Im using triple monitors 7680X1080 resolution with most of my settings to high . I have an MSI 3090 card with 8700k overclocked to 4.8. The kind of antialiasing i push it with my settings induces small stutters and makes the experience not smooth even when the fps hangs between 24-28. Its sometimes “mainthread” limitation and sometimes GPU specially on airports. I do not want to compromise on visual settings.
QUESTION
Will the new buy 11900K overclocked to 5.1 all cores and 1 core to 5.3 alongwith 3090 plugged into a PCI 4 slot benefit my overall experience and make the game play smoother ?
In an ideal setup yes, it can probably reach 5.1GHZ in all cores without any major problems. Goes without saying it depends a lot on your PSU, motherboard, thermal solution and mainly on the silicon lottery.
Now having it with 5.1GHZ and one core @ 5.3GHZ is another story. It will probably require a good amount of testing and fine tuning. My bet is that you won’t need to worry too much about reaching high overclocks like 5.3GHZ because this resolution will have your system GPU limited and so anything past 5.1GHZ will only contribute to marginal increase in performance at the cost of high temperature and stability.
Have to ask if you are straying away from TAA antialiassing or trying to combine FSAA?
I’m also 5760x1080 but on a wee RTX 3060, on high (no bloom,lens correction,shadows 1024/512 cause 1536 seems weird) I’m shocked all cores @5.3 going right now on 1.492v air/Noctua NH-D15 chromax.black
I’ve given up on ultra and am trying to pretty much lock 30fps but as I try to fly jets I find even that low bar is bonking me on the forehead.
I’m using TAA , infact have jacked up the resolution slider at 130. What is probably oversampling in game . This gives my my desired visuals , neat and clean .
I upgraded from 8700k to 11900k two months ago and performance has increased, but not massively. I can‘t give you any numbers as I never check on frames but I now run the sim in VR with render scale set to 100 and have (I think) similar results like before at 80. I have a rtx3080.
