There isn't anything "wrong" with the cpu. This entirely is a problem that lies within the games coding itself. Of course its partially going to rely around the fact they use an outdated engine, aswell as no DX12 to better RAM Performance. But mostly, it matters whether the game is coded sequentially or concurrently. Sequentially built coding flies better on something with good single thread performance. Clearly not a CPU Bottleneck as it isn't being fully utilized, and clearly isn't even having trouble sending packet data to the graphics card. Clearly its just a very poorly optimized game.

Also at 4K there wasn't a huge difference in image quality between the two as far as I could tell, anyway.

Quick question; did you manually allow the game to use more VRAM? The ultra preset is capped at 1000MB VRAM (iirc) in the config file. If you open it manually in notepad, you'll find a line named "TextureMemoryBudget", where you can manually set more allowed VRAM for the game. I run this game with a GTX 980, all settings maxed and UberSampling on and still hit anywhere between 70-120 FPS depending on the area.

This game needs a "Remastered" Edition that's got a few extra upgrades to eye candy visuals, support for the Vulkan API, Improved Sound Engine to bring atmospheric sound to people with a Stereo Headset/Stereo Studio Monitors (Headset) & maybe a few upgrades to some of the animations. I reckon that with a newer API like Vulkan, Uber-Sampling would not have as large of a performance impact hopefully a few % increase in performance. But more so that other visual settings could utilise hardware more efficiently and produce better results with less available resources.

Uber sampling is basically a "future proof". It was meant for people in the future to still have a great looking game. Same thing with the ultra shadow preset in KCD.

Digital Foundry released a video today about the same thing. You guys should check it out. Now on to the subject at hand: I just ran The Witcher 2 with everything on (except Motion Blur) and Ubersampling enabled at 1080p. I am getting between 62 and 75 FPS depending on the area I'm in and what's happening on screen with an old configuration: i7 4790k, 16 GB of DDR 3 and a 1070Ti under Windows 7 64 bits. The GPU is fully utilized 98-100% and the CPU cores are at around 75%. I have no idea why you're having issues.

The story was far superior and the characters all had true motives. Geralt already knows all the characters in the Witcher 3, making it harder to bond with them.

I don't have my gaming rig at college but my Macbook Pro 2019 runs this in the 40s at max settings (besides supersampling, anti aliasing, and motion blur) with a cooling pad. Seems like it's CPU intensive. I turn it down because it doesn't reach 60 though.
@vesselinkrastev4 жыл бұрын
Hmm. Digital Foundry says that ubersampling is basically 4x supersampling. So if you are running at 1080p with it on it's actually running at 4K. But when you tried AMD's downampling option which should basically be the same thing it ran better. I wonder why that is. Perhaps, the ubersampling option also scales the resolution of some individual effects in addition to the rendering resolution?

So glad you made this video m8. I recently finished Witcher 1 EE and was pretty hyped to play Witcher 2 EE and there I was maxing all the possible setting on. On the first scene I recived 10-30FPS hahaha just to let u know I have RX 5700 so the directx 12 vs directx 9 kills my pc xD hopefully Witcher 3 will be a plesent experience xD In my case I still have my old fella HD7750 :D

I'm the same! The series are tempting me to jump right back into the game series, but I don't want to play 3 again, even though it was one of the best gaming experiences I've had. Its just that I've put nearly 300 hours into it, did everything I could do, and I don't want to start over!

:sigh: Both you and Digital Foundry just did a video on Witcher 2 and on both video it's failed to mention that Adrenalin 2020 drivers completely destroy performance on AMD RDNA GPUs at the moment.
@Badtaste214 жыл бұрын
You can see the Vega 64 (while UberSampling was enabled) isn't at 100%, though. This means there has to be another limit, not just GPU performance, very likely caused by a lack of optimization (of UberSampling itself). When you showed us the footage with VSR enabled, the GPU was at 100%. What this basically means is UberSampling can't even make use of the GPU's performance, which in return obviously leads to poor results.

My build when I bought Witcher 2 was an i5 2500k with an HD 6450 , Upgraded to a 7770 HD and still couldn't run it. I probably had UberSampling on but since I didn't have much faith in my system I ended up going back to League Of Legends and WC3. I put $800 into that i5 2500k build and now a days that can build you a 1080p killer as well as 1440p gaming but people want to complain about the prices of enthusiast gpus..
