Unreal Engine 4 Kite Demo, custom uncapped benchmarks (fraps)

[Alistair]

3770k @ 4.2, Vega 56 , flash with 64 bios, power limit 50%, everything else dynamic.

2017-09-11 11:29:20 - KiteDemo
Frames: 7684 - Time: 138157ms - Avg: 55.618 - Min: 29 - Max: 164

edit: with HBCC just to see if it made a difference

2017-09-11 11:44:37 - KiteDemo
Frames: 7393 - Time: 132750ms - Avg: 55.691 - Min: 30 - Max: 167

Not bad, that's the same as the 980 ti. All the Vega are $300 over MSRP in Canada so I couldn't buy one. Thanks for the result!

 

[psolord]

Thank you for the Vega result. Very interesting.

I will try it later with 1080TI 2025/12600

Edit: pretty much same results like other 1080TI
1080P
Avg: 92.803 - Min: 60 - Max: 200
1440p
Avg: 66.908 - Min: 43 - Max: 198
4k
Avg: 36.522 - Min: 17 - Max: 107

Specs in sig

1440P
39/152/61.4 for min/max/avg

Upping the power limit to 120% gets me
41/167/62.9

Upping to 120% also yielded in 5C higher temps and 6% higher fan speed. Used about 5.5GB VRAM

Thanks guys.

Also how on earth this thread has 19000 views? lol wat?

It's a moving demo 😉

btw I retested with an i5-8600k at 5.2ghz, no difference in frame rates as expected as no cpu limits, very gpu limited!

 

[psolord]

Thanks man. I expected as much.

I think I will be having my 8600k by the next week and this one would be one of the last things I would test. Reason being that it was showing 99%-100% gpu load throughout the run on my 2500k+1070.

There are other UE4 demos that do a number on the cpu however. The Matinee demo and the Infiltrator demo are two of those. My gpu usage on the 1070% dropped to even 60% at some points. Now these will be interesting as cpu tests too.

ps I tried rebuilding some UE4 demos with the newer engines, but the lighting came out all over the place. A friend of mine, who is using UE4 for game development, told me that indeed they have made quite some changes in the lighting department and if you do a straight rebuild, the results will be messy. That's why I did not update the executable. I am not a programmer and don't know how to fix the lighting. :S

Any hope of finding a programmer who can help? Id love to see elemental and infiltrator rebuilt

 

[psolord]

I'll see if my friend can help, once he finishes up with his project.

He is the dev of Starzine.

That was really cool, psolord. Thank you for sharing. This was my result:

Min - 20.0
Avg - 35.3
Max - 101

AMD Ryzen R5 1600 @ 3.8Ghz all core
16GB DDR4 @ 2133
MSI RX580 8GB
1920x1080

I also found the free camera mode to be quite fun. Caught myself flying/walking around for 20 minutes. For those unaware of the keys:

W - Move Forward
S - Move Backward
A - Turn Left
D - Turn Right
Q - Descend (if in kite mode)
E - Ascend (if in kite mode)
Shift - Turbo (if in kite mode)
Tab - Switch between kite mode and human mode

 

[psolord]

Yeah I played some myself. Kinda reminded me of Magic Carpet! 🙂
