okay so this is to you guys have been asking me forever for multiplayer
Battlefield 3 benchmarks and since I suck at video games I'm getting slick to
handle this for me so he's basically on
map Firestorm Firestorm thank you and he
is going to rip along the same path in this Jeep and hope he doesn't die for a
two minute run he's going to sort of head into some more intensive areas than
just being out in the desert I hope at some point uh yeah he's heading over to
like some yeah stuff's going down now see you can see he's going to like smash
into a car you have to hit that car again next time I hope you know
that if you can hit the same mine again next time then we're
okay Slick's trying again he's sort of
saying that maybe the Jeep wasn't the greatest
oh no three
tanks the point of this video is for Battlefield 3 multiplayer users who are
are want to know whether to get a GTX 660 Ti or what by our Reckoning is the
most equivalent card the radon HD if I
can find it 7950 so this guy right here
so we are just going to be doing a head-to-head showdown of 660 Ti power
Edition from MSI versus Sapphire 7950 OC
with the dual fan cooler these are going to be running at their stock overclocked
settings so we're not overclocking them further but they are going to be running
at slightly overclocked settings so slick is doing a two-minute run in a
tank since the Jeep thing didn't work out very well for us in order to give us
some real gameplay sort
of uh is that normal under attack under
attack okay see I haven't played Battlefield
anything really much at all and he's apparently getting pwned in some way
maybe he should just do this on foot this time we're going to go in the tank
for a little bit and then uh Slick's going to get out and just go on foot in
order to infiltrate the enemy base because we haven't gotten anywhere near
the enemy base yet we've been in their base apparently the mine was something
to do with their base he's nodding but I don't believe
him so fire the cannon like isn't that
what people do NVIDIA games we're trying to have like gameplay footage
here or not footage but like you know real world gaming performance of this
graphics card so we're recording with fraps this is going to be a really long
video just due to all the epic failures that are in it but uh I don't know
you're you're probably going to get pwned again here unless you can see see
you're going to die I'm not going to die you might
die you're basically dying now no every
moment you stay alive is one minute closer to death
okay you killed a guy that's good you got 100 points that's probably more
points than I have on my Battlefield 3 account so we're going to do two runs
one with this card one with the other card and we are going to bring you the
results incidentally this is a very full server so this will give us a realistic
idea of how our 3930k and these video cards will perform with 16 gigs of RAM
in Battlefield 3 in a real game if we can ever get the Benchmark done if slick
can stay alive for two minutes so slick took so long to manage two runs where he
didn't die that I got food uh if you can
call that food uh so basically what we concluded is that in Battlefield 3
multiplayer at 1080p at all Maximum settings Ultra presets is that the GTX
660 Ti achieves well I don't know if it
was their goal or I don't know what they were trying to do but at stock speeds it
comes in and eats the 7950 is lunch
they're very very close they both had exactly the same minimum FPS in the game
doing approximately the same run with nice full servers
and the 660ti is cheaper so there you go
also you get support for all those NVIDIA Technologies like 3D Vision as
well as fizx which this game doesn't care about but some of them do such as
Borderlands 2 or Batman Arkham City or whatever else and I think that pretty
much wraps up this video so slick do you want to give them a nice good view of
the graph where you can see the approximately sort of 3% difference in
performance between the two cards showing you that the 660 Ti is pretty
much a a beast don't forget to subscribe to L's Tech tips from unboxings reviews
and other computer videos and
cross no I'm just kidding it doesn't work like that but what it does work
like is results for you guys whoops so slick did finally manage
to get some benchmarks done and what we discovered is that the 7950 and the 660
Ti are basically neck and neck when it comes to Battlefield 3 Performance so
there you go thank you for coming along
with us on this wild ride of learning which one actually performs better in
multiplayer you know what I didn't do is I didn't compare these results to our
single player performance because I've had people complaining bitter to me
bitterly to me that I only Benchmark singleplayer performance and that
multiplayer is much more demanding and much more different so the
7950 was within a couple percentage points and
the 660 Ti looks like was within a
couple perc so in future I will continue
to Benchmark Battlefield 3 using single player and you guys will all like it
