This wine fix interesting things as:

Quote-Virtual memory register needed for starwars force unleashed 1

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21536

-Keyboard doesn't work in games launched from Steam when using virtual desktop

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21770

-Skyrim needs more video memory (this bug apparently ffects more on AMD users)

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29991

-Radeon HD6670 detected as HD3200 (this bug occurs on various AMD cards)

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=31891

-And now recognize GTX760 (This card is detected as 8800GTX) and Geforce GTX 750

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3548

And other things

Test concluded with wine 1.7.17 with steam beta and metal gear rising revengeance works

Quoting: Xpanderwell yeah CPU doesnt really make difference in Valley, because its focused on GPU testing

on wine ofc it does... but GPU not much.

nowadays most games are on shader units.. instead of raw core clocks.
oldschool games might get improvements..but then again oldschool games run superbly anyway with stock clocks

edit: i will try to do some more wine tests if i have time.. but on wine CPU frequency is most important... core count isnt that important unless you run CSMT.
GPU performance on wine is bottlenecked by all kinds of direct3d bugs.. but with CSMT enabled (forcing rendering to other core) it can improve a lot..cause it takes heat off from the 1 and only core that wine wants to use.

For disgrace many issues on direct3d to solve:


-d3dcaps not have complete (this affect various games as saint row the third)

-shadows give problems on many games (the suffeing ties that bind and others) and affect performance


-some light effects give trobles on some games (lantern bug on alan wake)

see around 11 minut

-and other many graphics issues


On input mouse movement have problems on some games is partially solved when you use on windowed but various games dont work still with windowed mode case binary domain and anothers

View video on youtube.com


And other issues in ther areas

Respect CSMT, step by step more close to wine vanilla integration (few a few many thigs are included actually on vanilla) only remains wait

And overhead still is bigger depend game on d3d is appear major difference as farcry 3 and many others

Quoting: Xpandermade some tests also

Stock 660 TI

+100mhz core and +100mhz memory

no big changes imo ... that again proves my point that OC is quite useless for Mid/High end GPU's

also at +150mhz core it just downclocked itself automatically, but the framerates werent that much better anyway till that point

Good test at your max fps up, but you must test with cpu at stock frecuencies vs overclocked frecuencies

Both overclocking shows results but if only with oc your card give 5fps, not bad on wine maybe change something

For example: cpu stock + VGA stock
cpu stock + VGA overclocked
cpu overclocked + VGA stock
cpu overclocked + VGA overclocked

This is very interesting because on your hardware is possible use overclocking thanks to your vga components

And shows if wine depend more cpu frecuency than vga frecuency or both or another situation

Other test if you can make and its very usefull, is testing how many cores affect wine performance, if your mainboard support (you can disable cores: for example test 1 core to 4 cores (disable cores not modules on your fx), most people have machines on this cpu range) and add stock and overcloked states for see how affect frecuency and cores on wine

And possible add test of different resolutions since lower 1024 if you prefer until 1080p, this test is important for how affect cpu performance on cores (single, dual and quad) and frecuency: stock and overclocked

If you have can test the witcher 2, farcry 3, shadow warrior, skyrim with mods, fallout 3 with mods and many other titles

If you make this tests, its very appreciated thanks for hardware components allow this tests without problems (on my case only have some idea about lower resolutions and dual core cpu with moderate values) and give more information about this situation for most people (this information lack this days)

Quoting: PlayXSo I have done a quick test with the Valley Benchmark.
My GTX560ti runs Standard on GPU 900Mhz and Memory on 2000MHz.
with this configuration I have following FPS.
331.49: min 17,5fps / max 49,1fps / avg 29,9fps
334.21: min 17,7fps / max 49,3fps / avg 29,9fps
337.12: min 16,9fps / max 49,1fps / avg 29,9fps
so nothing big has changed.
If I overclock the Card to GPU 950MHz and Memory 2200Mhz
337.12: min 17,9fps / max 53,7fps / avg 31,6fps

so 5,69% win on fps in the average.
Not worth for me ;-)

Good date and good comparative, on my case on wine some titles can better as assasins creed posted up, shadow warrior mantain equal but finish farcry 3 test yesterday and on my opinion performance low a bit, stay more smoothly on 334.21

For disgrace on entry card level, coolers, heat sinks and power components on this vgas its only for work at stock frequencies

Back to topic maybe can try the witcher 2, this game on higher settings is too heavy

Quoting: JoZ3Every day I hate more my HD7850... why amd, Why????

But this situation is mainly on linux, on wine its more critical

On my side works good

on assassins creed brotherhood multiplayer online video with nvidia 337.12 drivers and this is progression with lastest wine (1.7.15 - 1.7.16) and nvidia drivers 334.21 and 337.12


Wine 1.7.15 + 334.21

and othera as shadow warrior

View video on youtube.com


most games at now works good at seem more smoothly than 334.21 on various games (i tested test drive unlimited 2, injustice god among us and maybe others, this titles maybe stay tomorrow on my channel) tested wine with this drivers 337.12

for last this results with shadow warrior



This is with Wine 1.7.15 + Nvidia 334.21
