Not bad. got a B in window mode and an A fullscreen on an old 7950 gx2. Gameplay was always 60fps and seeing as my cpu/ram are currently underclocked I’m happy. Can’t wait for the game.
What a lot of you guys are missing is that this is a benchmark utility. That means it draws EVERY frame no matter how slow or fast your computer is drawing them. That’s why when your PC is powerful it’ll go uber fast and if it’s slow it’ll play like a scene from the Matrix.
When the game launches I’m sure framerate will be capped/speed will be throttled, and frameskip will be activated. If your computer is slow you’ll be missing frames, not playing in slow motion. The game will drop frames in order to keep the speed up. Similarly, even if your PC is a beast, it’ll never play like the fast forward function on a VCR. Netplay would be a nightmare if it wasn’t set up like this.
Some performance tips:
Set backgrounds and characters to high if you want things to look good. Everything else is fluff and can have a somewhat major impact on performance without adding much visually. Set those to low or off, and your game will still look pretty sweet. Use fullscreen. Resolution has the BIGGEST impact on performance, so if you can’t bear to part with those nice visual options, then lower the res instead.
V-sync is EVIL. It prevents tearing, but can really impact performance. It’s silly to enable it all on the benchmark because the point of a benchmark is to see your PC’s top speed, and v-sync caps it at 60fps (on most LCD monitors anyway). AA isn’t very optimized either, so if you’re using a less-than-beefy card don’t bother. I didn’t notice much of a performance hit from using 16x AF though.
Just with background and chars on high, everything else turned off. I got a C rating with everything maxed, still had a decent FPS average. Hopefully now people pick up the PC version of this
wow an E for my laptop that i bought six months ago …looks like no pc street fighter for me …looks like sf4 on pc will have more connection problems then ps3…
i ain’t whinin, ho! :mad: i love me some Mythbuntu :mad: i was saying it more like a “sucks for me” type thing. my comp is 6 years old i’ll probably buy SF4 through Steam and if it doesn’t run, upgrade my stuff :bluu:
