DX12 vs Performance Mode Fortnite AMD *2024*

[@Decki777]

it's much better to pair fastest CPU and med rang GPU rather than pair fastest GPU with a med range CPU because CPU bottleneck will cause micro stutters and fps dips

[@RockyGigaChad]

I have i7 6700k and rtx2060 and i have a lot of stutters and fps drops like even 100fps drop , its because of my cpu cannot perform as well as the gpu or its just my old weak 4 core cpu?

just something to help for the next vid like this is that the calculators are so wrong in every single way it says i have a 50% bottleneck with a 7600x and 7800xt which they dont have a 50% they actually have a 0-1% bottleneck

[@fwoztyZA]

100% right,I did the calculation for my cpu and gpu about 4 months ago and it was a 5% bottleneck,and now today with same components it's 30%+,but it still is accurate in telling you which of your components are stronger👍🏻

[@orangeboy7836]

in the bottle neck calculator u can choose if its cpu intensive task or gpu intensive task u should select it depending on the game or else it wont be calculated correctly

[@fwoztyZA]

True,but calculate it in the general tasks category so that it tells you whether your gpu is your strong component or your cpu is,Hope this helped👍🏻

[@nathannichols6707]

Interesting I wonder what would be better for me I have r9 5900x and an rtx 3080 and I’ve been looking into this bc performance mode feels hitchy sometimes

[@fwoztyZA]

Id definitely say performance mode,You have a very good cpu,im not sure why perf mode feels hitchy for you tho

[@PizzaUndervolt]

this is consistent with my findings dx12 was smoother while performance mode was stuttering and causing me to lose games

[@ryanmcmahon-c4t]

especially if you have both an amd cpu and gpu combo. performance mode doesnt allow full utilization of both resources, while DX12 uses up to 100% utilization. no clue why that works

[@fwoztyZA]

Yes,DX12 is usually smoother than performance mode when both cpu and gpu are AMD

[@ryanmcmahon-c4t]

@@fwoztyZA i did some more research and its because performance mode ~and~ dx11 (because performance mode is based on dx11 api) both lock your cpu to use only some of its resources for processing and disables multi threaded processing on amd cards. definitely switch to dx12 and if you have problems on the current amd driver 24.10.1 use ddu and use 24.8.1 until a new driver update rolls out that fixes it

[@endostatic7687]

everything is good so far until the very last part. this bottle neck site is so misleading, and bottle necking is a very relative term that's often misused. You have different degrees and kinds of bottle necks in different scenarios, hence the video. Gaming at a higher resolution results in a GPU bottle neck while gaming at a lower resolution results in a CPU bottle neck. Whatever thing that is strained more aka has more usage is often the cause of the bottle necking. The same way that resolution strains the GPU, different graphics APIs (dx11, dx12, vulkan, etc.) put different strains on different parts of the system due to the way they operate and render stuff with dx12 being more gpu intensive while dx11 being cpu intensive.

[@isas213]

Ryzen 5 7500F and RX 7700XT --> DX12 works MUCH better for me. A bit less max FPS but so much less (actually no) FPS Drops

because AMD cards are more optimised for DX12 instead of DX11 (and as you know or you dont: performance mode is DX11 on tweaks so on AMD it runs worse)

[@juice7661]

That's not necessarily how it works. In reality, nobody should be on performance mode. People with weak and strong cpus should use DX12. The only reason you would want to use performance mode is if you have a potato gpu. performance mode is so easy to run gpu-wise that you wouldnt be bottlenecked by a GTX 1070 if you were to pair it with a 14900ks. Aside from that, DX12 is like I said, the way to go all around. It will literally use every single core you throw at it. Even a 14900k, DX12 will use every single one of its 8 p-cores and its 16 e-cores. Performance mode basically uses 4 cores/ 8 threads. its based on ancient DX11...
