And from Computerbase there is a comparison between the 6700K and FX 8370:

Nvidia cards are quite CPU limited but the 4670 @ stock should be fast enough to maintain over 60 FPS on average under Full-HD.

Check out this image from the NVGuide, speicifcally looking at the CPU Framerate listed:

While that is a CPU a mosnter amount of threads, but it is low clocked... and not everything is so easily multithreaded, especially a lot of gameplay code in most engines. So that image shows the capability of having "200 fps" were there to be an infinitely fast GPU attached to that CPU. If you are targetting 60fps, I imagine you will be quite fine... even with a 4670 (which is hardly terrible at all).

Cheers.

That benchmarking tool is amazing btw.

So it seems to run pretty well on a 980?

I have a 4970k and a 980. What can i expect running at 1080p?

1080p + Ultra-Preset:

6700K
+ 960 = 42 FPS
+ 970 = 63 FPS
+ 1060 = 74 FPS
+ 980 Ti = 90 FPS
+ 1080 = 125 FPS

8370
+ 960 = 44 FPS
+ 970 = 48 FPS
+ 1060 = 64 FPS
+ 980 Ti = 70 FPS
+ 1080 = 70 FPS

Thanks! I should be able to do 60fps @1080 after adjusting a few settings down from Ultra.

Bench is great. Tons of graphics options.

No SLI support, though, right? It was telling me on screen during the benchmark that I was 100% GPU bound throughout on my 2x980Ti

3840x2160 @ 200% ? I thought the resolution scaling was essentially super sampling. Or is that what happens when the resolution is set to 1080p @ 200%? 200% over 4K is insane.

 

[Dee Dah Dave]

I can get locked 60fps at 1600p with a 980Ti in the benchmark. A bit higher than I was expecting, sweet!

The resolution it shows is the scaled resolution, not the output.

Great stuff.

Extremely in depth.

 

[MagicWithEarvin]

Just curious... do people like motion blur in games? I usually turn it off. Does it have a huge performance impact?

 

[leng jai]

Sounds like a good port. Now the only hurdle is actually downloading the game off the Windows Store with my gimpy internet.

 

[Zackat]

So I need to have the anniversary update to play this?

Worries me a bit, since last time I put it on my computer I had to reformat. My disc kept going to 100% use. Couldn't find the answer for it so I reformatted.

Seems like a good port too, and a game I want to play. Guess I will try it again.

 

[Dee Dah Dave]

With the stated greater performance (1.5 - 2x) in multiplayer, it perhaps would have been helpful for that to get it's own benchmark?

I guess you can still use the framerate display in game though and try stuff out. Hmmm.

Man, the level of depth and detail you guys have gone through is really appreciated. Not just for the guides, but the amount of options in the game to play with, and the fact that the game runs like a dream.

Great work!

This is how a PC version is made, not the FH3 and Mafia III garbage.

Will buy the Ultimate to support you guys.

Cheers, cheers and cheers!

[shotgunbob04]

Wow, that built-in benchmark tool is impressive. I haven't seen anything else of the game yet, but now I'm excited. Definitely will give this game a shot once I finish building my first PC!

 

[Skel1ingt0n]

That benchmark tool convinced me to buy the game. Fucking amazing work, Coalition. Damn.

Real respect for the PC release. Just shows you how much Turn 10 fucked up.

 

[Dusktildawn48]

Holy god does this game run good! Getting bt 90-100 frames on a gtx1080!

 

[wowzors]

Benchmark at 58fps 1440p with a 1080 and 6800k everything maxed and the two settings on insane, hell of a port!

Very impressed.

Unbelievable work you guys have done with the game on PC. I'm gonna buy it just to support good PC gaming practices and yourselves.

Thank you so much for doing PC justice!

 

[hwalker84]

God damned Windows Store!!!! First time I've ever had issues. Seriously. When the preload went live I clicked download and i remember it downloading something small. Not the full game. I just figured it was a temp file and would eventually download the rest in a few days. Just realized there's no sign of Gears on my PC. Everytime I try and download it says "Try again later, something happened on our end"

Edit: got it working with a combo of 1 and 2 http://www.gamepur.com/news/24477-f...r-try-again-later-something-happened-our.html

That's exactly what I'm running except with a 6700k. Shouldn't you be getting better?

As soon as I buy a new external Wi-Fi card that supports the Anniversary update (yes, that is seriously what's holding me back right now), Gears 4 will be the first purchase I make on the Windows 10 Game store, despite all of my personal issues with it.

So excited to hop in tomorrow night with my older brother just like back in the day, but even more excited to give you more of my money and experience GoW4 in all it's 1440p, 60fps goodness.

Great job on the port, fellas.

 

[IcyRhythms]

The PC version of this game is without a doubt the best looking game of the year. It's not even close

 

[Schlorgan]

I didn't really have a lot of interest in this game, but I might pick it up since it seems like an amazing port.

Edit: For some reason I have $52 on my Microsoft account, so I only spent $10 on Gears 4. That's great.

[terrible]

Damn I wish I wasn't getting the Xbox One disc version for such a good price (wish it was digital). This looks like a great PC release. I'll double dip once there's a price drop I suppose.

 

[Peterthumpa]

Where are all the non-spoilery maxed 4K PC pics GAF?

 

[LaunchpadMcQ]

Messed around in multiplayer a bit and it is smooth as butter, getting 120-165 fps maxed out at 1440p.

GTX 1080
i7 5820K @ 4.2 GHz

Can't wait to try out the campaign tomorrow.

Motherlipping THIS! SMH GAF

 

[Robobandit]

I was just a hair under 60 fps average (58) and my bottom 5 was 52.. so I turned on resolution scale and set it to 5%.

Pretty damn good, imo!

 

[tuna_love]

i think i actually like the motion blur in this game. got a 90fps average in benchmark all ultra settings at 1440

 

[Da InFaMouS NY]

Game runs and looks incredible above 60fps at 1440p with a 980ti.

 

[AndrewDean84xX]

Game runs like a dream. Nearly maxed out and get 75+fps.

1080p + Ultra-Preset:

6700K
+ 960 = 42 FPS
+ 970 = 63 FPS
+ 1060 = 74 FPS
+ 980 Ti = 90 FPS
+ 1080 = 125 FPS

8370
+ 960 = 44 FPS
+ 970 = 48 FPS
+ 1060 = 64 FPS
+ 980 Ti = 70 FPS
+ 1080 = 70 FPS

Is this the absolutely lowest frame the game went or is this an average? 970 + i7 6700 is my exact set up so I'd love to know if this is gonna be a super rock solid 60 or not. Like no stutters or quick 5-6 fps drops or anything like that.

 

[Qassim]

That benchmarking tool looks so, so good. This looks like such a fantastic PC version all around. The guide is really great too.

I think I'm going to upgrade to the ultimate edition, now that Mafia 3 has turned out as it has.. that money can go to upgrading Gears 4 and playing it over the weekend

 

[Sniffynose]

God damn this game runs fucking amazing, and bravo to the team for having hands down the best in game benchmarking system and complete control over just about everything imaginable!

I can't believe how well this is running on both my wife's i5 3570k/GTX 1060 and my i7 6700k/GTX 1070

I was sceptical as hell after how Forza Horizon 3 turned out but damn this game does not let you down in the performance department!

Being able to dynamically swap between 1440p and 4k is fucking amazing, and let's you use every ounce of gpu power, these guys are bloody wizards from the moon!

 

[agentreza]

Anyone noticed some slowdowns/hiccups during cutscenes? I set the game at 1600p with dynamic resolution at 18+ so it doesn't go below 1440p and has been locked at 60 except for some hitching everytime a cutscene starts.

4790k + gtx 980 ti

 

[Sniffynose]

I was just a hair under 60 fps average (58) and my bottom 5 was 52.. so I turned on resolution scale and set it to 5%.

Pretty damn good, imo!

Hell ya! God this is just insane being able to tinker and see the results haha, it's like a micro-game all in itself >_<

 

[J_ToSaveTheDay]

Expecting pretty good 1080p performance from my i7-6700HQ + GTX 1060 laptop!

Maybe even considering upgrading my pre-order to the Ultimate Edition tonight for that early access (EDIT: nevermind, looks like Win10 Store is adamantly no refunds -- not gonna double dip but if I could credit toward the upgrade, I would)

EDIT 2: I am braced for the possibility of my mobile processor being a bottleneck for some settings.

 

[FrsDvl]

Any benchmarks for an i5 6500 / gtx 1060 ?
