DCS 1080Ti vs 3070 + HP G2 and 60% resolution test

[The_Nephilim]

Hey All,

 

I, just purchased a 3070 and I am going to run tests with my 1080Ti which I just completed and when I get the 3070 this Fri. or Sat. I will conduct the rest of the test.

Before I start, I will write in my full specs of my hardware. I will also include some screenshots and a track file for your testing. So I used the F16 in Syria for my first test and the FPS are at about 45-47. going to post my options as well.

Here is a list of my current Hardware:

 

1. Intel 10700K @ 4.8Ghz 1.29v

2. Noctua NH-U14Heatsink and fan push position.

3. MSI Aror 1080Ti 11GB VRam. Stock heatsink. 452.06driver

4. G.Skill Trident Z 32GB @ 4000mhz.  1.5v

5. Sound Blaster Z latest updated drivers

6. Buttkicker Gamer.

7. Roccat Kave 5.1 analog headset.

8. Win 10 Pro Version 22H2 OS Build 19045-2673.

9. HP Reverb G2 2440x2388 60% Native.

 

I, have 2 screenshots and the FPS I was getting is about 45-47FPS topping out at the end at 50FPS.

Here are the screenshots plus track file, if you would want to recreate it on your setup.

When, I get the 3070, I will first clean it then run the test and see if there is going to be a big difference or not. I am hoping it will bump up the FPS a bitmore and run smoother.

 

Right now when looking left and right I get some microstuter, so I am hoping that gets cleaned up and will be a improvement..

 

 

EDIT: I turned off MSAAx2 and I got 10FPS more..

Hey Everybody,

 

I ran some more tests with the 3070 and I did get a bit more FPS in the same mission about +10FPS with the FPS being 65FPS during the mission in Syria and 69 towards the end flying upwards.

 

In the Multiplay server I was getting 80FPS on the ground in Syria on the DDCS Server with about 30 people in it.

 

So it seems there was a little boost going with the 3070 over the 1080Ti. could I have lived with the 1080Ti a bit longer more then likely as it was really only -10-15FPS difference.

 

here are the 2 screenshots during the mission. I am going to try and do the trackfile and see what it gets then as I just reran the mission from scratch so there could be some more variables..

well been a while since I had the GPU. I did try and bump up the Graphics ingame and the res is still @60% maybe even 50% but I was getting CPU bound in the DCS FPS Counter now.

 

I thought a 10700K Intel CPU @ 4.8ghz would be good for a 3070, is this CPU not good enough now? OH and what is this theoretical FPS, is that what it would get with better gear or similar?

 

EDIT: I am currently running at 30% and I mainly am able to keep 90FPS. but last night I tried OC my CPU to 5.1ghz and it was not stable and the time it did stay stable the temps where hitting 105 and 107c for a split second or two in thwe intel burn test maximum test.. I just went back to 4.8ghz and it seems fine temp wise. Towards the end on our Private MP server the FPS were dropping to70-75FPS and it stuttered a bit not sure but my temps were good and not sure but somone else in the group reported stuttering and low FPS it might be the host and some bandwidth issues..

Currently I am not in the market for new gear as I am broke for the foreseable future!! So I am hoping the MT stuff gets better as time goes on.. whatever happened to Vulkan?
