IL2 CloD: Benchmark your system!

There are plenty of ways you can benchmark your system, e.g. 3DMark, etc...

The intent is to get a feel for which systems are running CloD well, and which aren't - nothing more than that.

my system speccs:

Cabinet: Silverstone raven 02
Motherboard:Asus Crosshair Folmula IV
PSU: Cooler master Silent gold 1000w
CPU: Amd 1090t clocked to 6 x 3.8ghz /w Coolit vantage alc cpu cooler
Memory: Kingston Hyper x 2333mhz 1.65v 8gb (4x2gb) running at 2000mhz
Hdd1 c:\ OCZ Revodrive 120gb
Hdd2 d:\ 2x WD raptor 10000rpm 600gb in raid 0
GPU: Gainward 580GTX with accelerato xtreme plus cooler at stock clock settings
Dvd: sony optiarc &%¤%& something

Windows performance index:

cpu - 7.6
ram - 7.6
gpu - 7.9 on both
hdd`s 7.9

still the game is unplayable/unenjoyable even on low/medium/high/v.high settings

buuuut i guess a patch is right around the corner

I can see devs making use of this. Nicely done!

Specs submitted!

Done!
LOL at the epilepsy filter results: off 61 /on 0

... but one really needs to tell some details so that somebody else does know what to expect. Fact is, I have an uncommon system for gamers (Dell M6400 Notebook with qx9300 FX3700M 1Gb VRAM 4Gb RAM) where tuning is important and performance depends on scenario.

Other Intel qx9300 and NVIDIA FX 3700M owners: please take a look at the spreadsheet (again bumping the names so internet search engines take note) and share your tweaks ...

Idea of thread/benchmark site is ++

Thanks!

Good one, added my results. Bring on the next patch, should make a big difference.

Submitted, but my GPU memory is 1GB, not 128mb, as reported on the site.

Guys Im doing some thorough benchmarking, testing various settings and impacts of things like GPU and CPU speed on a few tracks.

One thing Id love to investigate is the impact of the amount vram, as it seems to be huge, as neither CPU nor GPU frequency scaling seems to impact my FPS much, if at all.

Does anyone have a Core2 quad (ideally ~3 GHz, but I can match slightly higher or lower speeds as well) and ATI 4870 1GB?

If so (and only if so), you could help me greatly by benching this track:
http://www.mediafire.com/?b7kioohkbadc9dd

Download it, save it where it belongs, in my case its in:

C:\Users\[my username]\Documents\1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover\records

Use these exact same settings:

resolution: 1360x768 (*) and/or 1920x1080
anti aliasing: 4x for 1360x768 and 0x for 1920x1080
Epilepsy: Off
Model: high
building: low
land:low
forest:low
effects:high
damage decals:medium
buildings:low
land shading: low
grass: off
shadows:off
roads:off

* Please note, to enable 1360x768 you can edit conf.ini. Use the correct one, so this one:
C:\Users\youruser\Documents\1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover

EpilepsyFilter=0

  DepthBits  =24

  DrawIfNotFocused=0

Feel free to change fullscreen and changescreenres to 0 if your monitor doesnt support this res.

Set your videocard to run at 750 MHz core and 900 MHz videomemory (I think 1 GB models by default clock a bit higher. If yours would be lower, thats fine, I can match that).

Run fraps. Play the track. The moment to cockpit shows up, press P for pauze. Wait a few seconds for the FPS to stabilize. Unpauze, and start fraps benchmark. THen send me the 3 CSV files fraps generates in c:\fraps\benchmarks.

Big thanks!

Hi,
I have a hd4870 1gb, a core i7 920 @stock and 6gb of ram.
but i fail to get your bench track running, i copied in the records folder but it won't show up in the menu.
what am I doing wrong?
