Doubt either side has multi gpu support for this yet, i know AMD does not. They say its coming in a future driver. So single cards only, for now. Unless you create your own profile i guess.

Not sure if we're picking the best/most consistent bench option either. Guess we'll discover that in time. Be interesting to see what i get in Mantle vs this score.

No that was a single card run (clocks in post) but i had my cpu at 5.1ghz instead of 4.8ghz as earlier.

The bench i posted in the Mantle thread was GPU at stock 975/1250 and cpu at 4.8ghz.

I had it down to 8 fps in one spot that I noticed. Flys and slows and flys and slows

I am very interested to see how you Mantle users get on compared to what you are posting

Yeah
I will be amazed if I can run that without it looking like a slideshow.

Can people put what OC's they are running on cards / CPU etc? i done 3 runs on mine

First Completely Stock 4770k and 290p
Second 4770k @ 4.5 and 290P STOCK
3rd 4770k @4.5 and 290P @ 1110/1250

Once the Mantle drivers are out, i will rerun the exact same 3 settings, obviously batch counts and stuff is going to be completely different but it should be nearish the same but with the Mantle driver doing the work.

uksoldierboy · 30 Jan 2014 at 19:52

Shame the benchmark isn't very consistent at all

Ran it again a few times and it seems the benchmark changes each time, scenes etc.

Here's my updated results, Attract, extreme. 1180/1625|4770K @4.6

This engine just doesnt seem very well optimized to me, while running the RTS bench i was getting 7FPS yet both GPU and CPU usage were fairly low.

LtMatt · 30 Jan 2014 at 19:58

Welcome to DirectX API.

Avenged7Fold · 30 Jan 2014 at 20:00

4770k @ 4.5Ghz
290x @ 1285/1600

My only run. Seems i got more units than some people, surely they can make this benchmark more consistent. It looks essentially like the thing used in the mantle Demo, so i can imagine some tasty results with the updated driver, even on a stock 8320!

Got the same thing Avenged,

Seems even though it's a benchmark, it change everytime you run it, unit/batch count etc resulting it vastly different scores.

benched better at 1100/1400 by quite a bit over 1200/1500 which is odd, temps were not the issue as im on water so the card didn't throttle.

One things for sure, the batches etc are totally random, however it will be interesting to see how Mantle performs once the cpu is kinda irrelevant
