So this... is the power... of pc gaming...
I know this is gonna turn out to a consolewar shit-thread but what the fuck am I looking at?
>>333438567
Its the CPU related performance in a specific area in DS3. Basically even with a 6 core processor at 4.2GHz you can barely maintain 60fps.
At least it seems to run fine GPU-wise.
It also means that getting a truly consistent 60 FPS is much harder: throughout most of the game, it requires 4 cores at high-end desktop CPU speeds, and in a few areas it might prove impossible on any standard system. Overclocking a brand new i7-6700K may help bump up your minimum framerate in the game's most CPU-bound areas, but likely won't guarantee a locked 60 FPS.
This saddens me. Whatever is going on technically in the console side is really hampering performance when it comes to PC ports this gen.
>>333438076
At what resolution did they test that? Because if it's 5120x2880 I don't see what's the big deal.
>>333438567
dude who made gedosato and dsfix talking about the game. over all the game runs decent but some some late game areas run like trash regardless of platform.
>>333439293
1080 and he said framerate is dependant on resolution. So if you have a 970 but run the game at 1440 you wont get 60fps. Shit sux.
The character creator has massive frame drops on Xbone, can't imagine that the game is well optimised on any platform.
>>333439293
>All measurements are taken with maximum settings, but at lower resolution to eliminate potential GPU limitations and measure only the impact of CPU performance.
>consolefats trying to prove a point with a few fps drops in a few areas which will probably be optimized in updates pretty quickly
lmfao
>>333439667
>1080 and he said framerate is dependant on resolution. So if you have a 970 but run the game at 1440 you wont get 60fps
He didn't say that. He said the graphic/performance scaling is fucked, and going from 1080p to 1440p (a 33% increase) requires an increase of more than 60% of the performance of your PC to run at the same FPS measurement.
>>333440424
>33% increase
Actually its 77% if you go by pixel number instead of vertical resolution.
>>333440424
Isn't that what I said. Recommended is 970 for 1080 at 60.
If I'm reading this right my i5 [email protected] should be good with settings on medium on the CPU side right?
>>333439340
so like 90% of games released these days there's probably some bugged effect causing FPS drops that will get patched in a couple weeks?
>>333440882
Probably yes for most of the game. The few shitty parts will still run like shit in most PCs.
>Tfw you barely made it.
If I only have a 460 how fucked am I
>>333441715
Very fucked, I guess
>>333441564
Who /750/ here?
29 fps here we go!
>>333442058
Noice, you are already at console-tier performance
>>333442058
Better than consoles.
>>333438076
Oh god, this CPU performance. DX12 port when?
Actually never mind, I'm horrified to think what FROM can do with DX12.
>>333442220
>>333442228
With some tweaking I might get stable ~40 fps
Take that, consolecucks
>>333441564
670 on 1440p isn't going to end well for me
>>333441564
290X+i5 4670@ 4.2 I think I'll live. Either way I'm going to get Game of the year edition next year.
>>333441564

>i5 2500k @ 3.3GHz

The more I see of this port, the less excited I am to play.
>>333443071
>i5 2500k @ 3.3GHz
nigga, WTF are you doing?
>1600x900 resolution, 900p

>Gtx 970
>8 GB RAM
Should I expect 60 fps?
>>333443329
I never bothered to OC it.
I guess I should do that.
>>333443546
Yes
>>333439340
>run like trash regardless of platform
I dream of a day when From makes a game that runs perfectly. I'm not getting my hopes up, but it would be nice.
>>333443667
No, YOU NEED TO DO IT

Just get a proper fan. Shit is dirt cheap.
>>333441564
Not bad 770
>>333438076
>Dark Souls 3’s day-and-date PC release is a very competent version of the game. It loads lightning fast, allows for arbitrary resolutions and runs at variable framerates up to 60 FPS, without any framerate-dependent gameplay effects I could identify.
From the article you linked.
Move along, nothing to see here, just another bait thread
>>333438076
Seems like the power of bad japanese video game devs.
>PS4 runs game pushed to the limit at 1080p struggling to hit 30
>Logically you would need a PC at least twice as powerful as PS4 to run that same settings double the frames
>Then increasing graphical settings to a maximum, requiring a yet still better PC
>Expecint your 760 and 750Ti to 1080p 60fps the game
That's not how it works, chucklefucks.
980 here. I was smart and bought a card that could make sure that any 30fps PS4 heavy graphics titles still run 60 for me.
Also, i74770k was clearly not a mistake.
I'll be enjoying my 60fps 1400p and you can't stop me.
>>333441564

I'm good.
>>333446669
>980 here. I was smart
Ow man, you're in for a ride
>>333441564
780 is still powering along
>>333439040
Or maybe they just can't justify good pc ports because they aren't profitable. Why do you always have to blame consoles? During launch you mustards were going on about how the new architecture would make pc ports even simpler. Were you raped by a console as a child?
>>333446978
>Ashes of the Singularity
and how is this relevant exactly?
>>333446784
I have the same specs, only 1440p.
Am I fucked?
>>333447448
The superior DX12 performance on AMD cards is the point he is making, though it wont be widely adopted for years, so it's pretty much irrelevant.
>fags saying that this is a bad port

>>333441564
A 660
A OLD-ASS CARD
CAN GET A BETTER PLAYING EXPERIENCE
THAN THE FUCKING PS4
P-POWER OF THE METAL
F-FOR THE PLAYERS
>>333442220
>>333442228
Reminder that's at Very High Quality.
PS4 level is medium with some high.
>>333447901
Stupid. Just stupid.
They've been running games like MGSV which ran on PS4 at rock solid 60 anyway and go WOW AMAZING PORT when it's easy fuck to run shit like that.
It's game that struggle to hit 30 on PS4 that are going to require a meaty PC to also not just be at 30. It's logical. You need 2x> power to get 2x performance.
>>333448105
There is no medium you retard. PS4 is all "high".
>>333448138
>meaty
See >>333441564
You can get PS4-level performance(maybe even better) with a fucking 750Ti.
>>333438076
kek, I never get tired of watching mustards realize their autism boxes aren't as powerful as they think they are
>>333438942
So another rehash has shitty optimization as usual.
What else is new? There's games that run amazing on a toaster and games that run like utter horse shit on the ps4 with it's power.
Bad games are bad games no matter the system.
>>333447960
Most gamers have anon. You can't live in the past forever.
>>333448337
I fucking said that. PS4 level performance is easy to get.
If you want 2x PS4, you need 2x PS4.
2x a 750Ti is basically a 980, which is very clear from the benches.
>>333440424
>1080p to 1440p (a 33% increase)
2,073,600 pixels to 3,686,400 pixels is not a 33% increase.
I bought this thing years ago for top dollar. Am I in need of replacement?
>>333448501

>>333447615
Nope
>>333446978
>Jokes API that won't be widespread for 6 years
Yes I'm worried about 980Ti scaling in 2022
>>333448560
Then we're agreeing, why are we discussing?
>>333443546
>970
You'll be fine, especially at 900p.
I'll be aiming for that with a 6300 (4.1ghz) & a 260x. So I MIGHT get a 30+ avg if I'm lucky
>>333448560
>2x a 750Ti is basically a 980,
HAHAHAHA no.
It's a 970, and that's stretching it already, as a 970 can get double the performance AND have higher settings than a PS4.
>>333448617
56.25%
>tfw 1440p master race
>>333449016
Durante even said that a 970 can get 60 fps in most places at 1440p, especially if it's OC.
>>333448904
>Joke API
>won't be widespread for 6 years
>Fastest adoption rate of any DX ever.
It already has at least 4 exclusive titles coming out this year, several publishers, including SE, commuted to DX12, they're trying things out with HITMAN and RotTR, next DX will have a DX12 render, there is a tweet saying FFXV won't get High Level API on PC.
Only publisher who decided to wait it out on DX12 is UbiSoft.
So you keep telling yourself that. But don't worry Maxwell with HBM, err, sorry, Pascal is going to be great. Preorder now.

No it doesn't. It's locked at 16:9 ratios only with letterboxing, that's the opposite of arbitrary resolution support.

He doesn't even say what resolution he was running, this test doesn't tell you much about real life performance
