'A Total War Saga: Troy' benefits greatly from higher core counts
3900X is 37% faster than 3700X and 9900K in the game

Would we actually need 16-20GB vram? That’s a ton of it
violet plank
atm only for mods
there are maybe 2-3 games that can use that much ram
if you don't have it,it will be swapped to your ssd
or normal ram even if you have a ram disk configured
summer comet
There are games that could use that much VRAM?
violet plank
add a few mods to skyrim for example,you could use like all the ram in the world

Dang that’s insane...
violet plank
bfv uses around 4-8gb vram max
i imagine games like fs2020 can use like all the ram it get's,but i don't play those kind of games
fallen harbor
depends a lot on your resolution
violet plank
@molten coral ?
fallen harbor
i dont think bfv ever uses 8gb on 1080p at all
molten coral
?
supple bane
im playing with 1440p ultra and its using 5gb
on FS2020
although my gpu usage is really low for some reason so that might be wrong
only 50%
violet plank
i was wrong,bfv even uses less vram, like 2.5-3.5gb on custom low settings at 1440p
molten coral
Im about to go to the city and buy a hotas but I can look later

supple bane
ah ok lol
violet plank

fallen harbor
if your 8gbs are dual channeled its still ok for most games at 1080p but yeah it is already getting tight even for that
should aim for 16 nowadays
fervent night
my mobo only has two ram slots so i need a new one of those and then more ram
probably just gonna go for 32 so i dont have to buy again
fallen harbor
if you play 1080p and 60hz, 16gbs will be good for a very long time though
16 is a lot even today for that
the day you need 32 youll probably be buying a whole new pc tbh
fervent night
some of the editing software i wanna use needs a lot
fallen harbor
oh fair
supple bane
i think the game is having performance issues
loads of people seem to be suffering from low gpu usage
including me
20 fps is fine for a real slow game like this, but it would be nice to get like 40
in a still menu screen im pinned at 100% gpu... in the game however im at 30-50%
fallen harbor
if the percentage revolves around vram usage then it should be fine
the game wont run smoother by just using more vram, it uses what it needs to use
it works the same as dram in that regard
violet plank
hmm,i expected more vram usage for that game
with all those textures
maybe ms finally managed to code something good
fallen harbor

is fs2020 something i should get if i want a ridiculously realistic plane simulator or is it not that realistic?

@molten coral I just keep mine plugged in tbh.
molten coral
I would have done the same if the port wasn't broken
I dropped the controller yesterday
molten bramble
Oh shit
molten coral
i'm now doubting to just get a new controller or go back to the store and get the official adapter
Don't wanna find out that if I buy the official adapter that it isn't working with the old controller
on the other hand that would save me like 40 euro if it does work

which i7? are your 8gbs of dram single or dual channeled?
i just watched a testing video which runs the game at around 60fps at most in the lowest settings even with the resolution scaled down
so id say it's pretty normal
if you run it a little slower than that then it might be because of other small different factors such as your cpu being a little slower thanthe one used in the test, or single channeled ram instead of dual etc
but your pc seems to be running the game properly if you ask me
your pc just might not be as strong as you think it is

according to the benchrmarks i've found your pc isn't performing worse than intended

the best thing you can do is adding another ram module, for the highest price-performance ratio

Ok! Thanks, ill probably get one then
I did some cursory googling and it said my graphics card and ram and core should be functioning normally with like mid to high graphics and still get a consistent 60 FPS
fallen harbor
i think your motherboard uses ddr4 ram, so id suggest getting an additional 8gb module so you can have dual channel. Battlefield games benefit significantly from dual channel, but your GPU is holding your entire PC back. If you want the highest possible change you will need to upgrade your GPU.

this benchmark uses his exact same specs although it's a desktop pc

and equivalent laptop builds are expected to be around -20% or -30% less powerful because of power supply insufficiencies
this is normal because laptops just can't have as strong psus because of their limited sizes

is your laptop a mac?
considering you are using a mac i am assuming you cannot upgrade your gpu
i guess the only things you can upgrade are the storage drive and the ram
if you have two ram slots, id highly suggest getting another
8gb ram isn't too little for this, but dual channel should definitely do a change
your game would probably be running significantly better if you had two modules of 4
instead of one of 8
so what you can do now is getting another of 8 so you have 8x8

depends on how much performance you want but as i said before bf1 benefits from dual channel tremendously so thats the biggest priority. Id say at least a minimum of dual channeled 8gb (4.4)
latent light
@twilit ridge you have just 1 stick of ram?
twilit ridge
Yup
latent light
having 2 in dual channel doubles the bandwidth, decreases the latency for RAM to CPU communication
older games won't see much benefit, newer games will see a good performance boost

the downside to overclocking is higher temperatures
as long as you manage them well there shouldnt be a big problem

yeah as long as you have the cooling there isnt any issues with overclocking. as long as you dont go ape shit and pump tons of voltage

for cpu is often suggested to have a dedicated dissipater at least. Your mobo should also support cpu oc

but this is a good budget option

maybe its not commonly used in english in computer stuff, i used it because we use it in spanish

Yer that should be fine, only thing i can think of is maybe the hard drive is failing or your installed media is corrupted, but im really guessing now.

the person who gave it to me said it used to have w10 when he bought it but it doesnt make much sense to me since w10 came out in 2015 and this processor 4 years before that. All I can think of is that this laptop actually came with w8 and since this person is a boomer he might have mistook it for w10
since w10 is what people talk about nowadays and not w8
and you know how these people are

Windows 8 had free upgrade to w10 so that makes sense.

even on pirated copies? because it was most likely pirated

Hello everyone , i bought bf1 last month i had alot of fun but there was always a problem fps drops without any reason ... here is my specs:
GTX 1060 6gb
16gb ram 2666mhz
I5 7500
i know that my cpu isnt that great but im saving money for the moment so replacing it isn't a choice but can any one help me with anything like potential fix or tweak to do because it's annoying i get stable 80/70 fps on ultra and one there is some action its drops down to 50 . i checked usages and i found out that th

hi all, i just logged back into BF V after a few weeks of not playing
my FPS used to be 144 constant, but now it's bouncing around 50 - 90 FPS
i updated my graphic card drivers just now and that didn't seem to fix the issue
rx 2700x
RX 5700XT
32gb ram 3000 mhz
molten coral
You sure you are using the same settings in game? Seems weird to me that it's different now
burnt merlin
right, i looked into my graphics settings and it's still on the same "try hard" settings i left it back in early August
oh fwiw, when i logged back in, the game asked for which save i wanted to use, local save or cloud save. I chose local save
the local save was only 1~2 hours later than the cloud save
burnt merlin
changed from windowed mode to fullscreen mode
my fps is more stable at 75 to 80+ fps
but fuck, why is it not going up to 144hz?
random drops to less than 60 fps
😦

Got a weird problem, I just got the game and on startup the sound is extremely choppy, nothing else is doing it

Anyone have a tip for running bf1 with 4 cores? (i5 7400)
I cant pass 60 fps
My cpu is always 100%

-how much free space you have in the disk the game is installed at?
-are you runnning any third party in-game software overlay?
-show a screenshot of your task manager's performance tab while in the game
-show a screenshot of your ingame advanced video settings
-show a screenshot of your CPU and GPU temperatures while in the game
-what is your GPU?
-How much ram do you have? is it single or dual channeled?

@molten bramble since I know you’re pretty into comparisons with pc parts, I’m thinking of giving amd a try for my next cpu, or should I just stay with intel? I don’t really use my pc for anything apart from gaming and the occasional document for work, what’s overall better for gaming? Intel or amd?
fervent horizon
my resolution scale is 100 sorry for late reply , i think i suffer bcz of my cpu . temperatures are fine arround 50/60C but gpu utilisation is far less then cpu utilisation and thats sucks so plz is there any solution to get rid of 100% cpu while replacing cpu isnt an option for the moment . bcz i really liked the game and its starting to ruin my experience
@atomic atlas amd is better for battlefield games since they are cpu intensive and amd got more cores and threads at a less expensive price
than intel
atomic atlas
I’m more or so just looking at the fact pricing tbh, I’m willing to drop 0-800 for a chip since I’m on a good salary anyways, but really I’m not looking to pay for something just for the brand name
I’ve never had issues with my intel chips, but I was willing to give amd a try since I’ve had a few friends say the new gen amd chips are really good
Gpu is fine I’m using a 2080ti so I really just need a cpu upgrade
fervent horizon
i think amd is way better
atomic atlas
Is that because of price for bang?
fervent horizon
just choose an amd that goes with your budget
and your specs
not really its just more stable
intel used to be good
but if u want to buy a 6 or 8 threads or cores with intel
its going to cost u more
than getting them in amd for sure
atomic atlas
I’m not looking to run games at 4K I’m not about that
supple bane
intel is fastest hands down, and no one can argue that they arent, if you want the best gaming experience money can buy, you need to go with intel
BUT
in most cases, intel chips are like 5% faster than their amd counter part
atomic atlas
I’ve always just gone with intel because I know they are good lol
supple bane
and like 20% more expensive
fervent horizon
yeaa
supple bane
so its not worth it in most peoples mind
fervent horizon
like
i got i5 7500 and my friend got ryzen 1700 i think
while my cpu is supposed to be better than his
he gets better performance in bf1
than me
supple bane
thats cuz the 7500 is 4 cores
supple bane
bf titles need 6
atomic atlas
My first cpu was an intel i7 7700 and it’s still going to this date, I ended up getting an 8th gen i8 to replace it didn’t really notice a difference
I7 sorry
Not i8
supple bane
are you using an i7 8700k atm?
fervent horizon
what is ur budget pow
atomic atlas
Yeah currently
supple bane
do you play on 1080p or 1440p?
atomic atlas
Nah I was just looking at cpus for future reference really
I usually do 1440p but I can easily play on 1080
supple bane
i wouldnt bother upgradeing ur cpu for a long while then
atomic atlas
It’s like, as long as I can play 1080 with 90+ FPS I really don’t care
supple bane
on 1440p cpu's have very little impact on fps
the difference between a ryzen 5 2600 and ryzen 7 3800x on 1440p is like 5fps in most games
so considering you already have a nice cpu. you might see a 1 fps improvement or sommot silly
atomic atlas
Yeah it was just for future proofing
supple bane
your system already is future proof lol
if it was me, i would leave it another couple years until you even start thinking of changing cpu's
atomic atlas
Say I was on like an i7 7700 and went for an amd ryzen 3700x would that even be a big difference?
supple bane
at 1440p? no
atomic atlas
What about 1080
supple bane
1080 it would make a difference aye
supple bane
depends on the game, probably 5-10 fps increase on average id say
atomic atlas
Yeah so not really worth dropping 600 aud for a 3700
atomic atlas
What about from an i7 7700
supple bane
which is what im saying. for you to have a decent upgrade you would need either the 3950x. or 9900k
supple bane
mhm
atomic atlas
Yeah no worries
I loved that i7 7700k
Are motherboard prices cheaper with amd??
Or about the same
supple bane
Err, I THINK
If you wanna go current gen Intel you need z490, which are like 180 pounds, current gen amd is b550/x570 which are like 130 and 150 pounds respectively
That's off the top of my head, I'll get back to you
@atomic atlas cheapest z490 I could find was 170 pounds, cheapest b550 was 105, so yeah amd motherboards are cheaper
atomic atlas
Yeah

Nvidia and TSMC are not friends anymore
TL:DR - Nvidia tried to leverage Samsung's cheaper node against TSMC to lower prices, when Nvidia over-leveraged, TSMC saw past the bluff and basically told Nvidia to fuck off

RTX 3090 - 400W
RTX 3080 - 350W
RTX 3070 - 320W
is what I'm hearing
clock speeds are being pushed to their limit
supple bane
what are the clock speeds like on the new cards?
digital hill
Holy shit I don't think 1000w psu will be enough
supple bane
is 2ghz common place before overclocking now?
1000w will still be plenty for a 400w gpu
violet plank
2.2 ghz,but i guess only without power limit
standard clocks around the same as turing afaik
maybe the wanna do the 2021 ampere refresh with samsungs 7nm node? @latent light
and you still can run a 400w card with a 650w ps without any problems
well a good 650w psu
unless you're using a shitty intel cpu and oc it
400w gpu + 350w cpu + 100-150w rest
latent light
you have to account for the wattage spikes on a 400W card
a 250W card can easily spike up to 330 watts

i personally don't find it very worth it to get any of the 2060. Id personally either go for 1660s and upgrade later, or go straight to 2070s

in usa the 2060 ko was within 50 bucks of most 1660s that i personally wouldnt have considered anything less than a 2060 unless you were on a strict budget

2060 isn’t bad but I would definitely just go with a 2070 if I could.

I get around 90-100 fps stable in the shooting range or an empty map in BFV but it gets stuttery and get frame drops down to the 20s. I have an i5 7600/8GB RAM/RX560. Am I facing a CPU or a RAM issue or both?
supple bane
is the ram single channel or dual channel?
ie do you have 1 sticks or 2 sticks of ram?
3090
sinful mantle
@worn prawn You need to add 8 more gigs of ram. The shooting range doesn't render as much detail as the game does.
worn prawn
@sinful mantle @supple bane oh thanks. have another 8 gigs otw so I'll have dual channel too
supple bane
no thats the issue.
sinful mantle
that will work twice as nice
supple bane
if you only have 1 stick of ram. your fps will be cut in half @worn prawn
worn prawn
oh
supple bane
8gb is fine. but you NEED to have two sticks

tv stations wont be able to transmit anything above those res' most likely. unless we can improve our compression game

for the broadcaster it seems it isnt worth the upgrades
unless 4k internet tvs are a thing

the 12 pin can only deliver max of 300w cause of the atx specifications (150w per 8 pin psu side),so looks like there will be more than one on the 3090(80)
but nevertheless it would be much cleaner cause 6+2 pin is actually an improvised shit to deliver more power than the atx standard actually was
but that's on the FE only for now anyways
6x 12v wires could deliver 6a which would result in 430w,maybe we'll see new psu's with connectors,no idea who else they could take advantage else,3x8pin to 12 pin would be too much
