Nice score, how much of an overclock you got on that 970 lol. My 1060 is at stock, think it boosts to 1989.

I havent played ffxiv in a while, think i may have to resub til destiny 2 (which who knows when PC version will hit).

[Lillpapps]

CPU is at 4.5 and GPU is at 1428 boost.

Did they improve the graphics considerably in the xpack?

I did run it from my WD hdd's in raid 0 in case one wonders about the slower loading times

[zeropeorth]

Just for some information on how this game deals with cpu vs gpu power I ran some benchmarks to see how it responds to more clock speed of each plus memory speed; Here is my rig: PCPartpicker; plus a few case fans, a fan hub, and a light strip.

settings	score	avg fps
stock	12705	85.744
mem +500	13046	88.183
core +175	13337	89.853
core + mem oc	13741	92.848
cpu @ 4.7	12910	86.842
combined oc	14000	94.236

for those who were curious as I was as to what the game prefers. It appears as long as you are at/above 4.0, no real need to push your clock any higher for this game; which validates the osd where I was seeing 30-40% usage in game, only seeing a 1.1-1.4 increase, I would say is within margin of error; while if you can get more from your gpu than I can, you'll see pretty good results as I managed a 7.1-8.5 increase in fps (approx 8-10%), so there is something tangible there and might help someone pass a monitor refresh rate threshold.


and all the rest of the info from the last benchmark run for those who want it:

Thats not a bad score for a GPU from basically 2012 (isnt 380 a rebranded 7950 boost?)

bit late but is is it?

[Fascinate]

Yep just checked, R9 380 is a rebranded R9 285 which is a rebranded 7950 boost that came out in 2012 lol. This isnt a bad thing, just shows how well those original radeon cards are holding up today.

285 is Tonga, which is a different chip than the 7950/7970 which is Tahiti.

Ah right meant 280, point is AMD kept rebranding cards for about 34 years....but they still seem to do quite well today

[Fascinate]

Thats weird, i thought 1060's were closer to 980 performance.

You-14245, me-11844. My 1060 is at stock settings but not sure i could make up that much margin with an overclock lol.

[Fascinate]

Hmm that is weird, maybe the benchmark just prefers maxwell somehow. Most benchmarks you look at a 1060 is a lot closer to a 1080 in performance. And CPU could be making up for some of it, my ryzen is at 3.8ghz which clock for clock is about on par with devils canyon, so if you have a CPU overclock that would account for some but not all of the difference.
