that is if you need 60fpsIt's bad even on Nvidia cards. Pretty much need a Titan X to enable it on ultra.
lawl with the gpu suggested by INVIDIA you are doing only 30 fps? 0.othat is if you need 60fps
i can play with everything on ultra and hairworks on @30fps with my gtx970
With hairworks, yes, it very much is. Look at it like this: most games render hair as static strands. Hairworks renders each strand of hair as its own object with its own physics applied to it. That's hundreds, maybe thousands of extra objects being rendered in any given scene.is that possible?
one option turn-on and this is the result?
but i have read that this is not optimized even on INVIDIA GPU...With hairworks, yes, it very much is. Look at it like this: most games render hair as static strands.

Basically, that's a f*ton of math being pumped through your GPU.
I was getting about the same with the same card. Too low for me. Hairworks was kind of cool but hair was still pretty floaty and unrealistic like it was in Tomb Raider. I didn't realize the griffin head was going to be a sick trophy that I could carry around on my horse all the time though so that did tempt me to enable it. Hair on it and other monsters makes we want to go up and pet it, its too soft looking. Hair, especially on humans, looks great (better?) with it disabled though. On monsters it looks crusty and spikey like an animal but now I am just justifying my 15 extra fps.that is if you need 60fps

It's not a matter of optimization, it's a matter of basically doubling your GPU's workload with one click. Unless you have a Titan X (or whatever the AMD equivalent is), I recommend turning it off.but i have read that this is not optimized even on INVIDIA GPU...
is that possible?
yep, same for project cars -> no way to play @60fps with everything on max.lawl with the gpu suggested by INVIDIA you are doing only 30 fps? 0.o
I assume he was saying that he has capped it at 30FPSlawl with the gpu suggested by INVIDIA you are doing only 30 fps? 0.o
yep, thats exactly what i did! better constant 30fps then the framerate jumping aroundI assume he was saying that he has capped it at 30FPS
I have done the same and I run a 970 - I would prefer to have a smooth experience than a constant fluctuating one.
Unlocked I average about 45fps with everything ultra and hairworks on. Rather have a solid rate than constant fluctuating one though.
