its a couple of fps out over many results you can gauge roughly still what will be decent and what is not.

im hoping they allow some of the things people have made themselves which lessens the performance hit of say msaa which is the biggest fps killer in bf3.

im not trying them yet though incase it causes a ban

a lot seem to be trying them maybe ea will patch or try something similar themselves.

do caspain then and add it here just say you used caspain to do bench

i will add mine later or tomorrow
