Is it still the case that Windows 8 is better than Windows 7 for performance in BF4? Thinking of picking it up this week.
Yes.
Thanks, but £80 better? I want to buy Windows 8 anyway, BF4 performance is just a bonus but BF4 is running quite nicely for me at the mo
Bin it is, I'd rather have 24GB free space on my SSD.
I have the same attitude mate, only mines not a mouse problem its constant drops in performance to the mid 20s on low presets.
Uninstall and have that space for other things that *work*
I've not played it on Win7 so i can't comment on that. THe latest version of directx 11.1 and 11.2 are only supported on Win8. This is why you get better performance on win8 with BF4.
Pre-loading Ghosts now![]()
Oh dear![]()
How big is it btw? I never preload my games on Steam because it chooses the C: drive at default, i have all my games on either a spare SSD or a 2TB drive.
Edit: LOL 29GB!!!! for a CoD game? Sheesh.
I'll pop that in the op so it doesn't get lost![]()
Excellent work Greg. Very useful info there.

Look at those minimums!!!![]()
Good shout
Thanks mate and happy to add more if people want to get their 680's/7950's/7870's/cf/SLI systems benched and at various resolutions![]()
I did a bench @low presets lol
Was getting phenomenal performance
Edit:
Will try to get some 670 sli benches up this week. Is there some sort of set benchmark we are doing or just giving it 10 minutes or so with fraps on a 64 player server?
You are doing it wrong
No idea why it is bad like that. I can't say I am overly impressed with how the game feels but 1440P can do one and I will be playing this on my 120Hz from now on. I suck badly at these types of games anyways but when a guy comes at 4 of us, I start shooting, he kills the 3 with me, has a cup of tea then kills me, I know I am rubbish and need all the help I can get
MP on max details and any map and a good few minutes would be cool.
Linus Tech Tips has released an early Battlefield 4 benchmark video. More videos to come in the future, including Ram, CPU, GTX 780ti and R9 290 benchmarks.

I couldn't play any games on the 1440 screen i had, even reading the forums and scrolling down the pages would give me a headache, so kudos to you for lasting this long!
I'm tempted by those new 240hz monitors, then you look at the price and know you can get the same results doing the lightboost hack on a lot cheaper monitors...the only difference is the VA panel instead of TN
I might give BF4 1 last try tonight, if the same **** is happening i will never install again (yeah right....)
