I just clicked that you are talking about Risen II, not the first one. haven't seen Risen II yet, a little disappointed PB hasn't been working on a Gothic instead, to redeem the series.

If you want a CPU stress test that is actually relevant to gamers and is modern, Skyrim has you covered.

Open the Creation Kit, load "Skyrim.esm", then from the "world" menu choose "World LOD...", select "Tamriel" from the list of worlds, tick "Distant Terrain / Water", choose "high priority", then click the "Generate" button.

This is what my system looks like while generating the LOD's. Much better than any silly synthetic test.

That's as high in temperature as I've seen my 2600K get.

Oh, and I've also attached my grass mod, which gives 100% density to the grass. You can't get more than this short of using the CK to actually place more. Compliments my fog removal mod very well.

pulling 6.08 gb in Solitude (one of the biggest cities in Skyrim) and at least 4gb in the world since generating the Distant LOD data (Bethesda don't have any Distant LOD data defined at all, amazingly enough) and beefing up the SykrimPrefs.ini (edited the listing in the old post). Runs rock solid and still runs much faster than any console could ever dream of running it, no matter how far the chop the detail back. It barely resembles the stock game anymore detail wise!

None since you are in the Creation Kit building low detail meshes.

Still this is a game engine generating game files. You can't say that about CineBench or OCCT or prime95 or intel burnin test.

Nope, Cinebench isn't generating game files. But it is just as useful in its own right.

i'd really like to see your task manager SS with 4GB RAM in your system

Maybe one day. Most likely just as I'm about to change out the 8gb of memory I currently have for 32gb of memory. I'm not a constant fiddler like some of you. I build it, ensure it is stable, then use it.

NP. i may end up doing it first as i am putting in a request to Kingston next week for more RAM.
- i really think that Windows will make do with 4GB and there will be no difference in framerates.

(band1)

And i have to be a "fiddler" .. so everyone else doesn't need to be.
