It seems the GTX 690 can only run 10-20 FPS in that game. When will we reach enough graphics power to play it at a solid 60+?

Minesweeper is the new Crysis.

Its true running the 2D tests in Performance Test 7 show that the GTX 690 is the worst card I have ever owned for 2D.

Unfortunitely I like playing minesweeper.

I seriously do not get Minesweeper. Weird game.

I get minesweeper and play it on rockbox. Naked man playing minesweeper I do not get and wish I never saw.

Wait, so you use the computer... whilst clothed? How bizarre..

It's clearly running out of vram, he should've bought the 6gb 7970 for minesweeper

Very true, minesweeper is very memory intensive, especially if you mod it.

Another game that stutters on Nvidia looooooooooooool

 

[Yaayuh!]

Does minesweeper even use the GPU? I always thought the Windows games where CPU/Software rendered.

Just given minesweeper a go max framerate = 31 fps.

Anyone want to see if they can top my awsome 31 score.

Is it quad card optimised though? I will bench this bad boy of a game and might even see how 'hearts' fairs on my single GPU.

Should have turned off anti aliasing

 

[MyBrainz]

Maybe its cuz he's running Furmark on his back at the same time

Love that dude tho he's a funny guy

 

[Lycosa]

wow, I got to 30fps at one point. don't seem to be able to average over 20 though. I'm just blown away by the eyecandy!

 

[panyan]

what res are we running mindsweeper for the bench tests then?

I suppose we'd best stick to the standards of most gamers. 1080p. Although I can definitely see the advantages of eyefinity minesweeper, the extra peripheral vision would really help tactical awareness.

I'm honestly just appalled by the latest Nvidia drivers regarding minesweeper performance.
