Far Cry 4 PC Benchmark Performance

Theres been a slight delay of our Far Cry 4 benchmark article and for good reason. Ubisoft like always come out with a few patches early after release, and I wanted to wait a week or two before jumping to conclusions about the games optimization.

Anybody getting blue/purple transparent squares all over the screen when playing, it's driving me nuts, it's unplayable in this state, every other game works perfectly.

I have tried everything, uninstalling, installing drivers and the game itself, i have a Asus Gtx970 Strix SLI setup.

Install MSI afterburner check if GPUs are overheating. If so increase fan Speed.

Already done, cards are running around 60-70 degrees.
Every other game runs fine, Shadow of Mordor with all settings on ultra runs like a dream, it's only FC4 that i'am having problems with.

I have emailed ubi, waiting for a reply.

Have you overclocked your memory? or the GPU itself?

SniperControl4169d ago

I did initially, but i have since returned them to vanilla settings, still the same effect.

ram is vanilla as well.

System specs pic related.

I get 65-90fps with setting in second pic related.

However I do get sudden 1 ms drops top 55 fps and game freezes for a second I guess when a new section loads?
I had this problem in Skyrim also, but that was fixed in a later patch.

Hoping this issue is fixed too, otherwise FC4 runs perfectly, have not had a single crash, some flying monkeys and npc's, nothing game breaking.

Edit, this image embedding is terrible...

I can't sit here and act like I know these workers financial situations. And I'm sure nobody wakes up WANTING to go to court. But for the sake of the industry, I wish some of these types of cases made it to trial.

Settlements allow companies to continue to do whatever abusive practices they do. While the trials (should the company lose) would actually force real changes for the better.

But again, I'm not in these workers shoes and I can understand them not wanting to risk it.
