I did think about this for one of the original tests, my hunch is that this is another reason why its a bit slower than last year because it's in season 2 I would say though it's a bit of an ask. benchmark C takes some people 30 mins. Just to get to 10 years in the future I would need to holiday my computer for probably 2 weeks without turning it off Next years benchmarks will definetely include this type of test though. without a doubt Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder how long it would take with a simple setup of 5 leagues (Eng/Spa/Ger/Ita/Fra) - 3 main divisions each - and to reach 10 years in? Perhaps people who do play longer term careers - like myself - could download a benchmark test each - and play for 10 year career - and then hand the files back over?

Maybe although you would lose the control of it without all files being the same The trouble is the All leagues loaded has been the bedrock of the testing for years so that needs to stay but I will say I think there's an argument for using just Benchmark A and using that as a base like this Bench A - as is / full detail / 10 years in as is / 10 years in full detail Like I say though you could make an argument for a lot of tests as everyone plays so differently edit - i'll be updating the spreadsheet in the next couple of days Edited December 16, 2020 by Brother Ben Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

vladikliese89 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Hey guys, what a great Thread and I'm looking forward run the fully benchmark on my laptop. I have run the A and B and will post it in the next days if i'm finished with all of them. But first i've a question. What is the most important hardware component for the fm? For sure it should be balanced to avoid bottlenecks. How much is the GPU and the RAM involved in the gaming speed? I think the GPU is also doing a lot of work, but maybe only in the 3D matches. I'm only playing in the text mode. My Laptop System: Model: MSI GE73 VR CPU Model: i 7 7700 HQ CPU Base Frequency: 2.8 GHz CPU Turbo Frequency: 3.8 GHz RAM: 16GB RAM Clockspeed: 2400 MHz GPU: GeForce GTX 1070 8GB Graphics Level in 3D: Very High Storage Type: SSD I dont know exactly my first result, but i think i'll be in the last third. Is it worth a try to go on 32 GB RAM? If it only will take me 10 seconds faster it isnt worthy. But for 2-3 minutes i'd take it. Have somebody tested it?

Looks like your slightly faster RAM helps as your i9 9900k is 37 seconds faster than mine in Benchmark B. Strange considering A & C are only a few seconds difference. Was this on 21.2? Could be another reason, I tested on the old version. Seems 21.2 is a little quicker. Edited December 19, 2020 by Gee_Simpson Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even with all leagues loaded and a very high detail setting where I fully simulate the leagues in many countries I have never used more than 9gb ram for the whole system. This includes having other background programmes and browser tabs open playing YouTube. I recently swapped 32gb ram for 16gb of faster ram and it made my system ever so slightly faster.

A little disappointed it’s coming bottom to similar specs but with this graphics card I’m able to play most other games I play at ultra/very high settings and get 60-100 FPS so not all bad I suppose. *edit - after looking around it seems like if I paid full price £850/900 then it would definitely be worth paying the extra £100/150 for the lenovo legion or hp pavillion as they definitely seem to have superior performance for the same setup (on intense days the cpu spikes at 100% then drops right after so not sure if the cpu throttles before the day has finished processing so takes longer or if it just dips because it’s no longer processing the day?) as I got it around £650 I can’t complain at all I don’t think. Thanks for the help and advice I’m a complete novice! Appreciate the advice though I’ll definitely give it another check with all updates and run it again.

It`s time to sell the laptop and buy a custom PC for that money, as i`m only playing FM a wont buy a dedicated GPU. Instead of that i`ll save the money and invest it in the 9700 K. Yeah if you have the space a desktop is the way to go. Splash all your cash on the best processor you can get as even a low end GPU is fine for FM Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benchmark C pushed my CPU temps into the mid-90s, so I wouldn't dare try this one! I'm waiting on some RAM and SSD upgrades and will run the benchmarks again after the upgrades are installed. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah benchmark D is a bit of a killer! High 90's is pretty bad though, i've got a 4670k and mine doesn't go up that high, might be worth putting some new thermal paste on the processor, did it with mine not long back and it took a good 10 degrees off the temps Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This PC is nearly six years old now and struggles to stay below the 80s when processing matches, so it probably is time. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Ben Posted January 23, 2021 Author Share Posted January 23, 2021 It's a bit daunting the first time to be fair but if you follow a youtube guide it's fairly straightforward. Gives you an excuse to give it a good cleanout too. What cooler have you got? Is it an intel stock one? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CFuller Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 (edited) New SSD. New RAM. New CPU thermal paste. New benchmarks! Type: Desktop Model: Lenovo H30-50 CPU Model: Intel Core i7 4790 CPU Base Frequency: 3.60GHz CPU Turbo Frequency: 4.00GHz RAM: 16GB (previously 8GB) RAM Clockspeed: 1600MHz GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 745 Graphics Level in 3D: Medium Storage Type: SSD (previously HDD) Benchmark A: 02 min 45 sec (previously 03 min 18 sec) Benchmark B: 12 min 21 sec (previously 13 min 05 sec) Benchmark C: 17 min 55 sec (previously 19 min 00 sec) A good improvement on Benchmark A, though I wouldn't say the results are quite so obvious on Benchmarks B or C. I don't use such large game setups, though, so I'm not too bothered. I wrote about CPU temps last time, with my CPU getting as hot as 95 Celsius on the previous test. The thermal paste is definitely doing its job, as it only just hit 70 on Benchmark B, and then peaked at 81 on Benchmark C. My computer might be getting on a bit now, but with these new upgrades, it's good to see it can still handle FM21 reasonably well. (I'm still giving Benchmark D a miss, though. ) Edited February 3, 2021 by CFuller 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
