      Yeah, yeah (ooo)
      Uh, hey hey
      All right, yeah
      What a man, what a man, what a man,
      What a mighty good man
      Gotta say it again now
      What a man, what a man, what a man,
      What a mighty good man
      He's a mighty mighty good man
      What a man, what a man, what a man,
      What a mighty good man
      Yes he is
      What a man, what a man, what a man,
      What a mighty good man
      I want to take a minute or two, and give much respect due
      To the man that's made a difference in my world
      And although most men are ho's, he flows on the down low
      'Cause I never heard about him with another girl
      But I don't sweat it because it's just pathetic
      To let it get me involved in that he said she said crowd
      I know that ain't nobody perfect
      I give props to those who deserve it
      And believe me y'all, he's worth it
      So here's to the future 'cause we got through the past
      I finally found someone that can make me laugh
      You so crazy, I think I want to have your baby
      What a man, what a man, what a man,
      What a mighty good man
      Yes he is
      What a man, what a man, what a man,
      What a mighty good man
      He's a mighty mighty good man
      What a man, what a man, what a man,
      What a mighty good man
      Gotta say it again now
      What a man, what a man, what a man,
      What a mighty good man
      My man is smooth like Barry, and his voice got bass
      A body like Arnold with a Denzel face
      He's smart like a doctor with a real good rep
      And when he comes home he's relaxed with Pep
      He always got a gift for me every time I see him
      A lot of snot-nosed ex-flames couldn't be him
      He never ran a corny line once to me yet
      So I give him stuff that he'll never forget
      He keeps me on Cloud Nine just like the Temps
      He's not a fake wannabe tryin' to be a pimp
      He dresses like a dapper don, but even in jeans
      He's a God sent original, the man of my dreams
      Yes, my man says he loves me, never says he loves me not
      Tryin' to rush me good and touch me in the right spot
      See other guys that I've had, they tried to play all that mac shit
      But every time they tried I said, "That's not it"
      But not this man, he's got the right potion
      Baby, rub it down and make it smooth like lotion
      Yeah, the ritual highway to heaven
      From seven to seven he's got me open like Seven Eleven
      And yes, it's me that he's always choosin'
      With him I'm never losin', and he knows that my name is not Susan
      He always has heavy conversation for the mind
      Which means a lot to me 'cause good men are hard to find
      What a man, what a man, what a man,
      What a mighty good man
      He's a mighty mighty good man
      What a man, what a man, what a man,
      What a mighty good man
      Say it again y'all
      What a man, what a man, what a man,
      What a mighty good man
      What a man, what a man, what a man,
      What a mighty good man
      I said what a mighty good man
      He's a mighty mighty good man
      My man gives real loving that's why I call him Killer
      He's not a wham-bam-thank-you-ma'am, he's a thriller
      He takes his time and does everything right
      Knocks me out with one shot for the rest of the night
      He's a real smooth brother, never in a rush
      And he gives me goose pimples with every single touch
      Spends quality time with his kids when he can
      Secure in his manhood 'cause he's a real man
      A lover and a fighter and he'll knock a nucca out
      Don't take him for a sucker 'cause that's what he's about
      Every time I need him, he always got my back
      Never disrespectful 'cause his mama taught him that
      I got a good man
      What a man, what a man, what a man,
      What a mighty good man
      A mighty mighty good man
      What a man, what a man, what a man,
      What a mighty good man
      Yes he is
      What a man, what a man, what a man,
      What a mighty good man
      What a mighty good man
      What a man, what a man, what a man,
      What a mighty good man
      He's a mighty mighty good man
      What a mighty mighty good man

    The High Shadows introduce Dynamic Shadows at Night or in Caves when you use Torches and other kind of light sources at Night. So the impact is bigger than it is shown here. Like 10%+ at Night for High and above settings.

Having all those ubiquitous filter settings for PC gaming is why we love PC gaming, however year on year they become more demanding for average setups. Not everyone can afford the top end GPU, CPU, memory and of course the monitor so a big thank you !! for this settings tutorial at least now we have some sort of starting point to help us all achieve good visuals even on a mid hardware system. Of course the sheer nature of the game and stunning vistas demands a good system but at least with some adjustment to settings then a good result can be achieved. Many thanks.

    @Nailsinmytummy 5 років тому +19

    haven't played this, but settings like clutter, foliage and shadows often put heavier load on your cpu due to the numerous draw calls. So you might want to look at that if your CPU is on the weaker side, which is clearly not an issue here, hence why they showed no impact on performance.

  • @RedArmsTOR
    @RedArmsTOR 5 років тому +502

    You aren't lying, but unintentionally misrepresenting enviromental details. This setting mostly influences CPU and not GPU performance. You are, probably, running an overclocked 8700k and do not see any kind of performance differences here. True, but only because your CPU is able to keep up on all presets. Unaware watchers, with weaker CPUs, will max out this setting and cripple their performance because of this. It was the same situation with AC:Origins. Environmental Details killed CPU performance there too, but people kept on using it. GPU power isn't everything.
    Watch Dogs 2 had a similar setting btw. It was called "extra Details" (or so) and also crippled CPU performance. But it was marked as "for future, powerful CPUs" . So most people ignored it.
    edit:
    Same situation with clutter.
    If you want to make another interesting and helpful video: Test the extra details setting in Watch Dog 2 and demonstrate how graphic settings can influence CPU load, while nearly not touching GPU load.
    Then compare your results with enviromental details and glutter in ACOrigins and ACOdyssey.
    Or don't. I'm not the YT, gaming performance police.

      Thank you for this. I always find it ridiculous how these optimization guides, GPU benchmarks etc are done with the highest end i7 processor with 32GBs of RAM and God knows what else. I realize the idea is to remove as much external bottlenecking and focus exclusively on the GPU, but that only matters if you're writing an unbiased scientific thesis on the subject or something. Fact is, the vast majority of people who watch these kinds of videos are tinkerers with limited budgets, looking to get the most out of their hardware. They're more likely to be sporting an i5/R5, 8GB RAM, RX580/GTX1060 and similar. The tests should reflect that.

    SLI 1080's and an i7 6700k. Spent a fortune on this PC 3 years ago, already starting to struggle on new releases, but I do insist on playing at 1440p also and I hate dropping below 60 FPS. I tried all the options here and the only one that improved framerates significantly was turning clouds to lowest. There was no change in playing with the other settings, I think I'm bottlenecked by my CPU. I don't overclock either so it's capped at 4.0Ghz. Feels badgetting between 30-50 FPS, even if I lower resolution to 1080p or lower other settings nothing really changes. I wonder why Battlefield 5 runs at a steady 100+ on ultra max everything for me, when you consider the multiplayer, destructible environments, etc. Come on Ubisoft, work harder on optimisation!

      Alex Zinkevych not sure if you fixed the issue but this is what I did to fix the issue. Go into your display options in AC Odyssey and change the refresh rate to your monitors native rate. The highest I can go is 75hz not sure if it’s because my monitor is 75hz or if the game only supports up to 75hz. I’d also uncap your FPS in game if you have it capped. If you want it capped then sync it with your refresh rate. For example my monitor is 75hz and I capped the FPS to 75fps in game.
