And with the amount of emojis he uses at times I often wonder if it's a grown up were in discussion with.
And fwiw,my PC cost nowhere near as much as what you've quoted kksnowbear. In fact the most expensive part in there is my GPU at £400. My CPU was £200(pre-owned) monitor was £230 and apart from flying over airfields (using the airfield mod) I get a near constant 60fps when I disable said mod I get my 60
It's very interesting that you can "get (your) 60" from a machine that costs so little by comparison, but PR reports he only 'finally' got that level of performance after 10 years running OFF P3, WOFF, and WOFF UE, by getting a machine that cost several times as much.
A fascinating disparity, and it sort of seems to prove the point that an extreme top-of-the-line PC (shouldn't be) necessary to get that performance. Either that, or someone's way off on their assessment.
1st of all your assuming that we are using the exact same settings. It may be that PR uses higher resolutions? Maybe he has more mods than me? His workshop settings may be higher? Maybe he has more background tasks working than mine,does he use Windows 10 where has I use Win 7. We've both reported our findings which I can tell you are a honest assessment from my part regarding this sim. I have absolutely no reason to not believe PR in any way shape or form regarding his findings either.
It looks like PR is using a 4K monitor so of course a high resolution like that requires a beefier system to get higher FPS. So I'm correct kksnowbear a "cheaper" system running at a lower resolution would indeed produce 60fps. I'd of thought with your 35 years experience you'd have known that though
So, 10 years ago, he had a 4k monitor? He did say that he hadn't been able to get 60FPS until now, after 10 years. He covered everything from OFF P3 to WOFF UE. Here it is again:
With the 9900K CPU it is the first time in over 10 years playing OFF3 / WOFF / WOFF UE that I never drop below 60 FPS at any time or any place...
Finally.
And with all his experience and his long time goal of getting 60 frames as he says...well, you'd certainly think he tried different settings.
According to him, he wasn't getting 60FPS steady for all this time, never mind what monitor, settings, system or anything else. It was his new setup alone that has realized the goal.
