grammaton_feather Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 Mig 21 is pretty much unusable at this time in VR (vive). I'm running a Ryzen 1700 at 3.875ghz, GTX 1070 and the fps is too low for this aircraft particularly on dcs 1.5. 8700k brings a needed FPS boost but I'm wondering if it would make the mig 21 playable? My guess is that even at 5ghz plus it wont....
feefifofum Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 As a rule of thumb, DCS runs very poorly on AMD systems. DCS only uses 3 cores of the processor, with the majority of load on a single core. AMD's architecture tends to depend on large numbers of slower cores, whereas intel tends to use fewer, more powerful cores. As a result, you'll see much better performance in DCS on an Intel system, even if the total processor speed is slower than your AMD rig. THE GEORGIAN WAR - OFFICIAL F-15C DLC

Yar, primary use is 3d rendering but I do like my vr and i can't help wanting high gaming fps. I love overclocking as well so would be aiming for beyond 5ghz.
