I have got an amd r7 260x and when gaming I run into some problems. I am sure it doesn't throttle and there doesn't seem to be a bottleneck. The game I seem to have most rouble with is battlefield 4. Even the lowest settings (but always 1080p 60fps cap) it reaches max gpu usage and it starts stuttering. I used to run the card at factory speeds (1050mhz core 1500mhz vram) and I tried overclocking it a bit to see if it would fix it. I overclocked it to 1070mhz core same vram). I am not sure but I think the card can handle the game at those settings without stuttering but I am not sure. I am still a n00b at all this stuff so please go easy on me. If you need any more information I can provide it. Thank you in advance.



Sys specs:
Win 8 64bit (not 8.1 if that matters)
8gb ram
gpu r7 260x 1gb oc from sapphire (I don't think vram maxes out, so I ruled it out)
cpu Icore i5 3470 3.2ghz
latest drivers on everything
unparked cores (I know it is important for bf and gaming in general)
max temps when gaming: 65-70 Celsius. avg: 60 idle: 35-40 sometimes lower

    @Xdqwerty there is health behaviour you can add to your character, then to use a health bar is lil more complicated, google n watch a few tutorial video on it, be too hard to explain here.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, the character has the health behavior
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I know you have to create a health and health max variable. Then there is a calculation you use in code to subtract width size of the health bar. Google few vids.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, the "greenflatbar" is one of the preset health bars btw
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea you can use any bar/sprite. It will just change the width. Ok good luck and have fun. I'm off to go shoot some pool at the bar. Talk to you later.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, why does the health behavior exist if you can just use a variable?
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
