You must be spoiled... I remember playing games at 15-25 fps back in the mid-to-late 90s when I had a crappy video card and all games were going 3d, and then again around the time the 360 rolled out (and PC ports from 360 started coming out) and I only had a GeForce 3. I was happy playing games with the PC I could afford.

Well some games aren't playable at sub 20 FPS but SF4 at 25 should be fine.

I'm not spoiled. I, too, remember those days quite vividly. I was mostly talking about playing a fighter at less than half the capable frame rate. Try running the benchmark at 25fps and then try getting 60fps and tell me 25 is acceptable. Most other games can get away with it, but not fighters (unless they have a hard-coded cap... lolcap).

 

[Antagon]

GPU is a hd4850 (512 MB). VSYNC was on (as I won't turn it off when playing the game either). Everything maxed.

Fights was pretty much a constant 60 fps. During special moves it sometimes went down to 30-40 fps, but that's only a fraction of a second when zoomed in. The game runs great.

For some reason my Geforce 9650m GT stops responding when I turn AA on. I just get a black screen. WTF? I have the most updated drivers and use AA with every other game I have. It does run ok with C AA though...

 

[drizzle]

I don't have screenshots, but:

Core2Quad QX6700 2.66 running at 2.97 (rocking it old school. I love them unlocked multipliers)
Geforce 8800 GTX (also old school)
4gb ram
Running Vista 64bit, not that it really matters

No AA. Running in 1920x1200@60. Max settings, shadows, what not (except texture filtering).

I get constant 59,something something (60) fps. I get small FPS drops at the beginning of the fight (when the fighters are introducing themselves), but only 3-5 fps max.

During the fight and special attacks, solid like a rock.

On the white background with the 7-8 characters, my fps sank like a rock (hmm.. two rock comparisons in the same message?), 25-30fps.

Good enough for me and my 2 year old computer.

Just curious if anyone with a relatively recent Macbook Pro can give some stats via Bootcamp. I'm in the market for one and am curious how it would run...

Check the post a couple of notches above yours, its using the same 9600M GT featured in the Macbook Pro and is pulling in a a smooth 60fps @ 144x900 with only shadows lowered. You should be fine.

 

[Diablohead]

Doesn't the DMC4 test give you S and SS ranking if you cream the required power to run it at 60? I keep expecting someone to post an S rank for this.

Marvel at my ultimate power!!!

All settings set high. No V-Sync or AA though. To be honest, it looked great!

 

[Flying_Phoenix]

Well the 8500GT is a pretty terrible card tbh, its the basis for Nvidia's latest integrated part (included in the new Macbook) if you want some idea of the sort of performance bracket its in. Heck, the age old 6600gt will outperform it in many tests. So, those results don't seem too far off to me.

A 4850 should net you something around 10x the performance for less than $100.

Well thank you for indirectly answering my question.

I guess the video cards in the Macbooks are terrible.

[Flying_Phoenix]

Okay I took off V-Sync (which didn't really make any difference...what does it even do?) and got literally 2 FPS on average higher. And went from a "C"to a "B".

So yeah I'll be more then fine with this game.

Kind of surprised, seeing the results here made me think I wouldn't get max FPS (while v-synced) with my flat-panel.

Of course I am OC'ing my chip to 3.0 but still, I thought maybe the cache or something would hold me back. In windowed mode it wasn't too great, but at full screen it seemed like the sky was the limit. Everything set to High, no AA (seems almost redundant with the blurring involved). The new visual modes aren't that great...I'd probably still play with normal.

Glad this is available though. Nice to see, now I know it will run. Time to test it on the macbook running windows 7 too (Desktop does as well). If it runs well, I can finally play some of the non-console owners at work .

I decided to run two tests. The first is with the GPU at stock settings, and the second is with it overclocked. CPU is actually running at 3.2 Ghz in both tests. Too lazy to go back to stock just to see how it would effect results.

And with the GPU overclocked (Core bus at 704 Mhz, Memory at 1248 Mhz):

Cool. Not that it matters since I'll be playing with Vsync on anyway.

Monitor only goes up to 1280x1024 ;_;

 

[Flying_Phoenix]

How do I overclock my 8800GT?

I wouldn't really consider playing a fighting game at less than 60fps. Stick with the 360 version...just get yourself a pad or stick. The 360 controller is really, really awful for SF IV.

Would 55FPS be alright?

 

[Kadey]

I'd have to say. What a difference updating drivers and not having any programs running in the background makes.

I went from 60fps to 100fps just by doing that.

1080p everything max, ink shaders.

[Calcaneus]

I said "what the hell" and decided to try this out on my definitiely non-gaming laptop. It has a Radeon HD 3200 card and a Turion X2 dual core mobile rm-72 processor, and I could get it to work near 60 fps if I lowered the resolution and lowered the textures and effects.

So yeah, probably not going to be playing this game on PC. But man, if I didn't already have a PS3, I think I would be okay with what I got out of it.

 

[TheExodu5]

How do I overclock my 8800GT?



Would 55FPS be alright?

Sure. I'd probably tune down the settings just a tad more to hit that 60fps mark if possible.

Wait, you're on a 8800GT? You're probably only slowing down during special moves and the like, so you're probably fine as is. Should be able to run it beautifully.

To overclock your 8800GT, download Riva Tuner. I'm sure there's a guide to help you out there...sorry don't really have the time to write out a detailed post (at work).

Wow, color me impressed. Very scalable engine if true. This engine is definitely underused in today's games. Easily the best multiplatform engine of the generation.

Good enough to create the best looking console game of the generation (behind KZ2) - Resident Evil 5. Scalable enough to run at 60fps on an HD 3200. Pretty amazing.

Well, when I said lowered resolution and textures, I meant lowered all the way. Like the 640 x 480, "Wii version" visuals, only the backgrounds weren't changed. I just checked how it would work if I upped the texture quality to mid so that it looks somewhat passable, and the framerate would hover around the 50s, acceptable for me but not many others.

So, sorry if my previous post sounded a little misleading, but my expectations for PC graphics are a lot lower than most people would probably accept.

P.S, this is the first PC benchmark I've ever tried out, are there any ones like this for other games?

 

[sechsterangriff]

Well for those who only have laptops out there here are some reasonable settings.

There's one for Devil May Cry 4.

Oh, and I wasn't mislead at all. The fact that this can run well on what's little better than integrated graphics is pretty astounding. Doesn't matter that you're down to Wii specs...it's still impressive.

It says something if a game can run well on high end machines. It says even more if a game can run on an extremely wide range of machines.

 

[brain_stew]

Well thank you for indirectly answering my question.

I guess the video cards in the Macbooks are terrible.

They're great in the context of integrated cards. Put up against modern desktop discrete cards? Yeah, ofcourse they're shitty but that's really asking way too much, you can get a full ION notebook (Nvidia 9400m + Atom + screen, the works) that is much smaller than a modern discrete card so in that context they're really rather impressive.

This is my notebook's benchmark:

Core 2 Duo T9800 @ 2.93Ghz
GTX 260M 1GB DDR3
4GB DDR3 1066MHz

Not bad for a 15" notebook, eh?

Oh, it finally arrived? Nice to see it living upto expectations. Discrete cards targetted at 15" notebooks have took some serious strides lately. Its damn cool that you don't have to suffer sub par performance or an "anti portable" behemoth anymore.

Stuff like that and much improved integrated mobile cards (that will likely be above consoles come their next major revision) are damn important in making PC gaming much more accesible. Incredibly scalable games like this are damn helpful as well.

SF4 actually uses its own engine though. It wasn't developed inhouse at Capcom either. Still, very impressive and it runs great. MT Framework seems to be even better, DMC4 benchmark ran just as well and looked better. Playing RE5 on PC will be lovely.

Didn't know it used a different engine. They both have stellar performance.

I am incredibly anxious to see RE5 PC. Assuming my PC can run it at 1680*1050, with 4x AA, at 60fps, it will easily be one of the best looking PC games out, if not the best right after Crysis.

Probably already announced, but it looks like the game will be coming to Steam. Damn you Capcom for making me buy your game twice. I'll post some off-screen 1080p pics later tonight. I welcome others to do the same.

The only slow down i noticed was when Gen fights Chun li.. the supers are almost in slow-mo...but not quite. Oh - and the test where the 8 world warriors are in a circle also suffers a little. I'll stick to my 360 version, unless my PS3 friends decide to come round to play!

 

[Diablohead]

I ran the benchmark again but this time bumped up to C16xQ, Ink effect on and keeping the vsync on at 75htz

Rock fucking solid and looks damn amazing :lol and my pc only cost £434 or something a few months back, I love my cheap computer.

If LP2 comes to pc around the same release time as the 360 version and has windows live with cross playform play just like Colonies, I am on the PC day one!
