>Indeed patch 8.1, Tides of Vengeance, has substantially improved performance for those gaming at 1080p, particularly on Ryzen processors. AMD reports that you can see anywhere up to a 35% improvement in frame rates at 1080p at lvl10 image quality settings, when using DX12 in the latest patch.

>Getting 180 fps instead of 165 fps in GTAV (2013) is all that matters.
Isn't there like issues with the game engine once you go above 160 FPS as discovered by Wendell? I'm glad the piece of garbage PC port is getting out of tests suites now being the outdated piece of crap it is and yes, it was a shit port in hindsight but being passable as a PC port wasn't a high bar back when it was released. The thing that really bothered me was all the idiots praised it way too much for something it wasn't.

Why the fuck does this matter when everyone plays cata, lich king and tbc? I didn't even know blizzard still has servers up.
Angel Moore
shame only BC and 1.12 were good, on the upside, the emulators for them have gotten pretty top tier and the scripting's pretty simple
Ayden Powell
I agree, but I really like how cata gave more race/class combos. Like, why weren't undead allowed to be hunters when there were skeleton archers in Warcraft and the leader of forsaken is basically a ranger? Race/class restrictions (other than obvious, like undead not being paladins) never made sense to me.
Oliver Morris
I sincerely hope you're only pretending
Lucas Butler
I'm being hyperbolic since Intel's gaymen gains are like when you're over 120 fps... and even then it's for older games that look like N64 ports.
It won't really matter with Classic, since the environments will be hugely less demanding. Even in the current game in the old world, framerates are much higher than in the new areas, because there's not so much fucking shit scattered everywhere. With vanilla there'll be even less.
I'm sure I'm on /v/, but the address bar keeps saying Jow Forums. What could be causing this?

You're right. What about raids though? Since those are 40 man.
Owen Barnes
I'm building a PC to play Classic. Do you think a rx 580 and a R5 2600 will be enough for 1440p?
David Barnes
The VII is a legitimate value with this.

Too bad DX12 is nearly unusable for me on my R9 380. Even disregarding lower fps i get a feeling that it actually runs slower not in a sense of lower fps, but like playing on not full speed emulator where game is actually become slower.
You're damn right baby, running Duke on Poozen is an insult to the King

>58.2 FPS We did it bros, we reached just under 60 FPS in a 15 year old game.

>Significantly changed >It's basically one year old lmfao you actually think the skeleton crew at blizzard that is stuck maintaining that dying game actually rewrites lots of stuff every expansion? It ran on 1 core for over a decade of multicore CPUs being available and it still looks a decade old in graphics quality today.
If you actually think WoW is anything even close to a modern game tech wise you're delusional, it's even more old and busted than Bethesda's shit.
