***THE BF4 BENCHMARKS THREAD***

Big performance drop in this game with my 970s compared to my old 290 setup. Slightly disappointing.

Regardless of what reviewers slides say, in reality when its all going on and your not just looking at an empty space... the heavy lifting real muscle trumps the lightweight athlete everytime. :p

Yeah, I've lost about 30-40fps over my old system.
I rarely play the game though so it doesn't bother me too much.
 
Well, it is an AMD optimized game, pretty much the same as an nvidia gameworks title runs better on nv cards. Its all about which vendor pays the developer now.

I've played bf4 on a 290 mate, which is comparable to a 780. It does run a bit better. Much moreso under mantle. Rig had a 3570k clocked to 4.5, equivalent to my chip at 4.7. Though tbf to dice its much better since the last patch on nvidia. A while back there was an awful stuttering issue with sli.
 
When i say i get 90 fps average in bf4 I always forget that i use a 1920x1200 monitor. Not sure what a normal 64 player game on 1080p would yield.
 
My frames are appalling compared to what Mantle users are getting...Oh wait, I am actually getting more than Mantle users :D

Anyways, nVidia need a kick up the butt or Dice need a kick up the butt but someone needs a kick up the butt anyways, because SLI is bad for BF4. Stuttering and poor scaling after this length of time isn't very good. If I liked the game, I would roll back drivers to see if that sorts it but as I only play on a Wednesday evening and one card copes perfectly well at 1440P, I can live with it :D
 
I think it is drivers Greg, I had a run around on the new drivers last night and although gsync smoothed things out, you could tell by the perf graph something wasn't quite right.

Yer Paul, if you watched my vids on a single card, that is perfection but with 3 cards, it looks like a paedo's heartbeat in a playground....
 
DICE= Epic Fail with Battlefield since 2010.
I had to uninstall bf4 as I just cant stand the crap anymore.
I wished they made the series fun again but then they have to hire me to get it right.
