Battlefield 1 - GTX 660 + FX 8350 @ 1080p Ultra Settings Benchmark

Battlefield 1 - Live Gameplay Benchmark using GTX-660 + FX-8350

Can the GTX-660 and the FX-8350 provide enough power to drive Battlefield 1 at Full HD (1920x1080) resolution with Ultra settings? The answer is a resounding yes!

- Video Link Below -
This video captures Battlefield 1 Live Gameplay with MSI Afterburner and RivaTuner Statistics Server providing a nice, clean benchmark session running at 1080p against the GTX660 3GB GPU from 2012. This four year old graphics card is being hosted by an 8 core FX8350 of nearly the same vintage running at 4GHz with 16GB of RAM.

Quick Results:
~60 fps during prerendered cut-scenes
~30-40 fps during most gameplay
~20-30 fps during intense onscreen action gameplay

This card is also more than capable of handling Full HD (1920x1080) gaming at high settings for nearly every game out there. This is the resolution at which I do most PC gaming at this time. In this video, Battlefield 1 is running at 1080p with ULTRA settings. Yes! Ultra settings!

Also, if you are desiring to work on a 4K desktop then the GTX-660 is still very relevant! It will definitely do the job. I have been using this graphics card to support my desktop applications for quite some time.

NOTE: NVIDIA Shadowplay was used to capture the test and this tool had an inevitable impact on the test results. FPS counts were roughly 10% higher without Shadowplay running but the difference was not significant enough to alter the expected gameplay experience. ...well, maybe...more on that at another time.

Battlefield 1 - Live Gameplay Benchmark


The video linked on this page was created primarily to support research into GPUs and to capture a baseline by which to compare anticipated computer upgrades.

The live statistics seen in the upper left of the screen during the benchmark tests were made possible using MSI Afterburner and the RivaTuner Statistics Server. NOTE: RivaTuner installs with MSI Afterburner.

Skookum Valley Gaming will be receiving a brand new MSI GTX-1080 Gaming X GPU very soon and we are eager to see exactly how much performance was gained by this acquisition.

There is also some curiosity arising as to whether or not the FX-8350 will bottleneck the MSI GTX-1080. The procedures used to generate the GTX-660 baseline will be used to determine if bottlenecks are present in the newly upgraded system.

  2. The single player crusade in Battlefield 3 traverses numerous areas including Iran, New York, and Paris. The majority of the spaces are metropolitan with numerous structures and DICE worked effectively adding clear detail to every space. T Download Games

  3. I'm not sure how I came up here, but I used to think this was a fantastic article. We have an article about Check Clicks Per Second that is also worth reading. The shortest model of the "Click Speed Game" is Clicks Per Second. The number of mouse clicks per second will be counted in this mode.
