DirectX12 games (like Forza Horiozon 4 and Call of Duty Modern Warfare - Warzone ) Were tested with periodic errors and crashes and therefore Not recommended to use dxcpl tool to bypass DirectX12 requirements, or use of tinkered self modified drivers and bios, which was done in the process.
Express your opinion, and share your comments.
Peace and love

I don't generally ask but.. Some of these Graphics Cards are rather Hard to find and getting quite expensive for a while now. Recording these videos and just posting them makes it a big $ and time investment from our side.
So ANY type of Contribution: A Like, A Subscribe, A Comment or just plain good old small SUPER THANKS button (Donation) would mean the World to us.

How does Red Dead Redemption 2 run? My HD6950 graphics card cannot even enter the game

[@ZGI]

Dxvk or dxcpl. It crashes along the way though. And requires ALOT of trial and error to configure.

[@bigface333]

@@ZGI Thanks for your answer. Is there any tutorial post or video?

[@infouXD]

You had such a problem D3D_FEATURE_LEVEL_12_0, if yes then help

[@qviz477]

thx

[@01RIE01]

Thank you very much for sooooo many benchmarks! That must have taken a lot of work and time! Could you add timestamps in the video description too next time please?

Here is a list of the FPS tips we can think of:
Major factors to be considered
1st) "Dual channel memory Fast Frequency and Low Latency " - IGPU for example, are heavily dependent of RAM, f it's Single Channel (single slot of ram) you roughly should loose around 30-40% of the GPU's performance.
It's just how it works unfortunately. Even having 4+4 or 8+4 or any dual stick FAST Ram will lead to more performance then single stick of RAM. Hopefully you have 8+8.^
2nd) Thermal throttling:
Having a thin laptop and clogged with dust can result in a lot of issues (or just closed wents), reducing the performance further by alot. So primary objective you gotta find a way to keep your laptop cool.
Best way to do it is by changing the existing thermal paste on your CPU and GPU (if present) with a quality one like Kryonaut or Arctic's MX-4 (often offers best results in improving performance/ temps). maybe adding thermal pads or copper shims on the VRAM or similar. It will gain you free FPS and overall system responsiveness in all situations
But that can be difficult sometimes.
If it's new laptop/or PC some of the following suggestions are not required.
- 1) you can open it and clean it thoroughly (follow some guide for your particular laptop on youtube) and change the termal paste with a quality one (MX4, CM master gel, Kryonaut or similar and don't poor too much of it)
- 2) easy fix would be raising your laptop so it can breath air
- 3) also second easy fix, blow some air with a straw or directly put your mouth to the air vents (i know it sounds weird but it should clear the copper passive cooler.
System optimizations:
3) On Windows 10
Easy fix: Download WPD and disable everything from microsoft bloatware
One should try and keep the system out of bloathware and erradicate/ remove unnecessary apps running in background, so they won't engage the processor.
If that doesn't work, system format/reset should be done. We usually do once in 5-6months-1year. It's highly recommended & everything above that is just slowing the system No Matter How Good you take care of it.
4) Drivers
As for drivers. They are mostly the same unless it got corruptes down the road by a miracle. In that case or in any case a driver should be installed this way
Any driver would just work fine on each GPU as long is one of the WHQL drivers downloaded from manufacturers website, no matter which year or date (They just add support and optimizations for newest titles)
a) What can be done is to install DDU (Display driver uninstaller).. > boot to safe mode, uninstall ALL possible graphics card drivers (including amd or intel base ones) > Reboot to normal windows and install the latest ones downloaded from Nvidia /AMD website.
b) 2) If this doesn't work, Check the temperatures.
5) ReBar (Resizable Bar mod for CPU's after 2011)
If you have a CPU that's later then 2011 like i5 3470 you can try the following
Resizable BAR (Base Address Register) is a feature that allows the CPU to access the entire GPU memory at once, potentially improving gaming performance by reducing input/output bottlenecks. While Resizable BAR was initially introduced with newer hardware configurations, there are some methods to enable it on older machines, though success may vary depending on compatibility.
Check Compatibility: Verify if your GPU, motherboard, and CPU support Resizable BAR.
Update BIOS/UEFI: Ensure your motherboard's firmware is up to date to potentially add support.
Update GPU Drivers: Install the latest GPU drivers, which may include Resizable BAR support.
Enable Resizable BAR: Access BIOS/UEFI settings to enable Resizable BAR if supported.
Test Performance: Evaluate gaming performance after enabling Resizable BAR.
Adjust Settings: Fine-tune game and GPU settings for optimal performance.
Keep in mind that success with Resizable BAR on older machines depends on hardware compatibility and manufacturer support.
6) Get To Know about Undervolting or Overclocking
It is the best thing about these new processors/laptops. It might be abit complicated, but search on google on your particular CPU for how far you can go.. In our case it was around -0.100mv and was fine on our silicon lottery result.
It will raise performance in general , cool the laptop and lessen the battery consumption.
7)Use "High Contrast Mode" on windows it helps alot in Vram(GPU Ram) consumption.
Forget "Gaming mode" on Win OS that thing is a pure gimmick.
8) * IMPORTANT For OLDER Graphics cards that are DirectX9, DirectX10, DirectX11 complaint, check the:
"DXVK" by doitsujin mod for newer games that don't support older GPU's. It usually results in bad performance or issues but some games Might Run without issues, or check DXCPL emulator tool on your own responsibility.

Que temperatura baixa é essa como conseguiu ?

[@omarmohammd1572]

Can you speak english

[@alangabirurei]

se a dele for uma dual fan e normal .tenho uma saphire 2 fans e fica nessa temp em full load , so estou estranhando q ele ta conseguindo abrir jogo q eu nao consigo kkkkkk
