Well, If this game is so demanding in graphics like it seems to be, DX11 may not be so great if fps goes down when it is enabled.
And fps GO down with tesselation enabled.

Default No two computers are the same !

With all this emphasis on computer hardware we also need to realize that if
you have 3 different people with identical hardware , you will most likely have
3 different performance results when they play a game. The OS , software running in the back ground , the driver updates...etc will all have a big effect on the game. So you might feel like you have a killer machine but when you see
one of your buddies with a lesser machine getting better frame rates than you ,
with the same eye candy you'll be miffed.
The bottom line ...
System spec's though somewhat helpful, are very hard to predict.

Well I guess my single core Pentium 4, 2.8GHz will be delegated to Farmville soon. I'm sure the HyperThreading on it won't count for dual core.

I haven't read threw all of these posts so if this info has been up already I'm sorry for the boo boo for putting it up again but the starting point would seem to be an i5 with 4 gigs of ram with a good mid range Dx11 card as this guy had for the two videos.


Core i5-650, 4 gigs of Ram AMD Radeon 6870

Its not that simple.

If you tessellate a given 3D object, then yes, performance will drop. But to achieve a certain effect, you can use tessellation with far simpler objects to achieve the same (or better) visual fidelity than you could achieve with higher poly objects, and so you can actually increase performance, sometimes quite significantly.

It would make a ton of sense to use it for water (waves), terrain and even plane models (think perfectly round engines and smooth bubble canopies with very simple meshes).
