The patch could double frame rates on some PCs.

Woooo! 30fps on this has been absolutely fine...but getting the option to push it further (or bump up graphical options) is fantastic.
Any chance this could help push the Series X version to 60 FPS? Or at least close to it with VRR?
Thank god, they really need it.
Even if it's not DX12, at least they have to try some multithreading.

I think they needed to do this to even get the Series X version to 30fps.
Not even a top of the line PC can get 60 fps out of this game in its current state. Even getting a solid 30 fps is tough
That's a good point. I guess I'll keep playing it on my PC then. My 1070 / 4790k are beginning to show their age

Probably. I think this example was at 40% of 4K at ultra on a 2060 Super and a slightly better CPU with the 9700k compared to the Zen 2 in XSX. I wouldn't be surprised if there was a 60 fps offering after this. The DX12 update may even help it at higher resolutions too.
My guess is this work was done in preparation of the Series X/S ports.

Ah, I see that now. I'll probably actually play it on the SX then, what with VRR it will do better than my PC probably.
They weren't, it's very easy to see how the current version hammers core 0.
Holy shit if it really works that well when the update hits, VR may become viable.
I tried VR on my i9-9900k and 3080 and it STILL runs like ass lol.

welp yeah then makes perfect sense then. Utilizing multithreading is a huge performance gain in a ton of scenarios.
I just watched the question and answer session and the developer says "there will definitely be a positive impact on VR, that's for sure", but they don't know how much, "maybe it will be as much as we see here", and that impact will depend on your CPU, GPU and headset.

MS way to show unlike a certain company known for crysis when you got problems you fix them. This game is done disservice in it's current form with that cpu threading.
I know you won't fix windows and let linux flex as it should but this is a great start.
Post 45 on the money. DLSS is amazing before you before you hit 240fps, great for peaks, minimums or consistency. Cities would be amazing.
On good rigs this means you can hit 60fps more consistently or stay there.
That's about 10-20 fps gain and that's not considering what presets that are being used.
Those are gains on 9700k and a 2060 at 4k ultra. Most console and pc users should be mega happy at the gains. If that CPU utlization stays true multi core users could see some amazing visual and smoothness at once.

Same here. Last I saw it was still slated for release this year. I hope that still holds true. I'm still super impressed they found these performance gains without yet making the jump to DX12.
They are testing stuff now btw
This is for PC. Go to your xbox insider app

Insane.
I'm wondering what 1440p on 3080s with good rigs is gonna produce. 60-100fps consistency would be insane.
