Some games just favor AMD GPUs like AC Valhalla. This could be one of those games.Why do techtubers can’t resist making broad claims based on shit ports? Dev literally said « weeks of patches » coming, but sure, let’s go into Nvidia driver overhead speculation
Damn look at that advanced yoga. Bro got moves for days.is tha T pose they fixed?
Some games just favor AMD GPUs like AC Valhalla. This could be one of those games.
Anyway, new patch out today. Fixes non-RT performance.
Very few. Some on era say no difference, others say there is a difference. Problem is EA servers are borked and most people cant download the patch. And for some reason, the game needs 250GB to install the 5GB patch.
some calling it a nothingburger patch
Solid improvement for me - on a 4090 - in the first world, parts where I was getting 45-55FPS now getting 65-80FPS (max graphics / RT off / FSR2 Quality mode)
What a fucking clown
Always jumping in the worst AMD sponsored ports to come back with the VRAM narrative.
They have AMD’s dick way too deep
I'm sure we'll get the few usual suspects defending denuvo here in no time.
It might be the TAA quality setting, which is also an upscaler.
There a hidden settings that scale resolution with graphics settings . Epic at 100% res scale , Low at 50% . So yea epic +fsr 2.0 dif look better than high lol .
Oh, that's a perfectly designed user experience out there, definitely not a fundamentally flawed design at least. Sure... /s
4k fsr perf + ray tracing even then still unusable. i tried locking 30 but no go. will have abrupt frame drops (game constantly hitting pcie)
Yeah i think someone told me that earlier. The problem is that if i can’t set it to epic and turn down the settings, it changes the preset to custom and i get the same shit IQ. I basically have no choice but to turn on fsr.
ReBAR should be enabled by default in your BIOS as long as you have a modern CPU/GPU.
I did this yesterday and didnt notice any improvements in Koboh.
Don't enable rebar, it will increase vram consumption immensely /from 500 mb to 1.5 gb/ and will cause more frame drops. if anything you will run into troublers faster than you would (increase will be hidden as the game will start to load and offload data in and out more quickly. so you will appear to have same vram usage but with more frame drops. the VRAM management + VRAM metrics all borked with modern systems)
DWM just pisses me off. EA using so much vram is also insane. i saw 600 MB before i launched the game which reduced it to 100 MB which is still pretty significant. DWM though remains high.Don't enable rebar, it will increase vram consumption immensely /from 500 mb to 1.5 gb/ and will cause more frame drops. if anything you will run into troublers faster than you would (increase will be hidden as the game will start to load and offload data in and out more quickly. so you will appear to have same vram usage but with more frame drops. the VRAM management + VRAM metrics all borked with modern systems)
I've solidified my theory, game thinks you only have your %90 of your vram as available. how did I prove this? if you open / run programs that use 600 mb of VRAM, the game "reduces" its own vram so that total system usage is around 7.2 gb. no matter what you open in the background, game will force itself so that system uses 7.2 gb vram as its maximum.
similar to spiderman + hog legacy, this is another game that is wonky with vram management. there's a BIG miscommunication between windows devs + nvidia devs + game devs. I'm sure of it.
no chrome: 6.2 gb in game + 7.2 gb total vram usage
chrome: 5.6 gb in game + 7.2 gb total
whatever you have in the background, that app will not use the free VRAM you have. instead, game will jankily and wonkily reduces its own VRAM consumption (and create performance problems while doing so)
This is unoptimized bullshit behaviour at its peak. if NVIDIA is adamant on releasing 8 gb midrange cards, they have to address this bullshit.
do you see the problem here=? even if we assume game concisously does not use and leave %10 free VRAM, the programs that use extra VRAM will still cause game to swap data anyways. so what's even the point???? no matter what you do, you won't be able to shoot upwards of 7.2 GB VRAM while running this game. you can run all the software in the world. you won't be able to. (and same applies to 10 gb with different values, around 9 gb allocation and 8 gb usage)
why do I bitch about this? because even If I accepted that game leaves VRAM for you to use for your background applications, the said backgroud applications do not use that free VRAM anyways. or that game simply feels threatened and reduces its own VRAM usage when something else uses VRAM. And all of this happens when the VRAM is not even maxed out at 7.2 GB.
last of us was not like this.
windows and games and unreal engine and devs are too dumb. this will make me leave pc gaming. you cant brute force your way out of stupidity.
with such bullshit 12 gb is obsolete and POS. frame gen, francy ray tracing,. ue games are too dumb. with such dumb bullshittery, an 12 gb will barely have enough cvram to run nextgen console games without any of these gimmicks included. nvidia needs to address this asap
problem is not even the DWM. problem is that game chops its off vram budget based on what dwm or any other app uses. all the while free VRAM still... exists and sits there. will never be used. nor by system or game. because the second something else uses vram, the game reduces its own vram usage, despite free vram being available for all apps presnet.
The sole reason I can think of is an badly supervised or unsupervised junior dev not knowing how to manage these situations with proper asynchrony, these are the things you do when you don't know better practices in programming but those are supposed to be caught in a code review, so the senior in charge could point out what's going on and why the code shouldn't pass into the next branch, should have asked the junior to redo it following advices or directly telling them what should be used instead, that's how the junior grow and how they avoid these mistakes into the production branch, but seems like the senior in charge just let it pass anyway... Damn...
