GTX 1060 60+fps A.I test Full Grid 29 cars

Looks good, but why didn't you pick the worst case scenario as a reference for setting up the GFX? What happens if you run the same test during rain & night?

You said something like "I also tested with rain and the FPS remained pretty much the same."...not very likely.

 

it runs the same as in the day at night with rain i lose no fps. it's all about my i7 9700k 8 core cpu another person said same as you so i made another quick vid
see for yourself

now tell me not very likely

 

dang dude, WTF is wrong with my 980ti's I can even come CLOSE to matching this.....da fuq.

 

cpu? my i7 9700k 8 core gets abused playing this game, time for you to upgrade?

 

Ya true, mine aint exactly cutting it, back a few years I had a Mobo go bad and had to warranty the whole build and it was during a shortage of i7's so was forced into the i5 6600 Blah.

 

Yeah thanks and sorry for me being a bit rude.

So seemingly, you're "running on the CPU" with those GFX settings. Did you check usage? GPU must have some headroom left I guess.

The image looks decent with those settings. So you're making a really good point here with this thread.

BTW, I ran The ACC Benchmark with your settings and could "only" get 76 AVG FPS. This is down to my CPU.

Cheers.

 

cpu is running all 8 cores at around 75% and up GPU with out vsync is 99% game loves more cores. it's time for me to upgrade GPU though it bottleknecks my cpu by 80% according to bottlekneck calculator

 

It's strange though how you report "the same" FPS then. But then again - no offense - the method you use isn't really a method. You might want to try The ACC Benchmark and do an A/B comparison. If this shows that your GPU is not being bottlenecked but still does the same FPS in sunny day and rainy night conditions - magic! :-D

 

i think real game play is the best way to test as i did. the GPU is a huge bottlekneck though. the cpu pushes it to the max in both cases. most people lose fps during rain/night because their cpu is not up to the task not the GPU.

i would have to use something like an RTX 2080 to see FPS dips during rain/night vs day. but then it wouldn't matter as fps would be so high anyway

results show it's all about the cpu

 

The ACC Benchmark (click) is real gameplay while recording the FPS statistics. You just randomly read FPS numbers from the screen while driving in completely different ways in your "test". Like I said - it's not a proper testing method.

Here's my benchmark in the standard heavy rain conditions at 21:00:

2019-03-23 07:55:54 - AC2-Win64-Shipping
Frames: 4015 - Time: 60000ms - Avg: 66.917 - Min: 58 - Max: 78

And here's the results when I change to clear weather at 12:00:

2019-03-23 07:57:26 - AC2-Win64-Shipping
Frames: 5581 - Time: 60000ms - Avg: 93.017 - Min: 81 - Max: 109

That's a 39 % FPS difference.

Edit: and except for small dips at the very beginnign (first ~ 5 seconds) the GPU was at 100 %, all the time.
