Hi all,
I would like to know what hardware do you have and which average (max) fps you have within 2.5 / had within 2.4.
There are often questions like "do I have to upgrade my 760 GTX for playing SC?" or "is there any fps advantage by upgrading to GTX1080" or "can I use my laptop for SC" or "is the 8350 too slow for SC" et patati et patata.
Perhaps it will be possible, by collecting data, consolidate and finally analyze it to receive an answer on those questions.
It would be helpful if we could stick to the following structure
Kind of PC: laptop/desktop*
CPU (overclocked)
GPU (RAM, OC'd)
RAM (number of modules)
SC installed on: HDD/SSD (detail)
fps miniPU 2.4: min/average/max (resolution, detail level)
fps miniPU 2.5: min/average/max (resolution, detail level)
Comment (optional)
*..."laptop" as synonym for any mobile device, "desktop" as synonym for any stationary device
fps can be read out i.e. by using fraps: http://www.fraps.com/
Well then, I'll do the first step ;)
Kind of PC: Desktop
CPU: AMD 8350 8x4GHz (overclocked: no)
GPU: Inno3D GeForce GTX 960 iChill X3 Air Boss Ultra, 2048 MB GDDR
RAM: 2 x 8GB 1333 RAM
SC installed on: Samsung SSD 850 Evo 250GB, SATA
fps miniPU 2.4: 1/10-15/30 (1920x1050, medium)
fps miniPU 2.5: 10*/20-25/40 (1920x1050, high)
Comment (optional)
*...except for framedrops down to 1, which happen nevertheless way less often than in 2.4
