Ok, here's a little thing for you that I noticed. Seems rather odd. Changing the water detail setting seems to have quite an impact even when no water is being rendered. Have a look at these comparison pics. They are in pairs with water detail at lowest and the second is at highest...

Cheers Moonbog. It is odd though. I know someone with the same CPU as me running a single 680 and they reckon their CPU never goes above 55%. I can't verify that they are using the same conditions I used today, and I guess that's part of the problem, too many variances. Differences in...

I'll try not to slice my wrists over the issue :rolleyes:

Heheh :) Am finished testing for the day! I did want to do a run on an EMPTY gulf of oman server just for giggles to see how sli scaling worked when there was no one around. So what you get below is the exact same 3 benches which are duplicated for SLI off and SLI on. I spawned at...

Thanks. You guys are welcome to what little data I have. These are all from 64 player Gulf of Oman, ultra settings with sli gtx 670 For the perfmon images below they ran for a while before I started the game. Basically, where it hits 80% and stays there is when I am in the game...

Well, like I said earlier, in 64 player maps I can see the frame rate dip under 50. At (and on top) the hotel in Oman, looking over the rest of the map is one problem area. I'll take some new FRAP's benches of a game when I get a chance. Even without the hard figures to hand at the moment I...

I find it depressing :D Just built my new PC, 2x 670 in SLI, 3570K, Windows 7 on an SSD, 16gb of RAM, i5 3570k and it struggles on the big games on the Karkand maps. Even with the CPU clocked at 4.5ghz it doesn't make that much difference. In certain areas on those maps I see my frame...

What a great, informative thread. I'm running an I5 3570k @ 4.5ghz with 2x GTX670 in SLI. My system has 16gb RAM and BF3 is installed to an SSD. In short, I'm seeing the same type of issues as others. There are certain parts of maps which just kill the framerate. Changing graphics settings...
