Assassin's Creed 4 (performance increase solution)

hellooo guys..has anbody tryied to overclock cpu for ac4?I increased my i7 4702MQ for 200mhz for every core and i gained 4-5fps in AC4..its now almost fully playable..i was surprised that i gained 4-5fps...its a really big boost considering that i was getting before 20-25fps mostly..now i can play it with 25-30fps(i can gain even more if i put god rays to low or fxaa instead smaa)...so if anyone has low fps try to give to cpu a boost..maybe it will help you also..my cpu temp was 86Cmax so its acceptable(with overclock)..hope it helps someone also

 

Why don't you overclock your graphics card too? Man that game is long and i'm only now half way through after two months lol and i still have to play the dlc, it's a real badly ported game.

 

What GPU do you have?

 

its bad ported cause gpu usage is low and the game doesnt take advantages of four cores.my gpu is 760M and i overclocked it and i got a lot of space to overclock further(only 60C at max) but i cant find a unlocked bios

 

How much did they change/improve the graphics over ACIII? Cause I'm having no issues with performance on III... did they really add that much?

 

Thermals aren't the only factor in overclocking. Critical paths have a lot to do with it. You could increase voltage all you want, OC'ing beyond a certain point isn't a guarantee.

Also, what you get on your 760m is better than what NBC reports by far. What resolution do you have?

 

i play at native 1080p..i reduced shadows to very high(soft shadows take a lot fps)..smaa,god rays low,volumetric fog on,phsyx off vsnyc off,enviroment very high and other options very high...framerate goes from 22-40fps

 

SMAA eats perfs as well, it's not necessairy @ 1080p (personal point of view : AA isnt needed @ 1080p)

 

the difference between fxaa and smaa is just 1fps..i tryied both
