You have a high-end GeForce card, yet you run NO AA or AF?

Missed that... why didn't he just write in the overridden values in the appropriate place in the output?mad_axeman wrote:jl1aisbett wrote:With Antialiasing and Anisotropic filtering set to 16x at the driver level.
Last time I tried, overriding with driver settings didn't even work for me, but of course I'm ATI and that was who knows how many driver revs ago...

X3:TC Demo benches for all 3 current Windows flavors
(Mods please move if I've chosen a bad place to post)
{merged - Carlo}
THX Carlo-SEARCH doofus here
1st off, a hedge of sorts. I do not have access to XP64 so that version was not tested.
System specs as follows :
Coolermaster Cosmos Case, Thermaltake Toughpower 850 Modular
XfX 780i SLI MB w/P08 BIOS, Core2 E8500@3.8 w/PowerMgmt enable
4Go OCZ PC2 6400 SLI EPP, 2X 500Gb WD HD in 5 logical drives
2X eVga GTX 280 SC's in SLI, Realtek HD Audio
1X LG HDDVD/Blu-Ray and 1X Phillips DVDRW
Windows installs were performed fresh on the first physical hard drive which contains all three OS partitions. Since I had new TAGES drivers for Vista and Seven I installed the demo to my H drive under WinXP.
Windows installs were all updated through MS with the exception of mainboard and graphics drivers which were acquired from Nvidia, also all OS's had the latest DirectX applied before graphics driver install.
The Software configuration was s follows:
Windows XP Pro SP3
Windows Ultimate 64SP1
Windows 7 64RC1
Nvidia Forceware Drivers 185.85 for all Os's
Nvidia Mainboard Drivers 15.25
Realtek audio drivers version 2.23
After updating and installing all necessary patches and drivers system restore was disabled for all drives and network was shut down at the hardware level. I used 4XAA and 8XAF as that is what I use during the actual gameplay, version notwithstanding. The only install of any game on this system is to a manual backup of my Steam-install which I use under all my OS's for benchmarking and comparison and one install of Retail X3:TC under Vista for playing with mods.
The results were a bit enlightening to me as very seldom are you able to get the same version drivers for a number of OS's like this, I have never had it happen before. Also I would like to give a word or two about framerate and image quality after each result to give you a better idea of how the actually "present" side by side.

Game Version: 1.2.0.0

Scene "Think" 56.0 average fps 29.0 minimum fps 105.0 maximum fps
Overall average framerate: 78.8 fps
The opening sequence displayed micro-stutters far in excess of the other two versions, still very playable and from actually playing the full version patched I can say that these are a peculiarity to the version of the DEMO and not really reflective of the current game state. Also, my nvidia drivers failed to enhance the in-game settings for AA as far as I could tell, but I may have forgot to select it in the CP.
Next up Vista64 SP1:

This one got the highest FPS, but still evidenced the aforementioned stutter. Image quality was very good with Nvidia drivers enhancing the Application setting to Superscalar AA. This is my main X Universe OS for a while now and it shows why.

Scene "Think" 52.8 average fps 35.0 minimum fps 93.0 maximum fps
Overall average framerate: 78.7 fps
The slowest OS on paper, this one shows why it's important to do "subjective" testing. The aforementioned micro-stutters were least evident with this OS giving it a much smoother feel. The music actually plays during the last two sequences giving me hope of a fix soon, but as I am perfectly content to use the BSG ships on an install of 2.0 TC Steam I'm finding myself just playing Bear McCreary through WMP12 and enjoying it for the time being.
Hopefully this post hasn't bored everyone to death, but as during my trolling here I've yet to see a straight up shootout (I'm probably wrong) using all the same revision drivers on all freshly installed OS's I'll go ahead and post anywho.
Also, I would be VERY interested to hear of anyone who has done this with an ATI crossfire setup as I'm trying to wean my oldest off of HL2 and Oblivion and maybe some eye candy would convince her that it really is "just like Oblivion only bigger and in Space"!!

X3:TC is nothing like oblivion. For one thing there are no horses, or swords.
Plus there is a thread somewhere for people to post their X3 benchmarks. Don't know where though. You might enjoy reading it.

Thx, mods just moved for me. Probably 20 pages back...I should have used "search"...doh moment!
And who says it isn't like a horse? I'll agree the axis's are a bit different and I don't suppose they let ya mount gamma hepts to it but w/ FO3 the possibility theoretically exists. LOL

I completely agree, there is quite obviously something odd going on there and you can see it in so many benchmark examples. Whatever it is it must surely be a strong contender for the wide spread performance glitches which cannot wholely be attributed to codec issues. I hope Egosoft attempt to debug it back to the root cause in their much appreciated efforts to increase performance.Scoob wrote:Interesting how there's no difference on the 'Trade' scores despite a much more powerful GPU - CPU limited possibly? Odd as while busy no core is ever anywhere near max.
Might be in part down to the 'loading blip' during that scene which gives a low FPS while there's HDD activity...guess it didn't have all it needed already loaded for that scene, who knows.

Not sure if it's possible but could we get an updated Rolling demo with the 2.1 exe so that the benchmark accurately represents the new performance increases

- not bad, for an AGP card - it looks amazing onscreen..
- Widescreen @ 1440x900
- everything on high - no glow - medium textures
- offline - a/v disabled - "Best" setting for sound-sampling rate
- ZA in "Game Mode" - Indexing Off - Systray cleared
- X3.exe priority raised to "Realtime" in Task Manager
- and the cat's been fed, as well..
================================================
- ahem, a slight improvement over my last effort..!!
- max everything (no glow)
- wee!!

New graphics card & some more memory, new benchmark.
Not that it seems to have made a great deal of difference. Probably time to buy an i7 motherboard...

Darn people with their SLI and 4870X2s outdoing me 
The ~3.6ghz thing is wrong. I have the gigabyte 'perma turbo' multiplier for the i7 920, so I am actually running at 3.8 ghz.
I wonder if having dual monitors is slowing me down...
EDIT: I just tested with my second monitor off. What a difference!
