nVidia GameWorks - What is it?

Show off :o

Game runs strangely, regular dips into the 30's and the game engine is locked at 60fps so 120hz mod does nothing

I modded my ini file for 120Hz and now an option but still only runs at 60fps with the same dips. Now I know why it felt sluggish :(

Good ol UBIsoft :mad:
 
Yep :(

They sure know how to ruin a pretty game Cough*Far Cry 3*Cough.

Just loaded up the geforce experience optimised settings to see if I can get rid of these unexplainable dips.
 
I've given up now, a random stuttery mess, reminds me so much of how Far Cry 3 used to play. I'll revisit it again in 6 months.

The frame drops aren't even related to anything special happening on screen, walking through Havana, one foot step will be 60fps, the next 33fps. I suppose it will make a good advert for GSync :p

Edit: Seemingly it will run at a smooth straight 60fps on a 290x, maybe the Gameworks conspiracy theorists missed that part?

It has been playable and nothing putting me off but I know what you mean. It does feel sluggish and input lag is very noticeable at times. I will also leave this on the back burner for a bit and hopefully 3D will be working. How they rate it as 'Good' is beyond me. They need a 'Has Potential' rating.

Is that on SLI? Or single?

SLI 780's at 1000/6000

or AMD drivers are just superior :D. Joking.

It may well be possible, certainly kills this 'Gameworks cripples AMD' debate on going elsewhere.

I'll be doing what I did with FC3, leaving it 6 months then playing it.

Don't hold your hopes, AC3 was a mess on my 780, 7990 and my 290X's (single and crossfire).
 
Shame its proprietary, i can't devs out side of those already using Nvidia proprietary Libraries taking this up, so use of it will be just as limited as PhysX, whats more i don't see anything new. looks like a lot of Nvidia noise over something already done.

Well, if I am understanding things correctly, Flex should basically be opening up Physx to work better on the likes of AMD cards.

I could have read something wrong though.

Hopefully all this will be "open" to work on any vendor to as large a degree as possible.

Whether or not that happens remains to be seen. For now, I will remain hopeful, just as I will remain hopeful that Mantle will be usable on Nvidia cards, as I am sure I have read they said it would be ;)

Same to you good sir. Average speeds here...

Well, at least the black screen AMD feature is proprietary. I'd hate to see Nvidia implement that.... :)

And, Gregster, I think I have made up my mind to crack open that 780 Classified tonight :)
