99% GPU Beta 5

[danijocker90]

The previous updates i was playing with a GPU usage of ~50% now its always 98-99%


EDIT:

Forcing 60 FPS --> Menu Windows 40-50% Gpu // Scenarios Close-Medium Zoom (not max zoom in but more like panzer corps zoom 1024x768) 90-99% // Attack Animations ~70%
Forcing 30 FPS --> Menu Windows 30-40% Gpu // Scenarios ~60% // Attack Animations ~40%

So...forcing 30 FPS seems a good conf. right now

PS: Is there a list of hotkeys? Because not all of the Panzer Corps hotkeys seems to be the same here.

can't say the same to be honest, with amd card and drivers used,very little GPU use and is no worse than last version, same as cpu/ memory etc, with less than 25% of total pc used at max on largest map and been checked with amd tools running also with windows 8.1 64bit, so would class it as a medium to entry level game for all with a low to medium level of hardware use, sorry maybe a mix of hardware and other programs you are running maybe? as your hardware seems fine and more than good enough to be running the game at any level of detail so can say or ask you to turn down or alter anything either, your report more than meets the minimum requirements of the game by a long way...

Thats true.
I will do a clean install and check all again, without running extra software and see if works.

[zakblood]

see if there's any updates for your drivers, including beta one to try, i'm using beta ones now and tbh work better and quicker than RC ones did

[danijocker90]

Clean Install, Nothing running but the game, System Updated...99% GPU

[zakblood]

what vga drivers used?

version etc?

[fsx]

now, the fps (Frames per second) are not limited. The program uses all available resources (GPU).

[danijocker90]

really? mmm then i will load the fps limit conf. next time

[zakblood]

as use is determined by mostly what you have start off with and how it's programmed, and only a smaller % by drivers used, it may be better on some hardware configuration than others, i have tested it on 4 different pc set up, but with one common thing between them all, all intel cpu, and all amd graphics so can't comment on anything other than them, my finding are,

dual core, core duo E6850@ 3GHz with 6gb win 7 pro 64bit

dual core Core 2 Duo E8400 Wolfdale 3.0GHz 3gb of ram xpsp3 pro 32bit

i7 2700k cpu with 16gb of ram win8.1 64bit pro plus win 10 on dual boot

i7 3960X cpu with 32gb of ram win 8.1 64bit pro (4gb vga)

XP/WIN7/WIN8.1 and now win 10 BETA TESTER

there is little real difference between in game use to notice with the game at all, 2 have 2gb cards 1 has 3gb and 1 has 4gb....

2gb had 85% gpu max, with 3gb card and 4gb ones even less, and that was max use not all the time use, no spikes either, it spiked and went to 85% stayed there for a while then went down, never about in half an hour in took to finish the last mpa, and yes i've done it 3 or 4 times now.....

picked largest map and most amount of units in game and deployed and then move and ended turn, took this on enemies turn
