So ... How is performance for a 770 2GB? Just curious about how Kepler performs. Having to wait is hard but I want to enjoy this in High/Ultra in 1080/60 with good AA. We don't have a new Doom very often and playing Doom 3 in Low with 30fps was painful for me back then 
Won't repeat that with 4. So I'll wait for a GTX1070 until I jump in. Good thing I have Uncharted 4 and Dark Souls 3.
Won't repeat that with 4. So I'll wait for a GTX1070 until I jump in. Good thing I have Uncharted 4 and Dark Souls 3.Someone in the OT said they couldn't get stable 60 fps at with some medium and high settings with a 980ti@1440p and I'm getting quite good performance at ultra, so I've logged a 19 min foundry run for reference.
Log starts from the start of foundry to 3 gore nests in.
Specs: 980ti@1420/7300 and 4690k@4.5ghz. Using 364.96 hotfix driver.
Settings: Ultra preset /w 16af, smaa (1tx), 100 fov and 1440p
Most of the dips to 60 is me using the map, I don't know why the map is so taxing. Apart from the map I didn't spend any time in the menus or upgrades screen.
The game runs at avg of 88 fps in this level. The previous level ran much better and my average was around 95fps and never dipped below 70 in fights. The foundry seems more taxing. The dip at the end is when I died and went back to menu.

Doom has Denuvo, it seems.
Anyone experiencing performance issues?

Any Fury or Fury X impressions?
I want to run this at 1440p with highest possible settings to never drop below 60fps

Ugh.
Well I killed SLI and now I'm getting 60-70 FPS with all settings on Ultra\Nightmare. I was hoping to downsample as the game looks much better at 5160x2160, but I'll have to wait for SLI.

Fixed the VPN issue. Had to turn off Steam Guard and change my password. Worked instantly.

Has anyone attempted to run this in 4K yet on 980 Ti or Titan X?
Did you try it with temporal anti aliasing disabled at least?

I'm tired of flyvpn (slow)
anyone recommend one for early game unlocks?

No, that's the implementation. Nvidia has a very fast openGL implementation. AMDs can be slower.
Plus, OpenGL supports a lot of features through extensions that D3D11 doesn't. Doom is probably using plenty of them as it requires GL 4.4 iirc.

This game isn't going to have SLI support. it's an id Tech game. Also, the newest nVidia driver is 365.10. So you're out of date.

Was hoping to reach 120fps with everything on low (yeah i know, but gameplay>graphics imo) with a i7 920 @ 4.2GHz and a GTX 970, but seem to be hovering around 80. Haven't downloaded the new drivers, but don't think that should give that big of a boost.
Settle for locked 60, or mess around with the settings?

Something sounds off there. I'm playing at that res with 2 980's in SLI. I've got it in ultra settings at 1xSMAA with everything on except chromatic aberration, film grain and motion blur and it's never dipped below 60fps. On the latest official drivers.
If that old CPU is bottlenecking you, Vulkan will push you framerates up a bit.
BTW, what monitor do you have? Can you actually render 120fps on screen?

There's no way. This game doesn't even support SLI.

I know it's oranges and apples, but i had no problems with Overwatch reaching 120fps. Don't see why this game would have any problems with everything on low, but we'll see. Vulkan did look really good.
Yeah, i have a 144hz monitor. But on lightboost mode at 120hz.
I like the option they have to show a lot of stats. Not quite happy with where the performance is right now though so I'll wait for Vulkan and my 1080 before I keep playing this.
I'm averaging around 80fps with most stuff on medium, big dips whenever there's a lot of smoke all up in my face.

That's the performance I'm getting. How do I prove it?

Is the single player a different engine from the MP piece? I saw there was a hotfix during the beta to add or improve sli.

Yeah, I'd say that the CPU is a bottleneck in this case. A 970 should be able to get to 120 fps at low settings. I can't see new GPU drivers making a 40 fps difference.
It could also be that the engine is not that great with framerates over 60 fps. Remember that it's an engine that is based on idTech5, which was locked to 60. They had to do a lot of work to get away with that limit.
You're probably right as it's OpenGL and at least tech5 didn't support it(well, it could've but scaling would've been very poor) because of the way it was designed, but we don't really know yet for sure.

Well, its time was coming but i had a great run. Will keep my eyes on a good cpu deal while keeping this baby until its final days.

So i5 6600k, GTX 970 8GB RAM should be fine for 1080p60fps with a mix of Ultra and high?
AndyMoogle
Member
Seems so. I'll be able to report what my setup will get as soon as I've finished downloading the game. I'm on a 2500k@4GHz, 16GB RAM and an overclocked 970.
You will probably see some drops whenever you go through a bunch of smoke in some areas, but otherwise that should probably be fairly doable. Maybe more settings on high than ultra though.
On the DOOM steam page, it notes:
So 'game ready' drivers for DOOM should be coming out, but who knows when. They're usually before or on the day of release.

Is it better to totally disable SLI for this?
I've never seen lightboost in person. The impression im getting is that you'd take 120hz lightboost over 144hz without. Is that correct? is lightboost that good?

Great! I'd expect to see a driver tomorrow in that case.
It appears so. From what I remember, this was the case for Wolfenstein: The New Order too, although that was an older engine. I could've sworn that the Control Panel did it automatically for that game, but I might be remembering that wrong.

Anyone running this with i5-4690k and GTX970?

I can vouch for lightboost in that it's really incredible. For me personally, the trade-off of losing G-Sync capability is too big of a loss for me to keep it on, but I use it in older games where I can keep a locked 120FPS, and it's amazing.
Pakoe
Member
There's even less motion blur;
The difference will probably won't be that mind-blowing but hey, i have the option to use it so why not.
Can't remember the difference since i immediately used light-boost after purchasing this monitor, but since i've got used to it i always stick to it.
AndyMoogle

It's not like there is a big difference between 120 and 144 Hz. If you don't have G-SYNC/FreeSync, you should choose 120 rather than 144 anyway.
Baloonatic

The default is "Force alternate frame rendering 2".
Can't hold 60 using the high preset at 1080p with SMAA on my 780ti which is kind of a bummer.
I have an even slower cpu (i7 870 @ 2,93 ghz), so I probably should wait until Vulkan before playing, right?

970 on ultra at 1440p and gsync. Feels like butter

I doubt that.
Vulkan gives a hell of a boost but it doesn't do miracles, 80+ Ultra @ 1080p sounds more in reach for a 980.
Probably 60-70 Ultra 1080 though?
There's no risk. The only risk for VPNs is buying something from the store.
Pakoe
Member
Well, don't get me wrong. I can get locked 60fps, i just can't seem to get to the 120fps. First world problems.
AndyMoogle

I doubt Vulkan will help you get to 120+ fps. 60 fps should be fine either way. Maybe a bit more stable with Vulkan.
