ATI 6870 not overclocking (Low FPS) - Page 7

My HD6870 now clocks up properly but the GPU sits as 100% or almost 100% all the time.

Also the CPU is at 26% load.

S!

Ran AMD resource monitor during free flight over France. GPU load was 45-61% all the time, GPU clocks were at 3D speeds etc. CPU utilization was mere 23-27% on average, varied between cores.

GPU load seemed to increase when nothing was visible, like sea or sky. But when looked down on ground etc. it decreased. CPU utilization was pretty constant through the test.

Did a new test with completely different results?!

I have set W7 performance to "adjust for best performance" or whatever it's called in the English version of OS. I have downloaded and used "Gamebooster 2" from IOBit and then I ran it again.

The 1 core is at about 40% to 60% all the time and the other flutter from 0% to 30%
The GPU load is around 50% after an initial 100% for about 20 seconds.

I havn't checked the FPS but it feels very playable atm. Have to fly some and see if it feels nice. All setting are at high except buildings and trees that are very low and also no grass.

Hey guys, I was reading some of the Russian Clod forums and apparently the game still doesn't use a proper full-screen mode. It was still buggy and didn't make the patch. I think having a proper full-screen mode will fix the issue as it is unorthodox to have a intensive 3D program run in a window. The drivers are optimised to run in full-screen mode.

S!

Thanks for the info Phazon. Hopefully a fix comes in future.

This is a bit of a pain, can't get it working without CCC which I can't then set back to standard, or renoot it seems.

This is a massive issue for ATI users, my 5770 still won't go above 400 clock speed. This needs fixing asap!!

Having the same problem with my 5750. Clocks stuck at 400MHz instead of 765MHz. They really should get this straightened out ASAP since regardless of what optimizations are made, we are basically trying to run the game with our hands tied.

A simple fix has been discovered to fix the clockspeed issue. It is because of the flash Ubisoft logo video that plays when you start the game which confuses the card.

Simply rename or delete the Ubisoft logo video found in \Steam\steamapps\common\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover\parts\core\GUI.

It has fixed the issue for my HD4870 and alot of other AMD users!

now give credit where credit is due Phazon

BTW if you have the russian version you dont have this problem.....because there is no UBISOFT logo
