update: DOES RESOLUTION AFFECT FIGHT FPS? b257

xtal

Back in march 2013 I've made test to see, if does resolution affects game fps link. For most of the time it did not, but now I've made retest and that's what I've found:



1) 60 -> 40fps for in hive fight with 2 skulks on different resolution ....... I did run demo with r_stats to test what "waiting for GPU" shows. It stays at 0[ms] for whole demo for me. Game seems to be GPU bounded but r_stats doesn't show it?!?

2) There is no difference between dx11 and dx9.

my configuration:
NS2 build 259
CPU i3 3220 (2x3,3GHz)
GPU HD5770

if waiting for GPU = 0 then your cpu is your bottleneck, therefore resolution doesn't matter, only number of entities.

You didn't read what I've written. When GPU=0 resolution makes difference for me.

ah i see please notice that r_stats datas are not correct at the moment for dx 11

But test was mainly for dx9

Did try to reproduce this on longer demo. Tried twice to record demo, play it but after game loads map ns2 hangup after 5-10[sec] of show with red plug on. Could be the problem with Fraps.

Yeah very true. Also, DO NOT use all caps in your title.
