Show off your EW benchmark score

I'm quite jealous of those who can afford better rigs, but for the age and mostly used parts my build is still doing okay.

Keep holding on, you beautiful potato.

Barely any difference from High.

That's what I mean, why not run max when you have those parts lol.

why give up free frames for a barely noticeable difference tbh

Do people really care about a few frames? Especially in non competitive games?

I mean, if I have the choice between a relatively stable 144hz and unstable 120hz, I'd always pick the former
HBAO quality? looks exactly like HBAO standard, yet drops your frames immensely, same with transparent light quality changing ??? but being an equally bad frame hog for no benefit

Main point of this topic is to show off your rig, so yeah.

Yeah, but lowering settings doesn't really show it off :p

Could do 720p at lowest settings and really get a good score.

I wouldn't even notice the different between 120 and 144hz.

I barely noticed a change from 60hz to 120hz in XIV.

I know where you coming from but tweaking setting for max frames without almost no quaility lost is part of the fun.

Idk, I definitely notice the difference in quality. It jumps out to me personally. To each their own I guess.

What the actual...

Not bad for a few years old, off-the-shelf computer because that is still the only thing I can afford. :)

81 seconds of load time holy cow

I wanna upgrade from my old GTX1080ti to a RX6900XT when the prices of GPU starts to normalize a bit
But for about a 4 years old PC running at pretty much Max setting with 2 things turned off, im happy with the score
Specs of the PC are Ryzen 2700X, 32GB ram, Gtx1080ti

My PC is eight years old, and it was a bargain model even then. I think I added more RAM at some point, but otherwise, I haven't done much to it, because....well, I'm a console gamer. I don't use my PC for much more than browsing and sometimes Youtube. And prices are on the rise lately, so.....

sorry the scores don't match. i didn't save the info when i took that benchmark, but i didn't want to run it again to take another picture. it's the picture i used for the sweepstakes submission

Not that it going to matter when we actually get to playing it as I already get 140+ fps on max settings but still.

you made the right choice. i chose the same parts based on what's best for ffxiv

https://www.anandtech.com/show/16214...700x-tested/21
zen 3 wins across the board (you can click the different graphs at the bottom of the main picture

https://www.anandtech.com/show/16495...700k-11600k/11
and zen 3 still wins even after the 11900k came out ^_^

but i run at 5120x2160 >.> and can't always pull 60 fps >.< that is... until the endwalker benchmark! :triumph:

and here's the graph for the 3090 showing it best across the board for ffxiv. this may seem like a "no duh" but for many games the 3080 was close, but after seeing this chart... not close enough for me (i mean look at the res i'm running)

2023 PC benchmark(earlier ones back around page 3)

You downloaded a 2GB file to resurrect a 2 year old thread to tell us about your benchmark for the second-newest expansion before they do the quality upgrade? I got so many more questions but that's the biggest.

Always have the Benchmark on a PC, tested like 20 different PC's in that time period. Gleaned a lot of interesting info on what a variety of CPU's and GPU's do in it. Getting some numbers down with latest hardware offerings before we get around to the Dawntrail benchmark, with it's slightly more stringent requirements. This was the best recent one. Even an i9-13900KS/4090 only got bit over 36k at that resolution. Might pull even at 4k, though.

I see some people have no idea what hardware testing is. Dagget, any interesting data on the older cards vs the RTX series?

I completely agree. I only hardware test my PC on games that actually TEST it. Not gonna start booting up 10 year old games on my 4090 on a 1080p. Can't wait to see DLSS 3.5 come to FF14 said nobody ever.

But if you're wanting to show me your Fortnite boosts on your AMD, I'll give you a pat on the head.

Hang on. Linus, is that you?

The 4090 was on a friend's PC that I got to run the benchmark on and their monitor was only 1440. Rest of mine are all AMD CPU's and GPU's. My monitor is 1920x1200 and maybe someday go to 1440, zero interest in 4k.

Some examples, many of which are oddball APU's/CPU's:

RX 560 + A8-7680 (FM2+ APU) - 5361
RX 560 + Ryzen 3 2200G - 5911
RX 480 + Ryzen 5 7600 - 12642
RX 7600 + Ryzen 5 7600 - 23822
(the 480 and the 7600 GPU's both cost about $280 when I bought them, one before the cryptomining boom, the other since then)
RX 7600 + Ryzen 7800X3D - 28471

I imagine Square is much more interested in low end results, to see what hardware really gets into poor FPS at 1080 as that will be the be the limiting factor in who can play the game comfortably. High end hardware and 4k monitors will be a small fraction of the playerbase and they don't need to worry about performance for them anyway.

New AMD Ryzen 7 8700G APU:

First run, no balancing memory bandwidth (DDR5 6000 atm) or anything else, mini-ITX case, no external video card, no resolution scaling.
