What is 10 ms per frame performance equivalent to if im getting 35 FPS now?

[Pharos]

After reading"MASSIVE GPU Perf Gain for NVIDIA cards, about 10 Miliseconds per frame. Coming as soon as NVIDIA will let us get the new drivers out..." I was just wondering what we had to look forward to.

Im just gonna attempt to answer this, but do not take my word as law:

35 FPS = 35 Frames per second
1000 ms/35 = 28,5714~ ms per frame
28,5714 - 10 = 18,5714~ ms per frame
1000 ms/18,5714~ ms/F = 53,8461~ FPS

Though I doubt that you'll actually see 18 FPS increase

Brace yourself, rocket science grade math incoming:

1000 ms / 35 fps = 28.57 ms

28.57 ms - 10 ms = 18.57 ms

1000 ms / 18.57 ms = 53.85 fps

Answer: about 54 fps

Holy Hell thanks for an educated response! I wont hold you to it but its good to see some math with such a spectacular outcome. Fingers crossed!!!

You're awesome too man, thanks!!!

That math seems correct to me. But we don't know how it was measured and with what kind of hardware ( i assume its not 10ms on every machine ). So probably doesnt translate like that in pure performance. But we can hope.

Dude, this just means that the devs have been talking with NVidia about getting some specific features in the drivers, who knows, maybe they've been talking with AMD as well?

This isn't a change to our game, it's an Nvidia driver release.

You're welcome for Nvidia releasing a new driver, though.

Has nothing to do with the Devs, if you read the notes its a new driver version. So it is actually Nvidia who made an optimized driver for the game. You can thank AMD for not giving a ♥♥♥♥ about the owners of their product and not making optimized drivers for ARK.

any idea if they are releaseing the driver for beta testing if we have beta drivers enabled through GeForce experience?

Any infos on the release date of the driver? Something that confuses me, in the notes it sounds like its going to be you guys releasing the driver, You are just waiting for the "ok to go" from Nvidia.

I kinda got the same idea, more in the direction that you've been talking with NVidia though.
"Coming as soon as NVIDIA will let us get the new drivers out..." needs a rewording if nothing else

I guess they maybe meant. "As soon as Nvidia will give them the new driver, so they can work with it." In any case, its good news.

[UNSTWAPPABLE!!]

Lets me put this into perspective.
Frame time in MS is based on your card AND the game optimization. 20ms/f would be 50 FPS, 15 ms/f would be 66 FPS and 8.3ms/f would be 120 FPS.
How much you gain is heavily dependent on what card you're using and what is the MAX your card will be able to gain. If you're using a low end, lets say Nvidia 750 and running at 20FPS at 50ms/f, theoretically you would be bumped to 25FPS at 40ms/f. THAT IS ONLY AND ONLY IF, your card can actually handle the game at 25FPS. If not, it'll be less than 25FPS simply because your card is unable to output that kind of frame.

It kinda sounds like its already a thing though

Yeah, I have an AMD, too. I bought a $230 nvidia card almost just for this game, but because of other parts being incompatible, I'm still working on upgrading everything. It's slow going, since I have to pay bills and ♥♥♥♥. Right now I play at usually 8-9 fps, with every setting bottomed out, and the screen res at the lowest I can still see with, running the 4gb version. I would run the 2, but my game crashed every time I try. =c But even with all that, I still have over 200 hours logged. This game is worth it...
