Really?

I could max mine on my 770.

I could but I didn't get a steady 60 FPS, it took a few bad dips and the benchmark averaged at something like 55 IIRC.
I'd rather have a consistent performance.

Turning off PhysX obviously made that go away. I didn't fiddle more to see if I could use the extra processing to use something like GeDoSaTo instead of PhysX.

 

[The Handsome Llama]

i7 3770k @ 4.2GHz
16GB of RAM
2GB GTX 680 OC

GTX 580 to handle the PhysX stuff.

Hopefully I'll be able to run it at high settings 1080p/60fps.

 

[Revengineer]

Yes. Or well, at least in Europe.

Oh really? All of Europe?

VPN unlock pls don't fail me now

 

[FLAguy954]

I'm gonna wait a few weeks to see how performance on my fellow 290 owners' rigs are.

Hopefully we can get the game to look good with a mixture of high/ultra settings sprinkled with a few Hairworks effects (tessellation optimized of course lol) for good measure.

 

[Corpsepyre]

Can't wait to see how bad my AMD 280 sucks with it one.

 

[viveks86]

This game has a lot of GPU PhysX right? Would be interesting to see difference in performance between running it on a high end CPU vs GPU.

 

[CreepingFear]

I'm holding out for my 980 Ti Classified. I don't have confidence in my 780 Ti with all the new fancy effects.

Am I mistaken or did I read somwhere else that nowadays a separate card for physx effects is basically unnecessary? I'm not even sure that physx is tied with Gameworks, I think that everything is under the "Gameworks" platform now?

 

[10k]

Ultra at 1440p. Make my GTX 980Ti do work, Rocksteady!

 

[BY2K]

i7 4770k @ 3.50Ghz.
16GB RAM
HD 7970 3GB

I'm hoping to run it all on High at 1200p/30FPS.

Yeah a separate card is overkill, but you can still choose to run it on CPU or GPU. Some games actually perform better when you run it on CPU. But that's usually limited to basic PhysX effects and not advanced GPU PhysX, as this game claims to have.

 

[iRAWRasaurus]

Waiting for AMD users and their feedback.

2k, please. Upgrade that GPU son.

Honestly, from what I remember, it helped out a lot in Arkham Origins, but not sure if it's considered "GameWorks." I can confirm that it did nothing in Witcher 3, oddly.

 

[cyberheater]

Oops, forgot that this is coming tonight. Only a 33.7GB download required...

Only. LOL. How times have changed.

I'm hoping for magical things on my i5-3570k @ 4Ghz, 8Gig of ram and a GTX970 (overclocked if required).

This could be the best looking game to date.

 

[suddenlyissoon]

i7 4790k
16gb @ 2400
970 tomorrow, 980 ti on Wednesday.

Bring your worst.

 

[Uff duh]

I'm holding out for my 980 Ti Classified. I don't have confidence in my 780 Ti with all the new fancy effects.

I feel ya. Im worried about what this 780 ti can do. The 3 gigs of Vram hopefully wont kill me here. Im gonna have to upgrade soon. Just dont want to spend the 700 bucks on the 980ti to be in the same boat a year and a half later. But those are the breaks I guess.

 

[Fracas]

My 4790k and titan black are ready

do your worst, bats

 

[Static Jak]

Very bad things, Nvidia drivers have started crashing when alt tabbed and using Google chrome. Sometimes just using Google chrome is enough without even being in a game. Never had this issue pre witcher 3 drivers.

I fixed the Chrome crashes by turning of Hardware Acceleration.

 

[oxidax]

Oh my fucking God not this again! Same shit with the drivers happened when the witcher 3 came out wtf!

 

[nubbe]

Waiting for AMD users and their feedback.

The game is co-developed with Nvidia
don't hope for anything the next few months

 

[Deepo]

I just hope they fix the random "driver has crashed etc" happenings in this one

Yup! Just went back to the last of the 340 series driver to put a stop to this, but I guess I'll give this one a go as well.

 

[Phinor]

I fixed the Chrome crashes by turning of Hardware Acceleration.

I wonder if this actually works for most people. I've read multiple reports/posts today about disabling hardware acceleration fixing the issue but typically fixes like these never work for me and that fix doesn't seem to be all that popular, at least not yet. But if it works..

I almost want to try my luck and install these new drivers. The previous ones that never crash (for me) are from March so I'm quite a few driver updates behind already and at 2560x1440, my 970 could use all the help possible.

 

[harz-marz]

Lets see if my i5-2500 can keep on ticking. Not worried about my 970.

Same specs as me!

I can max Crysis 3 yet when I tried Arkham City with physx on it chugged along in the benchmark tool? WTF?

 

[Setsuna]

I fixed the Chrome crashes by turning of Hardware Acceleration.

They were virtual memory crashes right?

 

[Dysun]

When are we expecting to be able to unlock via VPN to a European location?

 

[Enter the Dragon Punch]

Is the 30fps unless you change it in an .ini thing true?

 

[Chesskid1]

they should bundle every pc game with GPUs

the prices i paid for witcher 3 and arkham knight day 1.. so amazing

and i never get games day 1.

 

[Felix Lighter]

I fixed the Chrome crashes by turning of Hardware Acceleration.

That doesn't really fix the issue because with hardware acceleration disabled, I get horrible tearing in videos. Its a work around that I've dealt with but they do need to figure what is happening there.

Fwiw, it worked for me as well. Crashing on Chrome stopped entirely after disabling hardware acceleration. I have a high end CPU, so it made no difference. I can see that being a noticeable trade off for slower CPUs.

 

[BNGames]

I'll have my 980 SLI Benchmark up once the game unlocks.

 

[jett]

I got this early cuz I got it for a cheaper price, no idea it would have issues on AMD. That will learn me! I'll be reporting about my 280X. When does it unlock exactly?

 

[nogoodnamesleft]

980ti is ready.

 

[Joezie]

AMD users be on watch

We also want to note that there are some known issues with the performance of Batman: Arkham Knight for PC owners using AMD graphics cards. We are working closely with AMD to rectify these issues as quickly as possible and will provide updates here as they become available. We thank you for your patience in this matter.

 

[CrichtonKicks]

I know this didn't work for everybody but all of my driver crashes went away when I did a clean install of the driver.

 

[steadfast]

When does it unlock exactly?

Tonight, 9pm Pacific time, if history is any indicator.

 

[ultracal31]

Should be interesting as I don't often go full in on a PC game. My specs:

i7-5820K
16GB DDR4
970

 

[The Stealth Fox]

is anyone vpning?

 

[Piggus]

i7 5820K hexa-core @ 4.4 GHz
16 GBs DDR4
SLI GTX 970s

I dunno, maybe I should just throw my download code away and buy the PS4 version you guys.

 

[Uff duh]

It looks like a quick response for AMD http://steamcommunity.com/gid/103582791433980826/announcements/detail/207511695917042396

 

[Mashing]

My Titan X is ready to rock and roll.

 

[FLAguy954]

I'm holding out for my 980 Ti Classified. I don't have confidence in my 780 Ti with all the new fancy effects.

l'll hold out for an air cooled Fury myself. Can't wait until the embargo ends and I can grab one.

 

[The Stealth Fox]

Does VPN to unlock a game early get you banned on steam?

 

[Uff duh]

Does VPN to unlock a game early get you banned on steam?

Nope

 

[Omega Kirby]

What laptop gpus could run this well?

 

[The Stealth Fox]

Nope

What will you be using? Any guides?

 

[Shy]

Stupid question, that probable can't be answered yet, so for give me in advance.

Does this new arkham knight game driver retain the Kepler performance boosts from the last update.?

I'm rocking an OG TITAN. that's why i ask.

 

[TheFNEffecT]

It looks like a quick response for AMD http://steamcommunity.com/gid/103582791433980826/announcements/detail/207511695917042396

Very glad to see a quick response, hopefully Crossfire support is good!

Spoiler

it won't be

 

[cyberheater]

The latest nVidia drivers now installed and I'm 25% pre-loaded.

I think realistically I'll be playing this tomorrow after work

 

[Unknown Soldier]

My 980 Ti is curious if it can run this maxed out at 4K.
