00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:05,879
Star Wars Battlefront many many games in

2
00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:10,400
history have a massive trail of controversy follow them but this one has

3
00:00:08,040 --> 00:00:13,599
been one hell of a doozy with IGN flipping back and forth between loving

4
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:19,039
it and hating it and the rest of the internet H not being entirely positive

5
00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:23,199
it's been one hell of a ride the beta is here now so how does it stack up well

6
00:00:21,080 --> 00:00:26,800
this is the wrong channel for a review but stay tuned to see how it performs

7
00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:39,360
and stay subscribed if you're interested in more of these game benchmarking videos this holiday season

Intel brings ddr4 to the mainstream with their new core i7 6700 K and core

10
00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:56,199
surprisingly smooth experience of playing Battlefield was nice I must say

11
00:00:53,480 --> 00:01:00,680
I was half expecting 60 or even worse 30 FPS frame cap but it never came

12
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:04,839
Battlefront was actually running very well the whole time I felt like I'd been

13
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:09,200
transported to another world or something and this is why we decided to

14
00:01:07,479 --> 00:01:13,840
Benchmark the game despite it being in beta so yes as I just said the game is

15
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:17,960
in beta but the release date is coming up very soon November 16th to be exact

16
00:01:16,439 --> 00:01:22,720
and due to its performance being seemingly pretty well tuned I kind of

17
00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:26,560
thought that we could give you guys some insight into the potential performance

18
00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:31,680
of this game so without further Ado this is how I benchmarked it this Benchmark

19
00:01:28,799 --> 00:01:36,079
will be conducted on survival Tatooine the reason for this is that this is a

20
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:39,439
predominantly multiplayer game but multiplayer games are very rough to

21
00:01:38,119 --> 00:01:45,040
benchmarks so we wanted to do a single player segment that being said this single player segment isn't that amazing

22
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:49,200
or consistent skip this cut scene by the way um but it's better than multiplayer

23
00:01:47,759 --> 00:01:53,640
I do recommend running it about three times just to get a good score though

24
00:01:51,399 --> 00:01:57,640
wait for Admiral abar to finish talking and kind of line yourself up with this

25
00:01:56,119 --> 00:02:01,119
particular pathway that should be basically right in front of you once

26
00:01:59,479 --> 00:02:04,119
Admiral black bar is done talking you'll see the kind of pie circle thing at the

27
00:02:02,799 --> 00:02:07,399
top right when that's finished right when wave one begins start your

28
00:02:06,039 --> 00:02:11,480
benchmark and start running forward you'll see in the top kind of middle to

29
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:14,680
the left area there's a timer that should actually perfectly line up with

30
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:18,480
your benchmark so when that hits 2 minutes your benchmark should end follow

31
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:22,840
this pathway up into the right down there where I was looking they might Spawn from there they might also Spawn

32
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:27,440
from up here they happen to spawn behind me this time if they're not directly in

33
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:31,480
your shooting path do not shoot at them so don't turn around to kill them uh

34
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:35,440
just follow this path up into the right and then curve around the corner to the

35
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:40,120
right again up into the left sorry and then curve around the corner to the right um one thing that I'm going to

36
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:44,959
take time to talk about during this segment is that the game looks actually

37
00:02:43,159 --> 00:02:48,440
kind of really good I like the amount of debris that's around that's one thing

38
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:51,120
that I appreciate a lot the rocks that are everywhere you'll see as we're

39
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:55,360
walking up here the rock kind of falls down and looks actually pretty realistic

40
00:02:53,319 --> 00:02:59,480
it makes it feel like a more full environment and I actually like that a

41
00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:04,120
lot take the right side up here when you get up up to this corner um they might

42
00:03:02,640 --> 00:03:09,239
start shooting at you they might not depends on where they are but don't shoot at them pretty much no matter

43
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:12,840
where they are this ramp don't go down the ramp go on the right side but then

44
00:03:10,920 --> 00:03:17,159
kind of run off the ledge directly in front of you land on the half ledge and

45
00:03:15,159 --> 00:03:21,560
then fall all the way down run to the end of this elevated path go on the

46
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:25,239
right side of the rock structure and then as you're going on the right side

47
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:29,120
turn to the left and fall off the side run up the ramp here again this is the

48
00:03:27,879 --> 00:03:32,159
same ramp that we're running up near the beginning but now they're going to be in

49
00:03:30,879 --> 00:03:38,120
front of you if you didn't kill them at the beginning and you're going to want to kill them here if you do clear the

50
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:41,799
whole wave wave two will spawn but that is okay if you don't clear the whole

51
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:45,959
wave like there I left one enemy left alive uh they won't spawn and you're

52
00:03:43,879 --> 00:03:49,599
totally fine go along the same path that you went along before and then you're

53
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:55,400
basically just going to run this until the Benchmark ends so as you can see in the top left hand corner I've got about

54
00:03:52,959 --> 00:04:00,159
15 seconds left and that should mean that the Benchmark will probably end

55
00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:04,640
right on the corner up here now now for graphics cards our NVIDIA product stack

56
00:04:02,319 --> 00:04:09,400
is pretty self-explanatory but the AMD lineup seems a little wonko our Fury is

57
00:04:07,319 --> 00:04:13,079
out for replacement if you check out this graphic from kit Gru we do have a

58
00:04:11,599 --> 00:04:17,280
pretty good representation of their product stack but not perfect kind of

59
00:04:15,079 --> 00:04:21,680
close but oh well for boner we have a 260x which will actually perform

60
00:04:19,079 --> 00:04:27,120
slightly better than the 360 for pit Kar we unfortunately don't have a proper

61
00:04:23,919 --> 00:04:29,160
replacement because we don't have a 265

62
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:33,400
but we just kind of slotted our 270 in there for good measure our 285 is a

63
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:38,840
fairly strong representation of the Tonga category but its main drawback is

64
00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:44,800
the 2 gigs of vram versus 4 and then for Hawaii we have both the old but crazy

65
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:46,680
value R9 290 and the fancy new 390x and

66
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:51,400
then to cap things off as best as we could we have the tiny little fury Nano

67
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:54,919
so yeah admittedly not perfect but hopefully an okay representation of what

68
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:58,360
the red team had to offer and what was impressive though and it actually

69
00:04:56,080 --> 00:05:03,720
pertains to this video properly is that even cards like the 750 TI and 260x

70
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:08,520
which are like 100 bucks in change on newegg.com were both able to run the

71
00:05:06,199 --> 00:05:12,919
game at 1080p with ultra settings at over 30 FPS drop those settings just a

72
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:19,319
little bit or jump up to something like the 960 or 285 and you've got a really

73
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:22,680
solid gaming experience for really cheap in conclusion for a pretty damn

74
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:27,840
attractive looking game Battlefront actually runs pretty smooth on a variety

75
00:05:24,840 --> 00:05:30,400
of setups and I never ran into any major

76
00:05:27,840 --> 00:05:34,280
