Resident Evil 5 PC Official Benchmark and Release Date

[fullinfusion]

My AMD/ATi combo kills this game. I'd much rather rip out some of your tongues than infract some of you for stupid comments and flame baiting, or I may just close the thread down.. I don't know yet. The perfect solution would be if you all turn into zombies so I would have no regrets blowing your brains out with my shotgun. Keep the bitching and moaning for when the game comes out. Or go outside and do something because these old, lame, fanboyish arguments you are having must be spawned out of sheer boredom. But really, please just turn into zombies people, I have a lot of ammo.

heres a screenie running the mark...and my tri-fire is working flawless lol

and i wished TPU would fix the upload problem... i upload the pic... it shows the pix i want but its not the same as i uploaded? wtf

ofcoures it will because u got 9.0C direct runnin ,instead of 10DX

I don't think this is the Unreal 3.0 engine.

Framework MT Engine

For those with CF replace the .exe of the game by using AFR-FriendlyD3D.exe and see if that help but I doubt it. From what I've observed so far AA is playing a role in the frame rate difference. Remember, ATI cards only use MSAA while those with Nvidia cards are using CFAA modes. Now that only applies (supposedly) at 8xAA but we really don't know much about this game and it's AA profiles, etc. Another issue is that there is no optimization for ATI cards for obvious reasons.

But if you look under a microscope this benchmark really doesn't denote any real value of what to expect in game at this time. Anything over 60 FPS doesn't really show any tangible benefit to frame rates right now so, it really doesn't matter.

However, I will say that no game should ever be coded specifically for any particular video card. It hurts the sales of the game and alienates the developers from potential customers IMO.

ok ill run another test running DX10 and AAx8 for the hell of it...

I knew it. Someone rename this thing to the Lost Planet exe NOW! That should fix all the crossfire problems.

I just ran the bm in DX10 mode setting AA to x8... 67 FPS on both runs but for some reason when i hit print screen and go to paint shop to crop the image all i get is a black screen...
I think its due to having DX10 enabled.... but than again 67 fps is very playable considering a 60Hz monitor will only run 60-62fps
ill run the same test in DX9 x8AA and see what she get's

 

[Jaffakeik]

But still this is not the final products performance,they still got some months to do optimizations for all vcards.So real challenge will be when it comes out

you betcha mate
i ran dx9 x8 aa and i scored 91fps? wtf?
.... im off to see what x4aa does

 

[MadClown]

thanks, got a 11fps boost from 61 to 72fps @ 1680x1050 2xaa all high



the only way i could find it was by searching "config.ini" in the start menu

funny, JobThread=3, was what it was set to, im pretty sure i dont have a tri-core, lol

 

[EastCoasthandle]

This benchmark is buggy. To anyone using this benchmark please locate, find and edit the config.ini file that comes with it. There found within that file is a command line called:
-JobThread
For some this command line is set wrong. For me it was set to 1. I changed it to 2 and noticed a huge frame rate increase. You want to know why? Because this benchmarking program (possibly game) is completely CPU limited. There is also no uninstall program either so you may have to go into your document and settings sub folders to clean up whatever maybe left behind using the add/remove process.

 

[douglatins]

been waiting for this for over a year, cant wait

not much to be excited though

 

[kylzer]

are the frames dropping like mad (19-20fps) on area 3 for anyone else ? hmm maybe time to update drivers

Yeah same here what the hell !!!

And whats the release date ?

Nope, I didn't have that problem.

Simply rename the exe to FEAR for the DirectX9 version of the benchmark and you will get the proper performance in DirectX9 even with max detail including FSAA at 8X. The 3rd part of the variable benchmark will not drop into the 20s anymore in setups that are powerful enough to push past that. (Thats the spot around 50%) With my 4850 X2 2 gig plus 4850 1 gig I finally averaged the 93FPS that seems more accurate with everything maxed @ 1920 * 1200.

I tried renaming the DirectX10 exe to DevilMayCry4_Benchmark_DX10 but it still dipped to oblivion in the 3rd test and textures flickered badly. We still have plenty of time before release so I wouldn't worry. It looks like a must buy.

I'm using Catalyst 9.6.

I get 76.5 with the system in my system specs / DX10/AAx8/Motion blur on/everything on high/1680x1050/variable and thats with my cpu only clocked at 3.2ghz i say crossfire is working great for me ill retest it when i trade out my 4870 for another 4890 this week see if i get a much higher score

Ty for tip i had 1 in that .ini file later will try test again

 

[danc]

Has anyone benchmark crashed with a AMD 4890? I crashed to desktop and have to restart PC because it made my desktop 2D messed up.

 

[adam99leit]

Im running a 4890 and mine runs fine no crashes

 

[EastCoasthandle]

Try 4 in your case.

Have you done this yourself? And where is the ini file?

Edit: I found it. Never mind.

 

[EastCoasthandle]

Correct, I have done it myself and noticed a big FPS increase. For me the file was found in a subfolder called My documents/blah...blah...blah/Capcom/ResidentEvil 5 something or another

Ill give it a try and let ya know. Give me a few min.

Try setting it to 2 printscreen of the results then try 3. See if there is any additional boost.
