mermel Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Hi. I was directed here from another forum (Stoneblade). I have a brand new build that should be worlds above my old Mac Pro 3,1. However, the main game I play, World of Warcraft, is running just as it did before. With 0 addons and all settings on Ultra (2560x1440 Windowed Fullscreen) I'm only getting 27-28 fps in the Goblin starting zone. Here is my build:i7-4790K (OC'd to 4.3 GHz)Gigabyte GA-Z97X-UD3H16GB Crucial Ballistix Tactical 1866 MHzGigabyte GTX 970 ITX OC'dThermaltake 1200W PSUI'm running Yosemite 10.10.2 and have downloaded the newest "Mac drivers" from nvidia (have not installed CUDA). Using the Unigine Heaven Benchmark 4.0 tool, I get the following (seems like a very low score for my system):What can I do to get better performance? Please let me know what information you need from me to help make a good decision. I'd like to nip this in the bud and sell my old Mac Pro 3,1 tower to make some money back after spending $350 on the GTX 970.P.S.: I also run FCP7, but that seems to be running well, as does AE and Resolve.

bbeepp Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Your cinebench score is very good. Seems like your system is working properly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mermel Posted March 2, 2015 Author Share Posted March 2, 2015 Yeah. I deter Your cinebench score is very good. Seems like your system is working properly Yeah, I determined that the AA settings in WoW are bugged and are overloading the GPU. Turning AA off fixed the issue. With all other settings on Ultra I average 45 fps in heavily populated areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gils83 Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 OS OS X 10.10.2 so i would say OS X lol yes , les yeux fatiguent Unigine the test is better on my HD 7850 ! problem this test does not mean much because if you compare a GTX 580 is too old, there are similar figures. certainly there an installation problem #17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
