804
hi guys
i'm gonna write couple problems and relative solutions i came up since i returned to the game with NT. those will be GPU and CPU-wise
my system spec is as follow:
i3 530 @ 2.93GHz (can't OC due to crappy MB QQ)
12GB of random RAM
HD 7950
i play 1920x1080 with vsync on and everything maxxed out (except 1 thing) with everything ticked and maxxed out (shadows on ultra, supersampling aa, ecc)
performance while questing in scarwood reach:
~60fps inside a cavern
~40fps outside killing mobs
~20fps in perspice city
since few days ago i wasn't even able to start the game with the above settings. turned out it was my crappy-chinese-fake650w-PSU who wasn't able to keep up with my GPU, so i played around with CCC while waiting for my new PSU (thermaltake berlin 630, get it if you're in budget!!).
here there are 2 main settings, and one of them changed my game experience (here and in other games aswell). those settings are GPU clock and memory clock. my defaults are 950\1250. the GPU clock is what actually "sucks" power from the PSU and i had to turn it WAY down.. like to the minimun :\ but fiddling with those settings i came up maxxing out the MEMORY CLOCK so i came out with 300\1575 and guess what? rift maxxed out, wow maxxed out, skyrim maxxed out, ecc.
so the first suggestion is: max out the memory clock in CCC and i don't know the equivalent for NVIDIA! this way you can actually underclock your GPU and still outperform its default settings!
first bis: buy a better PSU and crank everything up! i'm actually maxxed out @ 1100\1575 with +20% power limit and haven't had a problem yet.
at this point i was playing almost steady 60 FPS (you just can't steady 60 FPS in this game even on low performance lol) in game but without aa, without shadows and without ground clutter and since i am an eye-candy type of person, i cranked everything up and FPS dropped to 10-20 QQ
so this time turns out my CPU is the bottleneck and so i started fiddling with the in-game settings and i found that off the "big three" (shadows, aa, ground clutter) the biggest (and i dare say almost only) big performance hitter is ground clutter.
so with supersampling aa, ultra shadows and no (actually full radius but 1 density) ground clutter i get the above mentioned performance with the above mentioned system's spec!
so second suggestion, if you have good GPU but bad CPU, is: turn off ground clutter and you're ready to go!
hope this helps, sorry for the WOT and pardon me for grammar's mistakes :D
cya in game :)
