Far Cry 6 GPU performance not bad at all but is severely bottlenecked by CPU

Yup I know :p Meant that for £13 and if you want to just play FC, it's still pretty good value since the game brand new still costs £40+ :eek: I reckon I'll get a good 15-20 hours or so from the game.



From amazon EU so not sure I'll get it?
Yea. But still does not go down well with me giving money to ubisoft. Also feel the same about EA, but they have been doing a little better of late. Still hate that you need to install and login to a light version of origin to play their games on steam. So they still don't get my money either.
 
Have chuckled hard on the roads, have you seem how bad the driving is? Then some escalate into a fire fight some elements are pretty good!
Yeah, AI is not up to much but never has been to he honest. Putting up some tank gameplay to YouTube, got a few funny moments in there.

Don't think I'll be using the tank too much though, game is easy enough already on the hardest difficult without completing the game.

From the rainforest so not sure I'll get it?
Ah only some retailers allow you to claim it. Because you send a receipt I thought it didn't matter where from.

Also I checked the storage section on the forum and nobody has posted a conspiracy thread in there about Samsung paying ubisoft so that game will only run on their m2 drives.

The game its too easy imo, all you need is a weapon with a silencer, good aim, and armor piercing rounds. You can 1 shot kill everyone lol
 
I have a lot to catch up on with this post but i gather some are having issues with stuttering and / or textures?

Only using 9GB of a 10GB GPU doesn't mean you have enough VRam, that's not how it works, the symptoms i'm seeing here are exactly the sort of things i would expect to see from a lack of VRam.

If all GPU's had enough VRam there would be no such thing as "HD Texture Packs" games would just have those textures backed in, the reason this game has them is because one of the two vendors is, and not for the first time too stingy with VRam, the first 8GB card launched 6 or 7 years ago, 8 and 10GB are not enough for the level of performance of the 3070 and 3080.

Sure, blame AMD but them, if it was them, adding high resolution textures to this game is not their problem, their GPU's can run it because they have enough VRam, if you're on an Nvidia GPU don't use the texture packs and put the blame for all this squarely where it belongs, at Nvidia, don't defend them in this....

Well said Bug.

Tanks are great fun, i genuinely didn't mean to kill any of the civilians that I did in this video.

Long thread so will summarise:

- various people are reporting texture problems and stuttering problems even without the texture pack enabled and even when not approaching anywhere near their vram limit, these issues are also happening on "all" platforms, less so on systems where a certain brand of gpu is used or/and because of its vram amount
- alt tabbing/switching hdr on/off or taking a screenshot fixes the massive fps drop "some" nvidia owners are having (worked for me)
- textures look considerably worse than far cry new dawn, even without the hd texture pack
- ubi have acknowledged the issues and are looking into it

Personally I have no issues with performance and no stutters @ 3440x1440, however, the texture are not loading properly, even when the hd pack is not turned on and not anywhere near the vram limit of 10gb (no stutters or perf issues at 4k either but textures are obviously broke)
 
As a 3080 at 4K user, with HD enabled I was having texture loading issues and low res textures all over the place.

I can confirm I have had zero texture loading issues since I turned off HD textures. So from what I can see the 3080 is VRAM limited in this game when 4K and HD textures are enabled.
 
It’s quite simple. If you are an AMD user, you will always have to turn down ray tracing in all nvidia sponsored titles. I am guessing Dying Light 2 will be crushing AMD cards in ray tracing as usual. If you have an nvidia card, turn down textures in AMD sponsored games as the vram will be breached. For neutral games like Deathloop, everything will be balanced on both gpu vendors.

I have 12GB of vram on my 3080 Ti and don’t have texture loading issues but constant stuttering where fps drops from 76 to 63 for a split second before jumping back to 76.

Problem is what about people who are having issues with textures even without the hd texture pack? Or using the hd texture pack at resolutions less than 4k and still encountering texture problems?

You need more VRAM mate and this is just the start. From now on you can expect that to be the case on most if not all AMD sponsored titles. If you want HD textures you need to sell and upgrade to an AMD card :cry::p:D

Yeah, could be. I don’t even blame AMD. We all know Nvidia would do it. Remember all the useless tessellated stuff under water in Crysis 2? Lol.

Are those people using Nvidia cards by chance? :p
