Wait for gpu

I was wondering what the wait for gpu stands for when you press control +f to bring up the FPS counter

 

Ahh I see it fluctuates but most of the time is in the 10.0s sometimes it’ll jump to the 20s considering I have a 950 with 2gb of vram I can see it’s a bit of an issue and I reduced just about everything to low and my gpu was still at 100%, I need to upgrade my whole system anyways though, I’ll probably wait for 3rd gen Ruben and Navi to come out before I decide

 

I get 60fps just depends on the map but I get frame drops mainly when I load a map and first start driving around it goes away after I’ve been on the map for awhile I have an i5 6400 it’s not terrible but definitely showing it’s age just like the 950 lol

 

I generally run max settings on everything but with only a couple of things tweaked and I have no signs of stuttering but I am running a 6GB 980Ti so I have enough horsepower to overcome most of my problems

 

Crazy how the 980ti is still costly nowadays, what cpu are you rocking? And thank you for enlightening me On that

 

haha check my signature, but its a Intel Core i7-5960X

 

1000 / 52 = 19.23
1000 / 19.23 = 52
52 * 19.23 = 1000 if we ignore rounding issues.

It is always locked together, I doubt very highgly that you can see any CPU performance limit from that number, you need to use performance monitoring tool for that.

Wait for GPU is also around 0.4 in windowed mode for me, even there is no difference in fps between full screen and windowed mode with vsync enabled those numbers don't tell anything, same for fps limiter enabled.

If GPU can finish frame in 2ms or so, there can be lots of GPU wait from vsync for example as with vsync on with 52fps you would be rendering 30fps in reality and that is quite long time between frames for CPU to finish the task and wait for next rendering need.

 

i have a gtx 950m, with 6 GB of vram, rocking a core I7 67000 HQ overclocked to 3.7 Ghz, with 8 GB of ram. i have no problems on the standard maps untill i get up to 3-4 vehicles but the mighty 5 years old dangerously overclocked laptop GPU studders a bit on unoptimized mod maps like sultan peak and advanced island.
