With how bloated Bethesda's games are, and mods, having lots of RAM is a good idea for doing a RAMDisk. Especially with loose files. And thanks to Windows' junctions, it's trivial to put files on a RAMDisk. For optimal specs, it's a 3D Ryzen CPU, and the fastest RAM you can get as per the...

Draw calls are an entirely CPU based task. Memory can have an effect when the cache is full, as instructions and small pieces of data are chucked into memory. Which is why we see 5800x3D and the 7000x 3D CPUs doing so well. Just use the included settings, and your GPU won't affect much at all...

Aye the forum is really awful. I get the anti-spam lockouts too. I'll just touch on this: Actually loose files make it much, much worse. As each loose file is an I/O read, and only Optane drives are able to handle multiple file reads without a big increase in latency & drop in read speeds...

This is good stuff. The reason for picking Corvega for draw calls, and Diamond City as another scene to test, is mainly because it's consistent. With settlements, all sorts of things can affect performance. Lots of small items inside one of the static buildings? They'll get culled unless you...

Here are my results CPU - Ryzen 9 5800X3D, stock RAM - 2x16GB DDR4 3600Mhz CL16-20-20-46 (Stock Kingston Fury Renegade @3600Mhz) GPU - AMD Vega 56 Modded - 35-37 (3 seconds in it's at 36, after that flunctuates between 35-37 fps) Unmodded (still has ini edits) - 47-50 (3 seconds in, it's at...

And then we have to supply the ini edits as well. I'll think of something, as it would be great to see what can (or can not) be done for performance

Bit of a necro, but hey. It's been real interesting reading the posts my old tests spawned. Now, about Oblivion performance... There's a bunch of things at play, with there being not much difference between CPU architectures. It's from 2006, and the latest SIMD instruction during it's release...

He didn't tell me what speeds he was running, and he didn't want to test out how it performs with the driver thread on another CCX. So if we got any other Ryzen users here, still a bit needs testing. Also Zen+. I wanna see how that fits in.

A user on Reddit game me his results for Zen 2 and Zen 3, so I've updated the main post. Zen 3 puts AMD just ahead of Skylake's draw call performance.

- Run the game in exclusive full screen, this increases draw call performance by a couple percentage points - Set the process priority to high, also increases draw call performance by a couple percentage points - If you have a large number of cores (>2 for Oblivion, >4 for Fallout New Vegas &...

I know that Americans have a habit of interfering with the politics of left wing countries, but this level of projection is off the charts. You deny that the Democrats voted for giving the US military a pay-rise of 750 billion? Pray tell, which party did you vote for? I'm going to hazard a...

Article: https://www.businessinsider.com/democrats-gave-trump-everything-he-wants-738-billion-defense-bill-2019-12?r=US&IR=T As we can see from actual policy, versus the typical liberal PR speak, there's no meaningful difference between Democrats and Republicans. And, in this specific...

Pure single thread performance is not the sole metric to go for. The Cell's SPUs are vector units, essentially dedicated AVX cores. They work great at crunching floats, but good luck making the workloads threadsafe. Then there's the whole draw call performance thing. Consoles have had APIs as...

Dude asked how to fix his old CPU. He didn't ask for an upgrade. If it was completely dead, sure, say that it's dead and he has no other choice but to buy a new proc. But that's not the case, as far as we know. Giving an irrelevant answer to a question is worthless.

The answer to fixing something isn't to buy a new thing, unless it's completely broken.

There are a couple of LTSC versions. LTSC 2019 Uses 1809, which is what I have on my desktop and server. If it's as far as compatibility is concerned, my old but good Creative Soundblaster X-Fi Titanium's old driver works just fine, albeit needing to use Creative Support Pack to install the...

The only Windows 10 version that you should get over Windows 7, is LTSC 2019, because you can actually turn off all the spyware and bloatware. But it still breaks backwards compatibility with older games and programs, which defeats the whole purpose of x86 computers. Only moved to Windows 10...

Vulkan and Direct3D 12 both use Mantle, which was developed by AMD. The only real difference is that they rejiggered Mantle to be supported by all the GPU vendors rather than just AMD. Unfortunately, Vulkan's adoption has been almost entirely upon the shoulders of indie devs, whereas Direct3D 12...

Interestingly, I found that there are several things you can do to increase draw call performance, measurable with this program. 1. Go exclusive full-screen. You can test that by pressing alt + enter with the demo, and you'll see about 0.10 more fps or so. 2. Set the priority for the process...

ENB's don't add to draw calls. At most, it implements screen space shadows, which does not affect draw calls at all. The only CPU burden is that the ENB has to do funky stuff with the game's assembly code, as there's no source code for the game. 7200 Shadow distance is low for Fallout 4. Before...

As an update, the UtechSmart has great side buttons. They're responsive, and are much easier to press. Best part? It comes with swap-out buttons, so you can customize it however you want. It's a wee bit thinner than The Gigabyte M6800, but just as long. The middle mouse button is a touch awkward...

Edirol MA-15D's are pretty damn good studio monitors, and they can be held with one hand if you're a wee bit on the taller side.

The solution was to install VS 2013, which adds the 2013 toolset to 2019. That way, you can have all the new features of the 2019 IDE, while using the C++ compiler for 2013.

It's only got two side buttons. Those 8 buttons are left click, right click, middle mouse button, upper DPI, lower DPI, default DPI, and the two side buttons. So it's a completely bog standard mouse. I found the UtechSmart 24000DPI, which looks really intriguing. Bunch of buttons, which can be...

Wireless is a pain, I've no desire for having to faff about with charging it, and dealing with whatever latency the wireless stuff adds to it. I'll check those mice out though.

Unfortunately, the mouse turned out to be fud. The scroll-wheel started grinding against the interior of the mouse about five days before Amazon's return window expired, and the side buttons were very awkward to push down. Initially, I thought it was just muscle memory stuff with the side...

Disabling the Spectre fix through InSpectre increases draw call performance by 2.5%. But making the registry edits didn't affect it in any way. Are there other registry settings that disable these security vulnerability "fixes"?

The only noticeable plus in Control, is that it has rather nice dark colours. The same can be done with a standard ambient occlusion, with the discernable differences just being where the shading is applied. If the dynamic indirect lighting is what's revolutionary, that's been more than doable...

Out of curiosity, do you have an existing system that you play Warband on? If so, see if the D9VK wrapper gives you any extra performance: https://github.com/Joshua-Ashton/d9vk/releases

My 965 BE was at parity with my AMD HD 7850 in Fallout 4, Skyrim, and New Vegas when running an ENB. The big problem is that pre-Ryzen AMD CPUs just have horrid draw call performance. If you don't mind reducing draw distances for objects, shadows, and/or NPCs, you can jack up the GPU centric...

If it were Fallout 4 or Skyrim Special Edition, you'd see a huge boost from faster RAM. Not so sure about the older Elder Scrolls and Fallout games. But since you don't play those, I don't think you're gunning for any notable offenders.

Actually, I just noticed that it outputs the .dll to the directory after I checked it on a whim. Odd that it throws the error, but I assume the .dll is just fine?

Genders are social constructs. The only difference between them is what we've decided through social convention and tradition. Your own study says it's just one study, and that many more need to be conducted. As for your liking it to that Otherkin stuff, that's just hogwash.

The error still occurs after both running as administrator, and changing the output directory to S:\Games\test the error still occurs: Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State Error MSB3073 The command "copy "S:\Games\test\nvse_plugin_example.dll"...

In the game draw call test, aye we do: http://www.portvapes.co.uk/?id=Latest-exam-1Z0-876-Dumps&exid=threads/part-3-measuring-cpu-draw-call-performance-in-fallout-4.2548618/page-3#post-39906780 Even though Fallout 4 scales up to eight threads, the Zen 2 processor still was at a loss versus a quad core xLake with hyperthreading...

Not in draw calls, which is the defining performance factor in games with complex scenes. Zen 2 is still slower than xLake at the same clocks, while also not being able to clock as high. Never mind the CCX penalty. See this thread for reference...

Here we go, false science that's not supported by anything. That's exactly what the Nazi's did to justify the exact same views towards LGBT people. For the outsiders looking in, here's the science: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2018/05/180524112351.htm Turns out that transwomen have...

Withdrew troops? Every soldier that left was replaced with Blackwater mercenaries. Now you're deviating. Obama is an unrepentant war criminal. Why are you finding it so hard to understand? Why are you focusing on Iraq and ignoring Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, Yemen, and Somalia? Why are you...

You've been purveying anti-transgender nonsense this whole thread. The intentional misgendering is obvious. If you don't like being called a neo-Nazi, stop regurgitating daddy Steve Bannon's talking points. Besides, you support Trump, who was tutored by Steve Bannon when he employed him as Chief...

Oh yes I wonder. If only we had some idea, some clue! Maybe if they peddled neo-Nazi talking points, we'd be able to know! If only! Fuckin' right wing cunts, I swear.
