I found myself looking at the averages, too. I think he forgot to reset the average on some of them. Just watch the live fps count to see how they compare. CoD really did see some huge gains.. at least for the 6600. I have a 6700XT so I'll have to check if it is a VRAM thing or if it really just improved performance across all AMD cards that well.
i dont know what amd did , but the performance in dying light 2 with RT (GIRT and RT shadows) the game is playable on a 6950xt the average is like 50 fps
Hello everyone. I have a problem. I am the owner of the RX 7900XT video card. After updating the drivers to new ones (I am still using version 23.5.2), Windows does not start on my computer, just a black screen. I have dug through a lot of material on the Internet, but still have not found an answer, maybe someone has encountered such a problem? What could be the solution?
What the heck with ram usage i saw with 3060 comparison video while you are using 32 gb system ram; in case of rx 6600 ram usage was 23gb now with 16 gb system ram in this 6600 driver comparison video ram usage only 13gb😮😮
windows auto management. if ram usage reaches too close to max the computer would crash. so the 10gb you're not seeing are pushed into pagefile instead
It's kinda funny... they released the drivers to make STALKER 2 more compatible and run better, yet it gained nothing... But COD runs like 20 fps higher, now? I have a 6700XT and while CoD Black Ops 6 runs well, I've noticed that I hadn't been pulling the watts that I SHOULD see in a game that is running right. Like STALKER 2 is a well optimized game and it pushes me to 185 watts. BO 6 was only pushing me up to 165 watts. I always know I have room for improvement if I'm not at 180+ watts in a game. And I know what some of you are thinking... "STALKER 2 is well optimized?" It really is. It just requires a lot of hardware. With FSR 3 Quality + Frame Gen at 1440p all Epic settings/HDR On, I get around 85fps. Zero stutters or anything. The thing is, it pushes my 5900x to 40-50% at times. So, if you have a 6 core, you don't have enough cores/threads to run the game well. ALSO, it pushes my total system RAM usage up to 25GB, so if you're on a 16GB RAM system, it's gonna run bad. And lastly, it uses over 11GB VRAM, too. So, if you don't have a 12GB+ VRAM card, it's gonna make you use even MORE VRAM and yeah.... It's a demanding game, I'll give it that. But it looks great to me, I was surprised. It looks so much better than the YT vids I've seen of it. And it has one of the best implementations of FSR I've seen in any game. The vegetation doesn't get blurry using it. That said, TSR actually looks better than FSR in this game to me, so I've been swapping between them trying to figure out which one I prefer for sure. But, yeah, you can see this 5600G hits up to 80% at times. I know people may not believe me, but once you hit that 80-85% CPU usage in a game, it will RARELY ever go higher, even if it needs to. Also, this is one of those games that the higher the fps you get, the higher your CPU usage goes dramatically... like Cyberpunk 2077. I'm surprised STALKER 2 is running as decent as it is on this rig knowing what it pulls on my rig (35-50% on my 5900x/25GB RAM/11GB VRAM). You're practically running half the game off of virtual memory lol ;-) Luckily you have NVME drives. But also I run on Epic and I saw this was on High, so I'm not sure how much difference that makes in resource utilization.
@@mikecheeze4312 That's literally what I average with all epic @ 1440p. But with TSR @ Ultra Quality 75% resolution or FSR @ Quality WITH frame gen enabled on both. Are you running an upscaler and frame gen? I know the 6950XT is a powerful GPU, literally twice as powerful as my 6700XT. But this is kinda where I think a 6c/12t CPU may hold a game back, when you hit that 75-80% CPU usage, they just don't go higher in games. That's my experience. I mean, my 5900x is like having 15.5 cores. 12 real cores and 12 SMTs. Those 12 SMTs account for about the power of 3.5 extra real cores lol. But, anyways, there's something about games and not pushing the CPU to 100% a lot of the time even when it "could." But if you aren't running frame gen + upscaling, then that's awesome. If you are, then I think you're CPU bottlenecked. Just curious.
@@JustAGuy85 I run native, no upscaling or frame gen. I do use TAA because the shimmering was unbearable. As far as the CPU and bottlenecking I'm not sure, this game has the biggest CPU usage I've run into so far. I don't think it's bottlenecked because my GPU usage is constantly at 99% but I imagine it's probably pretty close.
@@mikecheeze4312 Okay, doesn't sound like you're getting much if any bottlenecking. I mean, the CPU is RIGHT THERE at the limit being at 75-80%, BUT you're getting amazing fps for no upscaling or frame gen. That's amazing performance. Plus the ipc of your 7600x is greater than the IPC of my 5900x by a pretty decent amount, right? What is it? 20%-25% better? Or even more? One good way to see if you're getting bottlenecking even at 99% GPU usage is if your GPU wattages are high like in games you know aren't being held back at all. Like my 6700XT should pull 180-185 watts if I'm not CPU bottlnecked, but sometimes I see 160-165 watts, despite seeing 99% GPU usage. Just something to look for. But it doesn't matter, it seems, as you're getting great framerates with no upscaling and no frame gen. If you feel like it, enable FSR Quality and Frame Gen and lemme know what happens to your CPU usage and wattages of the 6950XT. I'm curious if it pushes you to 90% plus CPU usage.
@@mikecheeze4312 Speaking of the 6950XT, man, I wanted to upgrade my 6700XT to a 6950XT for a long time. It's got double the ray tracing cores so that really helps with RT performance. STALKER 2 uses software raytracen via Lumen, so I'm not QUITE sure how that works with the GPU. But, anyways, it'd help a lot in Cyberpunk. You've got so much more rasterization power to start off with and then double the RT cores. Now I'm looking at a 7900GRE, maybe.. but I need to study more about the 7900GRE vs 7800XT/XTX. Because even then, from what I've seen, the 6950XT trades blows with the 7900GRE, but on the other hand, the 7900GRE will have "Gen 2" RT cores. Not sure how much it helps. The 7900GRE also has 80 RT cores. And, for example, the 6800XT has 72 RT cores (gen 1). 6700XT hss 40 gen 1 RT cores. 6600XT has 32 gen 1 RT coers. The 7800XT only has 60 RT cores, but again, they are gen 2. The 7800XTX has the same amount. 7900XT has 84 gen 2 RT cores and the 7900XTX has 96 gen 2 RT cores. But... that's a large price difference between a 7900XTX and a 7900GRE.

para rx 6600 nada mudou nada
1% fps are better than old version, thanks for the benchmark.
Indeed! Glad it helped you.
At least it fixed delta force
@@danbo4605 it didn't random framedrops from 140 to 30
This is useful, thank you
Its Safe and Stable to switch from 24.10.1 to the newets? Are Marvel rivals wil work o. 24.10.1?
Some of these games show massive gains its hard to believe.
I found myself looking at the averages, too. I think he forgot to reset the average on some of them. Just watch the live fps count to see how they compare. CoD really did see some huge gains.. at least for the 6600. I have a 6700XT so I'll have to check if it is a VRAM thing or if it really just improved performance across all AMD cards that well.
Is it worth changing drivers from 24.10.1 to new one? Same graphic card rx 6600
It wouldn't cost u anything just update
what game do you play? i play comp fps and the stuttering is reduced significantly.
Pubg, Gof Ragnarok, Star Wars Jedi Survivor
@@zygjux4886 gof ragnarok has lower fps i heard. so stay at 24.10.1 imo. not sure about the other game.
Having high fps on online games is the most important offline games fps matters not much because afmf 2 will be fix
i dont know what amd did , but the performance in dying light 2 with RT (GIRT and RT shadows) the game is playable on a 6950xt the average is like 50 fps
For me i had problems with the new driver in r6 there was a lot of stutters so i switched back
How to switched back?
Same
should i update in with my rx5700xt

Pues si supone una mejor en algunos juegos no mucha pero si la hay ademas la nieva versión usa mas ram
Obrigado pelo video.
wow, what happened to Ragnarök, a 25 fps drop? Was there a mistake on your side?
I tested it on 7900 gre and I have a 15-20 fps drop on this new driver for some reason.
I think this is not real...freeze benchmark. The other values are good.
yeah i saw bunch of comments saying gow ragnarok has reduced fps
Im getting same fps in bo2 with rx6700xt.
Nice man
Thanks❤
Thanks? No, thank YOU for being awesome and dropping by!
Call of duty got a massive upgrade
water looks better on old one...

Have a 7600x, 6950xt and 32gb ram. My cpu usage in stalker to is usually in the 60-80% and average around 75fps I believe. Ultra settings

well....1% low are better ...
