Hi all. I am wondering if anybody can shed some light on why my mid 2012 non retina MacBook Pro can equal the performance of my dedicated gaming PC in 4.0.2 for windows x64.
I am running bootcamp with Windows 7 on my Mac, which features a 2.3 GHz i7 (3615QM) and a GeForce GT 650M with 512 MB GDDR5 and using the DirectX 11 backend.
My PC (xps 8700) runs Windows 8, has a Intel Core i7-4770 @ 3.40GHz, and a Gigabyte r7 260x with 1gb (GV-R726XOC-1GD). For this setup I get the best performance in open gl for some reason.
I am testing with Skyward Sword, and on both setups I can achieve 2x ir and 2x aa. It is puzzling to me that the Mac with 650m can beat the xps with r7 260x under DirectX. The r7 260x is way faster in open gl, but the 650m matches that performance in DirectX.
FYI the r7 260x is a refresh of the HD 7790. Both systems are all up to date with drivers. Can anyone tell me why my PC is not performing well with DirectX 11?
