[quote who="Ticktoc" reply="12" id="3608725"] Unfortunately at the moment the DX12 CPU benchmark crashes for me when it tries to load the results page. Seems it's a bug effecting a lot of players. But it did play exactly the same benchmark so I am not sure what it is doing. The normal benchmark does also give CPU results. Are they different?

Anyone know what this changes?

I have, perhaps too indirectly, asked about CPU variations and their impacts on benchmark numbers and gotten little-to-no feedback. It's all about the GPU, I'm hearing. There are two different benchmarks, one of which benchmarks the CPU. That's the one that folks should be posting and comparing whether we think the benchmark is simulating huge unit counts or not, I would think.

People need to run benchmarks at some kind of agreed-upon settings to get answers. My six-year-old quad core with hyperthreading is more than enough to run this game according to the benchmarks I've run. It's the GPU that matters.

I dropped AA to 2x and shadows to medium before the .70 update. Running benchmarks before and after found an increase in framerate for me ([email protected], 12GB RAM, GTX980SC). Perhaps what we're seeing is that some enhancements dropped framerates on certain settings.

This game appears to be, so far, much more dependent on the GPU. That's where you need to spend your money.

Rough topology should be known and readily visible on the minimap. I'm not talking about resources, just the rough topology. Which should have been assessed from orbit, etc. before planting a Nexus.

Let me clarify: I'm not a pissed-off kickstarter at all. I just have my own life and schedule and when I have time to go peek in I always have to wait to do the total uninstall, re-install, patch. I have a very good internet connection and speed. But I have time when I have time. So I've seen next-to-nothing with my own gameplay. Time'll come.

In lieu of an Observer mode, Frogboy, it would be awesome to have some of the dev team (or, especially, you) make a start-to-finish gameplay with play-by-play voiceover or something of the ilk!

Every time I decide to see how things are going I find I can't update and have to uninstall, re-install, and sit through all the updates. Yeah, no thanks. I'll wait a bit longer.

Reply to CPU bench mark fails in Ashes Bugs and Ideas AshesoftheSingularity Forums

Happened to me once. I retried without rebooting and it worked. Probably a silly question, but: are you on the latest drivers for your GPU? When I did the upgrade to Win10 the GeForce Experience told me my drivers were up to date. I knew differently. And it took a bit of work to get the latest properly installed. If you've upgraded to Win10 and never updated your drivers you might try downloading the latest version from their website and doing a clean install. Sorry if that's not the

I have one earmarked but I'd really rather not buy it for an alpha of a game that's not out yet, yanno? Theoretically, what's going to happen is framerate goes up but does the GPU bottlenecking decrease? I mean, at what GPU build will the bottlenecking decrease on my particular build?

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="11" id="3607164"] 100% gpu bound is what you want. It means you are finally fully us ing your video card. [/quote] So, what that means is that my CPU is up to the task and not creating any bottleneck, correct? Were I to upgrade from the 980SC to a 980 Ti, how would I expect that to impact the DX12 benchmark report, Frogboy? Thanks for your time and input!

My experience when I was forced to shop a couple of months ago was that 4K TVs display HD content about as well as HD TVs display SD content. In other words, lousy. I want to enjoy my movies, TV, etc. that I'm throwing at my TV. 4K is for when my next TV dies (knocking on wood) IF the content's being delivered. Just my $.02!

It's a six year old quad core, but who's counting? [e digicons]:grin:[/e] That's got two things turned down. I think AA's at 2x and shadows are mid. My point was that a GTX980 SC'd is the limitation. It makes you wonder what it takes to make those numbers much lower!
