Anyone playing tonight? TS and game pretty dead atm

PaulyD · 19 Mar 2014 at 20:39

My 780 was always stutter free. Went low when Hainen blow up sometimes but otherwise fine. Don't frame watch but know 30 from 60

Don't play firestorm though so can't comment on fire

Nexus: yup

Damn, Naval Strike looks pretty damn good from the trailer - I'll have to stop playing on Golmud Railway for a few days when this comes out!

jamdale · 19 Mar 2014 at 20:42

ok cheers, to be honest its mainly that map where it happens the most.

Twirlywoos · 19 Mar 2014 at 20:45

do you have msi ab running at all whilst gaming nexus? It may be causing some stuttering, after I unticked enable low level hardware interface I've not had any problems today.

setter · 19 Mar 2014 at 20:46

780 here and on some maps fps will drop to the low 50's, 1920x1200, ultra with x4 msaa. Most demanding maps ive found are paracel and shanghai. Normally average 80fps on theese.

TonyTurbo78 · 19 Mar 2014 at 20:52

yeah im about to fire bf4 up mate

jamdale · 19 Mar 2014 at 20:53

Ok thanks setter, that sounds about right then.

So did the trailer for BF4 and we all know how that turned out.

Never really seen anything below ~67fps on mine except when the physics engine falls apart around badly destroyed buildings or levolution stuff got too out of hand/breaks.

Same settings Rroff as ive mentioned? Iirc your Ghz model is 100mhz faster ono oyt of the box than my rev 1. There was a thread in graphics cards the other day, (cant remember which one). Iirc yourself and a few others were comparing fps on a certain point on hainan resort. Tried it myself and my fps were a good bit lower than your screen shot.

A buggy turd that was released in a barely playable state and still has issues today would be more like it.

Running at 1267MHz for BF4. That would be full ultra 4x MSAA 1920x1080 I was talking about above though these days I mostly play with a mix of ultra and low settings to get as clean an image as possible - higher levels of lighting quality and ambient occlusion make buildings very dark inside when viewed from certain ranges.

Aah, 1097mhz stock boost here. Havent clocked this card much as it's not great tbh. Pic below of the hainan part.

Much higher than the one i took last night. 78 fps iirc.

TonyTurbo78 · 19 Mar 2014 at 22:55

good times tonight

oh and I made the magic figure....rank 100

~15% clock difference and slightly over 13% performance gain (in comparison to my results) - not bad almost 1:1 performance gain for clock increase. Strange though I didn't really see any change between 1188 and 1267 on the core in that scene IIRC was 101 v 103 with both spiking upto ~109.

EDIT: Your screenshot actually has a slightly wider field of view (either higher setting or standing further back) compared to mine or shankly's so theres a little more being drawn.

My FOV is at 90, res at 1920x1200. Ive yet to run any games with an oc on this card, but most ive managed stable in heaven is 1200/3305. In bf3 with a very hefty oc on a single wf 670 (1320/7658) i did get some decent gains. Ive thought about sli'ing again but tbh at present theres no real need.
