Great optimization

[Richard Eriksson]

Just wanted to give a cheer for the great optimization now that AI is available to test with.

It is way more optimized than many other titles already. Did some measurements on it and 20+ AI, at the back of the grid yields steady 60 synced fps and no problems at all. The cores are evenly used and the gpu has room to spare.

As a contrast one could take pCars that still has trouble with the optimization of the code. I've got to say, big Kudos to the team for the work done so far. AI is already rather good, physics core is there and better yet: it is already looking to be a solid, optimized codebase.

Okay, looks better with the newest AMD driver
Before that I had installed a beta driver.

I work in IT as a network engineer, don't get to play with graphics cards etc all day unfortunately lol.

Still nice. I'm a software engineer and architect, working on large business and maintenance systems, so i am even further from the hardware these days.

But the geek inside still gets manically excited over new toys. Always will.

I see a trend here I think... as I too work in the IT business... Sort of combined helpdesk/IT-Engineer and all things related to that.

The computers we have at work are sadly meant for just that: All work and no play.
and my boss don't understand why I keep requesting 3 32" monitors, a more powerful pc and a wheel even though I say it will make me much more efficient at my job.

My best mate is an architect for a bank here in the UK, he is also a VMWare specialist and goes around giving talk on VMware for them.

I'll make a thread later and move these posts into a "what's my job" thread. I'll do if later as got rushed in hospital today and just got home and need a rest

You said earlier you play Project Cars at 4K resolution. 4K is the term but not all the resolutions are the same. What is the resolution you are playing with in project cars?

I hope this answers your question:

4K Ultra HD
4K UHD is a resolution of 3840 pixels × 2160 lines (8.3 megapixels, aspect ratio 16:9) and is one of the two resolutions of ultra high definition television targeted towards consumer television, the other being 8K UHD which is 7680 pixels × 4320 lines (33.2 megapixels). 4K UHD has twice the horizontal and vertical resolution of the 1080p HDTV format, with four times as many pixels overall.

OK I play at 5300X1050 and with -

V-sync= off
Anisotrop filter = 16
AA = 8
Fast AA = off
Shadow = High
Smoke= Low
cube map resolution = Low
faces per frame = 3

Full grid of GT3's (Z4 and Macca), constant locked 59fps.

3570K@4.8Ghz, 8GB RAM and a GTX780 running at 1250

what about Lotus125 full grid at monza?

 

[Pedro Cunha]

Yeah. That definitely sounds like some sort of driver or system issue... Or cpu throttling. @Pedro Cunha are you sure the cpu is not throttling back or something? Have you read the temps?

It's strange as your specs would easily run AC without issues, so something is definitely not right.

The game is the one with issues not my system...

So which one are you running for project cars?

Bus drivers in my city (Athens) have some serious ballz

Lmao! They are required in this line of work. Male or female lol! I got tons of stories!
