Downloading right now. I'm assuming DX10, since the last DX11 bench didn't do so well.
 
I think ultra forces DX11 if you have a DX11 card. Also, my frame rate goes up if I add some AA -- is this allowed? Pretty jaggy w/o any as well.
 
Sorry everyone, I wasn't at my computer (and won't be for ~4 more hours), so I had to wing it.

Quick addendum. Do we need to force a certain DX level? Remember, this game has settings for DX9, 10, and 11. Results are going to vary between each level.

Also, once you're done running this test, press alt-enter and the game will snap to windowed mode.

Yes, DX11 mode.
You can make it run in DX11 by editing the .ini file in the steam directory.

Yes, AA.
4x AA
and if there's an option, 4x AF
 
edit main post to reflect you want 4x AA (multisampling is the options name in game).

i'll edit this post later to reflect my new score with that setting

wth how do i have a higher frame count than junk, but have a lower average fps.....dumb bench
 
the bench is never the same in its run...if you haven't noticed - its just a random race

edit: is it just my game or does everybodies dirt 2 crash after you try to escape from the results screen? (i have the full game)

What is up with that!?

How can a bench be different every time!!!?

ugh.....i don't want to have to keep running it for a better score....
 
im pretty sure the numbers will not differ much at all - but i guess you could try
 
if it isn't the same scene rendered every time, there will be certain advantages to be gained by running 1 scene over another....
 
its the same race, its just different results/lines taken by the cars - sometimes every car will go through both water patches too, while other runs they won't. so i can see how it may SLIGHTLY differ by like 1 average frame or so, but otherwise it should basically be the same
 
Ultra High, 4X AA, DX11

The total frame count is a lot different... I also have the full game. This game is a lot of fun and was the first game I tried when I got eyefinity. It actually runs about the same at 6048x1080.
