Testing fps before and after a driver update. Then do a test while streaming to twitch to see reduction in avg fps.
While streaming, I cannot tell that I'm streaming. Rescaling 2560x1440 to 1920x1080 at 30fps, using x264 at 5000 kbps. Which
is very costly network wise. I'm uploading 670 kB/s, but didn't drop a single frame after 22 mins.
Look at the two orange rows below and the avg/min. The #'s dont seem very different, but while playing it feels like
a big difference.
The conclusion is basically after update #12, with the new guns and new anti-cheat "Xenuine", my minimum fps while
streaming went from 100-120 to 80. That's 20-40 less fps, but it feels worse.
Intel 8700k @ 4.9ghz, GTX 1070 ti
| Avg | Min | Length | Map | Driver ver. | Avg CPU usage | Date |
| 137 | 98 | 18 mins | Miramar | 391.01 | 4/8/18 | |
| 138 | 109 | 14 mins | Miramar | 391.35 | 4/8/18 | |
| 141 | 107 | 15 mins | Erangel | 391.35 | 4/8/18 | |
| 134 | 86 | 13 mins | Erangel | 391.35 | 4/8/18 | |
| 132 | 89 | 22 mins | Erangel | 391.35 | 46% | 4/8/18 |
| 123 | 80 | 25 mins | Miramar | 397.31 | 44% | 5/6/18 |
I will now show three charts. Before/after update while streaming, and one after the update not streaming.
When I updated drivers, I forgot to re-apply my optimized nvidia settings to boost fps.
Later when I benchmark fps while streaming I'll have those settings restored. Here you can see what I changed in bold.
