Post your dirt 2 benchmarks in eyefinity

[McKie]

I'm kind of curious as what kind of benchmarks others see with there eyefinity set up in dirt 2 . whether it be crossfired or single card.

I kind of want to see how my game is preforming compared to others.

I understand that some will be different. because we all have different systems and configurations.
here is mine

5760 X 1200 crossfired 5870 eyefinity hotfix 9.12
2XMSAA high settings

high 54
low 43

[Mach1.9pants]

OK not sure how you benched it (is there a built in test? Couldn't find it)

However from FRAPs I am getting an average of 58
5760 X 1200 5970 OC'd eyefinity hotfix 9.12
2xMSAA + High

EDIT: which seems high compared to yours, so how'd you bench :)

[McKie]

yes there is a built in bench

Graphics > scroll all the way down to the bottom

[Mach1.9pants]

D'oh :oops: I didn't scroll down LOL. So with post processing now at high (was medium) and running the bench:

Average 52, low 42 (I take you meant average rather than high?)

That makes more sense with my Core2 rather than 940 :)

[McKie]

(I take you meant average rather than high?)

Yeah, Cool . :D

Is anyone able to record with fraps? Everytime I try the game crashes. I have seen many videos on you tube but I cannot get it to record with out crashing.

Repost from another thread in the Eyefinity forum...

Cards are stock 5850s, all benchmarks taken at 5760x1200...

DiRT2 ULTRA preset
Single GPU = Avg 30.0 Min 22.9
Crossfire = Avg 48.4 Min 37.5

DiRT2 HIGH preset
Single GPU = Avg 30.4 Min 23.9
Crossfire = Avg 49.9 Min 39.9

5760x1200
No vsync
Everything at "High"

Specs in sig.

2xAA = 24 minimum, 32 average.
0xAA = 28 minimum, 34 average.

Surprising that AA doesnt; give more of a hit. Is it a DX11 thing?

I was able to record with latest Fraps set at Half-Size, 30fps, recording audio.

Hmmm I can only record the replays if I try to record while I am playing it will just crash the game.

WOW... when i record(fraps 3.03) half size and no sound, my fps go down to 11 :(

Yea mine does as well or around 15 but the play back is smooth it is weird

But again the only way I can record Dirt2 with Fraps is during a replay. There is no way I can record while playing it just will not let me. The minute I hit the key to start recording it just freezes and the game just closes.

[McKie]

I have several different benchmarks


--------------------------------------------------------
1.

5870 X 2 CF

5760 X 1200 res
All settings on high
4XMSAA
Medium post processing

Frames: 11333
Time (ms) 162822
Min 16
Max 144
Avg 69.604
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.

everything set high ultra when possible. everything maxed out to the hilt

Here is the results of the"ultra benchie".

I started off by maxing everything out. High post processing . I had to back down 4 X MSAA instead of 8X because I couldn't even navigate the menu @ 9 FPS. I also had to reduce the Vehicle Reflections from Ultra to High.

5870 X 2 CF

4 X MSAA
High post processing
everything that could go to Ultra except Vehicle Reflections( reduced to high)
the rest on High.


5760 X 1200 res

Frames: 17744
Time (ms) 377493
Min 0
Max 93
Avg 47.005


Basically, I was able to complete the race. but the game was unplayable as you can see from the (0 Min) it was freezing on and off and very sporadic .

I'm pleased with the being able to play with high settings and at least 4Xaa. at such a high resolution .

But.......... I really feel that for having 5870 X 2 I should be getting more for my money

I'm now going to try my GTX 285 @ 1920 X 1200 . results to follow

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
3.
GTX 285
I have 2 benchmarks for my AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition / 8GB DDR3/ GTX 285 1GB/ 1920 X 1200 resolution.

Would not let me set post processing to high . Only Medium.

WOW... when i record(fraps 3.03) half size and no sound, my fps go down to 11 :(


I meant that Fraps is set to capture at 30fps. When i run the record feature, the FPS drops by about 8 frames. Though the .avi playback is still at 30fps, and looks as such.

Are you able to record while playing the game. Or do you record replays. I can't record while playing it just crashes, I can only record a replay.

Which setting makes the mud stick to your window when you go through water?

I had it once, but now it just looks like rocks bouncing off my windshield
