Hi guys.

I think my 6900 XT Powercolor Red Devil is underperforming or I am going nuts.

I think that in games I play should get much higher FPS  (currently Metro Exodus Last light).

I game at 1440p.

It is paired with 13700K.

Tell me what tests you want me to run to check if the results is normal,I mean okay as expected for 6900 XT?

Maybe even I am overthinking.

 

Please do not take offence for my apparent confusion or rudeness,it's not intent me to be like that,it's just my BPD,be nice to me,and I'll return twice better,be rude and usually I get easly pissed of...I'll try to help anyone here,as long as it's something I dealt with,and even if you think I'm rude or not polite,forgive me,  it's not me it's my BPD.

Thanks for understanding.

Metro Exodus or Metro Last light?

If its Metro Exodus, check that Raytracing is not enabled if you are playing the enhanced edition.

From what I see on the leaderboards at 1080p EXTREME with a 6900 XT, your score is average and expected.

Oh okay.

Probably then I wae expecting much higher FPS in Metro Last Light Redux.

It can drop as low as 65 fps in some open world scenes,which got me concerned for a 6900 XT.I did cranked all the details to max, though.

What is your average framerate?

Dont do that the game has a bunch of terrible fluff ultra settings that destroy performance no matter what. Could be you're basically running it at 8k internal res due to the amount of aa you are using :p.

 

Just do high or very high and dont do 8xmsaa like tge game wants to. 2x is heaps. Between the very high and max preset you can up to quadruple fps 😛

These are game settings.I suppose I cranked settings too much?

Between 65 and 80, depends on scene.

4x SSAA? 😄

Well, no wonder you're getting bad performance.

Lol.Now I see what I did, so basically it is like I am playing on 4x bigger rez then native?

In each game I just set to highest possible settings number under video/display settings.

correct, you're running the game at 5120x2880, so significantly higher than 4K render res.

 

I bet it looks really clean though!

No that would be 2x ssaa. Dudes running at 4x so 10240 * 5760 which is SIGNIFICANTLY over 8k 😛

Yes.

 

Well no wonder you think it under performs when you are most likely running almost every game at WAY above native res :p.

 

General rule of thumb play on high settings and skip max. Gives heaps of performance for normally no or extremely light visual impact.

 

Max settings are usually just higher numbers for the sake of higher numbers where it DESTROYS performance for no visual gain.

AFAIK, "4X SSAA" usually means that each pixel is represented by four rendered pixels downsampled to one pixel. That means each pixel becomes a 2x2 grid of pixels, resulting in a doubling of pixel count on each axis, not a quadrupling.

 

For example, in Nvidia's driver-level SSAA (aka DSR), selecting "4X" doubles the pixel count of each axis. So selecting "4X" with a 1920x1080 output resolution gives you 3840x2160, not 7680x4320.
