EDIT: Also, Windows 8. Lel.

Windows 8, does, in fact, run things better and faster than Windows 7, and in turn Windows 10 (which I’m using) runs things better than 8, albeit with some compatibility issues on occasion.
I get a consistant 60-80 fps in game with my build:
AMD FX-6100 CPU (6 cores) Overclocked to 3.5GHz
NVidia GTX 970
16 GB RAM
Windows 10 (most recent build)

Since the game is somewhat processor heavy, always remember to close Chrome/Firefox in the background. Modern Browsers are resource hogs and closing them can open up a lot of resource usage for other programs, especially for AMD users where you need those first two - four cores free because no one bothers to work with the 6 or 8 cores you actually have.

[quote=“Raw;52875”][quote=“PonchoDaPig;52873”][quote=“Watsyurdeal;52831”]Specs?

I’ve heard stories of people with high end rigs not being able to run this game and of course some older stuff like my old computer as well.

Maybe if you guys posted your specs we could find a common trend…[/quote]
laptop

What brand processor?
Also, laptop.
Lel.
EDIT: Also, Windows 8. Lel.[/quote]

Intel Core i7-4700HQ CPU
It’s Levano :’( however the ONLY THING (I can’t even play w/ the crappy laptop screen!..) that worked better in a comparison between a similar MSI model laptop was a slightly higher FPS rate and I have to use Game booster to turn off the power manager or even Quake won’t run well

That CPU does look like a potential bottleneck, but overclocked like you have would be ok.

My experience with AMD and Gaming: DON’T DO IT UNLESS YOU ARE DEFINITELY PLANNING TO OVERCLOCK OR YOU HAVE A TINY BUDGET. Just not good enough for gaming.

Either that, or wait for game devs to start utilising 4+ cores.

[PonchoDaPig]

what is good software to overclock an intel cpu? I tried using ThrottleStop but it only goes up to the boost cpu of 3.4 but I heard it can go up to 3.6 GHZ

[waste]

AMD fx-6300 @ 4.4ghz
nvidia gtx780

Running on ultra settings @ 60fps. Theres so many variables with equipment it all just varies.

Lord.

[watsyurdeal]

So…AMD is the trend I guess??? :\

But yea I did notice my game ran better instantly when I went from Core 2 Quad 93000 to an i5 4690k…so yea the processor definitely impacts things.

[Spyder1]

I’m surprised how many ppl complain about FPS on this game. I think it’s time to update your computer’s if your struggling with FPS as this game is not that demanding for current equipment. I run everything on high with only motion blur disabled at 1920 x 1080. I average 170FPS with 3650K @ 4.5GHZ and 290X @ 1100/6000. Game looks good and runs smooth and my build is a few years old now.

I don’t think the devs should allow crappy settings so ppl can have everything washed out with low textures and gain an advantage by having players stand out like a sore thumb. And to those that say “Turn your settings down like every one else”. Why do I want to play it with the settings turned down and making it look like it’s a 20 year old game???

Let them focus on fixing bugs, low FPS on high end rigs, and balancing, not allowing game to look crappy so you can either have an advantage or run it on a pentium 4…

[Deathi]

Mhhh, problem is you only get them fps’s while playing with oneframethreadflag set to enabled. And this feels, in comparision to other fps-games, quite strange. Yes you may get used to it, but it shouldn’t be a mandatory thing if you want more than, let’s say, 80 fps minimum.
And if you look at newer games still using the ue3-engine, you’ll see, that there is much improvement possible. And, not to forget, gpu-power doesn’t really matter after some point, where only your (intel) cpu’s ghz do count.
And as I stated one to two months ago in another thread, if someone wants to play this game on a “minimum spec” system, or with some good framerates on a “recommended system”, and uses no more than the build-in-settings with oneframe switched to off…
Yep, that’s how you make people laugh. Or whine?
Still some things like explosions shouldn’t be allowed to be deactivated.

You don’t need colorless walls just blury walls and playing w/ particle effects off makes spotting air strikes, mines, and hear beat sensors way harder to do, it’s a 2 way street. If u aren’t willing to lower graphics to play games competitively then you’re probably just a pub star and no one cares if people have “slight advantages” in pubs anyway

[KayDubz]

I never understood why people struggle to play this game. I’m playing it on a gtx 660, my fps is a constant 60 and I haven’t once tweaked any video settings.

Im on a bit of a dated workstation, but it has good power. 2 x Xeon E5450 @ 3ghz (eight cores total, each Xeon is equivalent to one Core2Quad Q9650 ) 14 GB of old DDR2 RAM, and an AMD HD 7850 2GB video card. My games are installed to a 1TB Western Digital Black hard disk.

With all low settings and one frame interval on, I get 75 frames v-sync on an older moniter, at 5:4 ratio 1280 by 1024. I get lows of 45 fps though. And I never see my CPUs ever really churning heaving. Maxed out settings gave me an average of 45 fps and they would fluctuate between 30 and 60.

I dunno what the issue is…as I have no problem getting max settings and good frame on Batman Arkham games using the same resolution (havent tried Arkham Knight though yet). And its not like Dirty Bomb is graphically intensive.

Yeah my system is old…but its still got good power and handles other games a lot better, be they of similar or greater graphics. I shouldnt have to put this game entirely on low settings with one frame interval just to get at least a steady 60fps on the resolution Im using.

fortunately, the devs disagree with you

Mhhh, problem is you only get them fps’s while playing with oneframethreadflag set to enabled.

If this was referring to my FPS then thats not the case. I dont even know what this oneframethreading is… I get my 170FPS with ingame settings.

Hi, like he said there is good chance you’re using this option because it’s accessible ingame and it’s “on” by default.

I just had a look in the settings and it must be the one frame interval thing. If it is, then yes mine is on. Sorry for the confusion.

[Dwu]

Well, since the latest patch I’m getting a major framerate drop every time I turn relative to the amount I turn.
Falling down from 200 fps to 30 fps when you’re trying to track your enemy isn’t acceptable.
Yeah, I’ve got Gtx 970 & i7-3930k @4.2Ghz, 16gb ddr3 ram. Should be more than enough to maintain stable framerate but seems like im shit out of luck.

[PonchoDaPig]

I figured it out! my Levano y50 has a Levacrap feature that turns off boost when I’m using my gtx 860m so I was only using 2.4 GHz instead of 3.4 GHz so I forced it to increase my speed w/ Throttle stop but my CPU only goes from 3-3.2 GHz now so should it be maxing out at 3.4 or not b/c the game isn’t demanding?

it only took me 11 months to figure this out
