ATI 7970 1920*1080 Ultra settings fraps testing

[9thaccount]

im buying 7970 3gb, are you doing crossfire 7970's and are you completely maxed out, fps with fraps aswell

[superpsion]

The AMBUSH Shot has the big chance to hit and take down the target when it's moving ...

[Terrorstanius]

why the fuck did it say N7 on the dog tags i mean wtf is this, mass effect???

[MikaelBezpaly]

i have the same graphics on medium

[EpicFacePalmz0r]

Oh 42" samsung, 1920x1080.

[EpicFacePalmz0r]

meh got a i7 920(default), 480gtx(default)... and I'm at 60fps on ultra :|

I still don't understand why people upgrade so damn often. It must be your builds because my systems still good for another 1 - 2 years....

[execor2]

@EpicFacePalmz0r 60fps, because you have veritcal synchronization turned on ;o that's why it stays at 60fps.

[EpicFacePalmz0r]

@execor2 Nah I've got that turned off, 60fps was the overall average (guesstimate).

[PilatuS23]

@EpicFacePalmz0r

Your not running at 4xMSAA. You cant't get 60fps with that card on ultra with 4xMSAA enabled.

Not all of us upgrade all the time. My old card is a HD5850.

[9thaccount]

@PilatuS23 can you get 60fps with 4xmsaa enabled without fraps?

[sacriel42]

@9thaccount just about, but when it gets busy it can go below 60 at 1920 1080

[9thaccount]

@sacriel42 thanks for responding, 1 more question, whats you're CPU? I'll be buying i5 2500k alone cweith 7970 3gb. Im not trying to show off or anything just curious how my gaming play will be even when it gets busy

[PilatuS23]

@9thaccount

With 4xMSAA you will have drops to about 40fps. On the Back 2 Karkland maps its worse and really not playable with 4xMSAA.

I now run on Ultra with 2xMSAA and SSAO. Sometimes i have drops to about 50fps but overall it runs great, even on the B2K maps.

[maltonbranch]

@PilatuS23 My thoughts are the same with my 7970 new setup. Check my vids. But yeh with MSAA at x2, the only times when i need to turn it off is the B2K maps. My system is stock. Not OC my cpu, but my 7970 is the Black edition and did come OC'd.

[PilatuS23]

@maltonbranch.

I want to have 60fps all the time. A few drops to 50fps now and then i don't mind. But i don't ever want the framerate to dip below 50fps. Even on Caspian Border i found that with 4xMSAA the framerate would go far below 50fps at some point. I don't like to play a multiplayer game with a low framerate. For me the difference between 60fps and 40fps is huge.

[eiddie123]

lol your gona burn your graphics card, play on max

[amdebk4ever]

love the sv98 :)

[KurosakiSamster]

Nice video. I still despise you for having that card -.-

[hamtetutu]

Is the 7970 quieter than the 6970? I find my 2x 6970 very noisy.

[sacriel42]

@hamtetutu I dont tend to notice, I use sound cancelling headphones 100% of the time so I have no idea how noisy my 6970 or 7970 are. I'd recommend checking something like toms hardware

[JimisOTigris]

@hamtetutu i've got a n 6950 it's noisy as hell

[Jaymobe07]

@hamtetutu Well crossfire makes the fans go up higher. I know my 6850's are loud.

[GTSreviewer]

that last shot was NOT a headshot >_>! More like a shoulder shot xD. Maybe  it was but the blood splatter animation makes it hard to tell.

[GermanShepherdsRule9]

On ps3 you dont see the dog tags in your hand after taking them :/

[Saki630]

what is your CPU? I'm thinking of upgrading to 2 7970s or 2 from Nvidia to match with a i7 930. My concern is that my CPU will either bottleneck or cause my total wattage to get out of hand. -- Good clip

[sacriel42]

@Saki630 Your CPU is very rarely a limiting factor as far as I'm aware, load the game, spawn, alt tab to a performance manager and you will likely see your CPU at 30% utilisation

[Jaymobe07]

@sacriel42 really? My cpu is usually around 90% in bf3. phenom 960T. Even when its unlocked to a 6 core. Right now i just use it as x4 but at 4.4ghz.

[PilatuS23]

@sacriel42.

30% ? My i7 950 @ 4.2GHz runs at 60 to 90% on all core's with BF3. Not a single core will ever hit a 100% but 30% is nonsense.

To bad the 7970 is not enough for 1080p at ultra settings. Even with an overclock to 1150/1600 i still get framedrops to about 40 when it's busy.

[KaboshPenguine]

@PilatuS23 thats the general tendancy of AMD cards though, very high max fps, also lower min fps than nVidia cards

[sacriel42]

@PilatuS23 my 2nd 7970 just arrived \o/

[sacriel42]

@Saki630 Your CPU is very rarely a limiting factor as far as I'm aware, load the game, spawn, alt tab to a performance manager and you will likely see your CPU at 30% utilisation

[sangyuni95]

I'm going to be completely honest, I play this game on medium-low setting and i don't see any MAJOR differences and yet I run it on ~50 fps..optimization on this game is amazing

[ZTserenity]

Good play. I wish I had mouse accuracy on PS3. It is harder being an analogue sniper- but thus more rewarding.

[OpticalGrafix]

I can't believe that this guy has a $600 GFX card..... I wish I had that kind of money.

[Chongomonkey1234]

So how are you liking it? I'm thinning of upgrading

[Lad0Barn0vi]

still no blood

[sacriel42]

@Lad0Barn0vi i guess you didnt watch in 1080p at 1:28

[ranpo677]

Wow just makes me want to get the computer version every time I see how nice it looks and runs. Plus I think the VOIP actually works for you

[sacriel42]

@ranpo677 and less whiney kids :)

[nnaatthhaannx2]

@ranpo677 there is no verbal chat in bf3 on pc... (no voip) just to let you know.

[NitroNuggetTV]

plz can you do a vid about sniping at range.

[Erozom]

@sacriel42 looks good :D

[aboelnaz]

ps... Nice to have u back sniping noobs :p

[azzhou1]

nice... how much did that cost?

[sacriel42]

@azzhou1 £490 english pounds

[Tehflu42]

What's the difference between the SV98, L96, and the M40? I've heard a lot of people say the M40 is much between than the other two, but there doesn't really appear to be that much of a difference...

[sacriel42]

@Tehflu42 there is a damage difference, the m98 hits a lot harder, also each sniper rifle has a specific bullet speed which changes the amount of drop - I find the sv98 the closest to the baseline BC2 drop which I spent a lot of time perfecting.

[kuelezav]

wow Sacriel its been awhile what happened

[SeLaMeTS]

Wow very nice Graphics card nice gameplay ! Thanks :D

[1111luigui]

0:32 ZAS!!!

[mrmagmrmag]

Finally -- good that you're back (can't wait for the chopper tutorials you promised ;) ).

Question: how can you cope with the noise level of the 7970 in case you are playing without headphones (personally I am waiting for the XFX 7970 dual fan to become available).

[hecjr822]

7970 or 6990 for a 46in tv what would you choose. Would love feed back thanks will post video of killer rigg

[Lockey69]

wb, looking forward to seeing more videos, might catch you in game

[Ksharp1fan]

does the SV98 have any advantage over M98b ?

[sacriel42]

@Ksharp1fan nope, a distinct disadvantage, but i prefer the ballistics

[getsomegloves95]

@sacriel42 the l96 is by far the best sniper.

[sacriel42]

@getsomegloves95 for what reason

[IMattee]

Very nice card dude, I'm upgrading to one aswell. its actually insane how good this card is.

[HS431997]

@sacriel42 Nice can't wait to see more vids from you.

[21cup]

Amazing sniper shots!

[VengeanceDUDE]

Sacriel, Overclock your I7 920!

[sacriel42]

@VengeanceDUDE oh it is, i just dont mention it on the channel

[kettleresprit]

@sacriel42 what does overclocking mean? hear it all the time!

[sacriel42]

@kettleresprit overclocking is taking a peice of hardware and force it to work harder than its original specification, nowadays lots of hardware is sold as 'overclockable' meaning its almost designed to be pushed furher, but often has a downside of overheating which means you need reasonable cooling in your computer case to counteract the heat.

[kettleresprit]

@VengeanceDUDE what does overclocking mean?

[AshTheMohican]

Nice to see you're back :)

[jeskildinho]

you made some Crysis 2 moves the first knife kill :) awesome

[urdead2meboy]

want more more more !!!!!1 welcome back !

[2whiteops]

Thanks god I thought you quit. Sick comp and sniping. Welcome back brah

[T9Eugeneslim]

lol, me 590gtx 80-120fps.

[sacriel42]

@T9Eugeneslim im breaking 100fps, im recording at 60fps, not sure why everyone is playing the 'my dad is harder than your dad' game with graphics cards

[tarkinfish]

@sacriel42 Because they're jealous. Lame really. Weird though, you say that this is recorded at 60 fps (I do believe you don't worry), it's just it doesn't look like 60. Somethong sort of stuttery about it. Did it render at lower FPS then or something?

[Thefilthsurroundsus]

Mind posting the specs of the rest of your comp?

[sacriel42]

@Thefilthsurroundsus they are on my channel

[Thefilthsurroundsus]

@sacriel42 Yeah my bad, I looked but missed it because of new setup YT is running.

[TheXPlaying]

Yeah! Welcome back! :)

[sacriel42]

@TheXPlaying thank you

[xxMeSsImAn97]

I thought u were done making videos

[jhonny1able]

Yo Sacri one question what do you like better the riflescope *8 or the ballistic *12

[sacriel42]

@jhonny1able depends on map

[HS431997]

plus you should make a commentary on your plans for the future

[sacriel42]

@HS431997 on its way

[HS431997]

hey are you going to be posting videos in 1920*1080 on ultra? i hate seeing vids on low anyways im glad to see that you are back

[sacriel42]

@HS431997 i hope so, takes much longer though

[PauseForGames]

Welcome back!

[diegerr0]

i average 70-80 fps with gtx 560 ti sli with ultra settings, only lasts about 30 seconds before they start to physically melt though.

[BlackSunJZ]

Wow I just looked up the specs and I finally found a card that beats mine lol I have a 2 gb nvidia in my laptop

[Tehflu42]

welcome back!

[OwnerDutchie]

Beast card, I bet you spend a lot on it.

You like it? :)

[sacriel42]

@OwnerDutchie its alright, if it treats me nice ill get another and crossfire

[OwnerDutchie]

@sacriel42 Nice, what card did you have before this and is the new one better? :)

[sacriel42]

@OwnerDutchie 6970, yeah about 40% faster but now i have a £280 paperweight on my desk

[Battlefield3Vault]

Oh, what file sizes do you get for an ten minute Recording? I know DXTORY, takes up loads of space for a fact.

[sacriel42]

@Battlefield3Vault its something crazy like 4gb per minute at 1920

[milkman087]

such a beast card!!

[SkyssLeighty]

Um, 7970?

[sacriel42]

@SkyssLeighty ?

[MrZzHD]

@SkyssLeighty The new AMD 7970, released January 9th.

[SkyssLeighty]

@MrZzHD Sweet! Too bad I just got a 6770 and im broke D:

[joachimekstrom]

isn't it quite disturbing with that low contrast!? :)

[TheAssassin1998]

nice to have u back please make more videos and how many times do they patch the helis cuz i want the heli guide to come out

[BorderPatrol121]

what happened to you man? Ive been waiting for some quality videos. hows the heli tutorial coming?

[matty1053]

GTX 560 TI is still better...

[XTAlexTX]

@matty1053 fanboy much?

[likenem]

I was getting some head

[sacriel42]

@likenem shots?

[SolidMGsnake]

Should just record it @ 24 or 30fps. Save you some space and upload time since Youtube doesnt render 60fps. Which they should!

[sacriel42]

@SolidMGsnake if i record at 24fps, when i turn quickly it only recordes a few of those frames, if i record at 60+fps i can slowmo and viewers will see every detail

[TheTiivik]

@sacriel42 just one thing to note when you have such high fps- you could use pixel blending option if you have it in your editing program(or vfx program like after effects). That makes slowmo smooth by not just blending consecutive frames, but actually calculates the inbetween frames so you really get more than 60 frames/sec(ofc digitally calculated frames, but it looks cool as hell). =)

[e1gr]

@SolidMGsnake 24 or 30 fps is just too low to play with and this resolution and framerate, 1 minute of raw fraps video is about 6+Gb on your harddrive. So you have to compress it anyway before uploading.

[Jamielebleu1]

I am upgrading my new pc (first build) and I was looking for a good motherboard 1155 socket but witch one do you have?

[ionizeTV]

Got my gtx560ti Evga 2GB, does the job freaking fine as hell

[kukikarlolukaps3]

what software do you do your slow mo's in? because this doesnt look like its recorded with 60 fps but 25..

[sacriel42]

@kukikarlolukaps3 Adobe after effects, the footage is recorded at 60fps but once uploaded to youtube its flash-ified, if it was -recorded- at less than 60fps, when i turn fast you wouldnt see each frame, it would skip like mad

[xXBUSHMONSTERXx]

sick...all u need is to adjust tha contrast a tiny lil bit

[sacriel42]

@xXBUSHMONSTERXx any specific advice on the contrast, I'm not good at contrast/colour settings config

[xXBUSHMONSTERXx]

@sacriel42 is a lil dark...the colors r fine and the quality is sick

[sacriel42]

@xXBUSHMONSTERXx thanks

[XTAlexTX]

@sacriel42 which HDD do you recomend me to record @ 720p 30fps in any game, thanks BTW nice headshots

[dalhar20]

This is cool. One time I quick scoped a guy in BF3 after he exited the tank I blew up.

[eranxz]

YAY sacriel back!

[We0are0MrB]

this is awesome

[Battlefield3Vault]

How Much did the 7970 Cost you? Did you get the stock model?

[sacriel42]

@Battlefield3Vault £490, Gigabyte 7970 for the warranty, might get another
