***THE BF4 BENCHMARKS THREAD***

Early days i know but maybe the Alpha vram benchmark wasn't far off.

Don't like to say this - but me thinks you nailed it early on

Im playing BF4 Beta this morning on my i7 4770K / GTX 780 rig and Its not holding a steady 60FPS at all Time for that second GTX780??

Don't forget, it is the beta and does not represent the full release of the game. Chances are, it will be better optimized once the full release on the 1st November. Drivers will be updated again for then.

Overlay doesn't work with 64bit games.

Afterburner overlay does not work with 64bit apparently. Use fraps to monitor your fps.

You don't need to use the overlay on FRAPS. If you enable the dev console and enter:

Render.DrawFps 1

This will give you an FPS counter on the top right of your screen.

OH and is there a CLAN here for BF4, My BF3 CLAN was disbanded and I'd love to join a well structured CLAN for the pretty new game.

Good shout there Snips. I tried some console commands but they didn't work. I tried

Render.perfoverlayvisible 1

To make the gpu/cpu graphs pop up. Maybe the one you listed will work, will try it out cheers.

I constantly use it as it's easier than remembering to run FRAPS while you are already in-game.

I have a Logitech G510, so the CPU ^ RAM usage is already visible as well as running Presision-X & Real Temp on my secondary monitor along side my list of up and coming unlocks

drawfps command didn't work for me

 

[LtMatt]

Is there something you have to do to get the commands working? Aside from pressing the console button of course.

 

[LtMatt]

Think they changed it to

PerfOverlay.drawFps 1

or something like that at least.

I'll give that one bash cheers.

Pitty. They would build something in for the full version anyway.

If you enter 'Render' into the console, it should give you a syntax list, anything remotely look the same?

 

[LtMatt]

What the hell? I quoted you yet my post appears above you Dru?

 

[Nickolp1974]

Yeah you might have a point there.

I'd be interested to see how a well clocked 7970 ala 1200-1250 Core - 1700-1823 Mem would do though.

Will give it a go later, can hit 1250+ on the core with the WF I got.

Cheers Nick! If you can get the memory at 1823 then special things will happen too ala 350gb of bandwidth.

Matt has discovered time travel

You swapped the the dark side

I wouldn't jump ahead and get a 2nd card yet, BF3 had sketchy performance in beta and on release.

Shock horror: recommended specs are correct. lol

 

[LtMatt]

Shock horror: recommended specs are correct. lol

But i was told that the recommended specs were just to sell AMD cards.

 

[humbug]

Titan really sucks in this game. People with CF 7950 get much more FPS for 60% less money.

For GPU muscle CF 7950's Trump the Titan anyway....

This game gives them a real good working over though. The results i posted earlier were at 1125/1500.

 

[Silent_Scone]

And that obviously wasn't the wishful thinking of those with 2GB cards, which lets face it is quite a number of people lol.

Urgh, I've just ordered the standard edition. Refuse to buy into this early access plop.
