I have a computer game, if I run it on my main computer with a GTX1080Ti and a processor: i7 Intel (R) Xeon (R) CPU E5-2670 with 3.3Ghz everything is fine.
But if I want to run the game on my laptop, run a GTX 950 and an i5-7200U at 3.1 GHz, the game will only run at 20FPS, and only if the forced GameFPS rate is turned down, because if 60FPS are enforced, then the game was extremely with only 4FPS!
The game itself uses only a single CPU core because I haven't programmed multi threading.
But I want to know why this is so because I want to publish the game on Steam soon and have to know by then what the exact problem was and why it was so weak with the i5 processor?
The laptop has an HDD hard drive and my main computer has an SSD, but I can't expect everyone to have an SSD hard drive in a simple 2D game that was programmed with the GameMaker Engine?
If the game is CPU-heavy and then needs single-core performance, then that's because of the i5 on the laptop. Do the benchmark with C4D R15 and compare the single-core performance
Does the driver recognize that it should be run on the GTX or does it run on the onboard chip of the i5? Ever set your game in the NVIDI driver so that it should run on the GTX and not via automatic selection?
Is an i5 really that bad in a 2D game?
The driver is Nvidia Geforce Experience on both computers, which can also be used to "optimize" games such as The Forrest, GTA 5, Rust, Half Life and co.
The GPU should actually be the GTX 950 because the CHip GPU would have to be deactivated, but I'll check again soon…
No, it is not deactivated… It works differently for notebooks… The IntelChip-GraKa regulates everything until the external GPU is requested / involved via PhysX… Is for energy saving… In the Nvidia control panel you can determine which programs run on which GPU should be… That was even the case with my GT555M (in the notebook) …
In addition, the i5 **** you is not a hit… It has 2 cores that execute 4 threats. So if the cores are occupied by background processes, an average of 1.6Ghz of the 3.1Ghz remains for a threat in case of doubt… And then, if necessary, GraKa calculations of the game, because the wrong GraKa is controlled… The performance goes quickly path.
The 950gtx is also not good and really bad in the laptop. 1080ti
is extremely much better than what is in the laptop.
Do you have the money around everyone in the world to equip at least a 1080ti GPU?
You installed a 1080ti. I told you why your laptop is so bad.
I gave no recommendation.
Your laptop is just too weak for the game. Which engine do you use?
GameMaker Studio 2, but I just saw that the game uses GPU 0, which is a GPU chip, while GPU 1 - gtx 950 is twirling…
Everything was initially set to Automatic, now I have selected the 950M and it still uses the GPU0 for the game
Ka… The driver does it right… I occasionally had games too. Especially older ones. After setting the correct GPU, the game ran properly… Vlt then the external GPU is offered as GPU0. Ka how it works exactly with the PhysX… In games that have named the graphics processor by name, the correct name of the graphics card used was then… Otherwise you could at least notice it from the performance in the game… Whether you have to pay attention to programming, ka… I don't know anything about that… With Minecraft, I still have the problem today. This also starts on the internal GPU if you do not change this in the driver. But then it goes straight…
You have to check that ^^ What is it like now? 2D could create the system.
Now runs a little better but more than 30fps is not possible, if the game demands more it only becomes slower and the animations are in slow motion just like the alarm events in the programming of the game.
Is an old laptop system. Today laptops have more power for the same money
What is little money?
I got it overhauled a few years ago on Ebay for ~ 600 euro.
And I've been looking for others for a very long time, but you can't get anything better for the money without switching to used ones.
1TB HDD
16DDR4 Ram
GTX950M
Intel i5-7200U 3.1GHz
By the way, buying a used computer (without guarantee) is the stupidest thing you can do.
Back then my main computer hadn't lasted half a year until the CPU was nicely grilled. The reason was a round cooler on a square processor and that with a shabby thermal paste!
It's just crumbled down when opening it and the CPU itself was dead…
When buying a used pc always check the thermal paste. I have my brother's old pc.
After maintenance of all thermal paste so GPU, Cpu and northbridge chip on the board. The q6600 socket 775 runs with a new cooler
from 2.4 GHz to 3.4 GHz (I also built a fan for the Northbridge ran
change the laptop's HDD to SATA SSD can help.
For 600 euro new you get more power in your laptop today.
Here it would be better than your laptop and is up to date. https://www.alternate.de/HP/15-db1204ng-(6PE87EA)-Notebook/html/product/1523943?
benchmarks also show that this is great.
I've had AMD before and I won't make this mistake again.
And what should you do with 2.3 GHz?
Amd has something completely new with Ryzen and he doesn't miss 8kern plus SMT. Depending on the cooling and load, it is not just 2.3 GHz
your I5 is defeated. Egala if he has 3.1 ghz. For a laptop of the price top. I load a benchmark of a laptop with the same parts.
