Cheers Mart and nice boost to the minimums for sure

Definitely an improvement, I'll have to give it a bash with it not being locked to 60 FPS (That'll be down to the UE3 engine, I assume changing an .ini as per)

But looking back at UE3 games, mins as low as 40 surprise me really.

It isn't fps locked for me and in game, I sit anywhere from 110 to 240 fps

God knows then, the benchmark certainly hits harder than the real game (Which tbh makes the benchmark somewhat pointless, as it's not relevant to the gameplay)
But my FPS was practically pinned at 59.9/60 the entire run through.

You get a mini screen where you have play, options etc before you actually launch the game. It's in that one.

That's the thing, I don't get that mini-screen.

It just starts. I don't even have any command lines in the program launcher.

Was it the same for DX11?

Pretty sure it was FPS locked for me then too.

An in game shot with full details for me.

Make sure you have Vsync turned off if you are being capped at 60fps, I had the same issue till I realised it was enabled.

I'm on a 120hz monitor, Vsync should cap to 120 FPS

Oh, right. Don't know what is wrong in your case then

 

[shankly1985]

Anyone here know if there is FPS command? need one while running Mantle.

Can you enable 3D or is it greyed out like the picture?

 

[shankly1985]

Wow! TrueAudio is stunning the difference it makes to the surrounding environment. Only onto the second level and so far really liking it. Started on Master setting.

What I have noticed is the game don't seem to be using second card? Hwinfo reports no usage.

Not sure why my score is so low.

Horrible minimum there!

 

[Diagro]

2560x1600
All max settings
Min: 34.2
Max: 78.9
Avg: 43.4

Not bad at all for a Single 290x @ 1000/1325 running Mantle

 

[Martini1991]

I know why it was locked to 60 FPS for me (One, it was Vsync, but because it's unable to set itself to 120HZ, derp)

 

[tommybhoy]

What about 3D martini?

It's greyed out for me.

 

[Martini1991]

I also see gains across the board with Mantle over Direct X (Again, I still think the benchmark is largely irrelevant to gameplay)

This is my R9 290 - 50mv @ 1050MHZ/1200MHZ (Pretty quiet)

I've taken pictures on my phone so you can/can't see the OSD and also I screenshots don't always work

Here's the DirectX 11. Could have swore I got higher mins before I updated the driver......................... *Tin foil hat*) ;

Here's Mantle

Higher FPS across the board (Derp)

What about 3D martini?

It's greyed out for me.

Greyed out, I also can't see a none TA option.
