S!

Seems the 4GHz is the sweet spot as above it the gain is less. I rather run stock as other games cause run extremely well anyway.

Does anyone, AMD or Intel even make a cpu that runs stock at 4.0 or above?

The Intel Core i7 3960X comes close in turbo mode (3.9 GHz), but you really would just get the 3930X (3.8GHz) and overclock it for the $500+ difference

Hi.

Thank you very much Flanker35M and Ataros. Very intresting results. I also wait the non-reference models like Asus DCII 7970. Have to wait middle of february.

Here is the 7950

S!

7950HD seems to be a strong performer in it's price class really Times will get really interesting with nVidia's offering coming out at some point.

Thank you.

We knew from our Radeon HD 7970 launch coverage that this architecture does not handle DirectX 9-based apps particularly well. Whether that’s an inherent compromise or a lack of driver maturity will become more evident over time.

What is immediately apparent, though, is that switching into DirectX 11 mode, which hammers every other architecture, turns out to be a simple movement sideways for the Radeon HD 7970 and 7950. In fact, at 2560x1600, both boards perform better using DirectX 11.

Hm... Anyone knows if CloD is more DX9 or DX10 application (or both depending on conf.ini setting)?

Does changing Render=D3D10_0 to D3D10_1 or D3D11 or D3D11-0 in conf.ini change performance?

Hi there Ataros, this is from a post Luthier did on performance.



E. NOTE: DirectX 9 offers slower performance and lower graphic fidelity. If your system meets Recommended system requirements, upgrading to a DX10-capable operating system will offer better performance boost in Cliffs of Dover than perhaps any hardware upgrade.

Hi!

What does D3D10_0 and D3D10_1 means? Off and on? Thanks. I did try D3D11_0 but it had a performance hit for me. Now I use D3D10_0.

Where can you find this ?
