December 17, 201411 yr Gents, i need your thoughts concerning hardware tess.. When selecting it i get about 100% cpu and 15% gpu usage When deselecting i nearly get the same. The only thing that changes is VAS. In the situation i test i get with hardware tss 1.1 GByte VAS left and without hardware tess. i get about 1.4 left. I really wonder why my 970GTX is only at 15% and why hardawrae tess. seems to make things even worse (concerning VAS usage) Appreciate your thoughts on this, Carsten Carsten U
December 18, 201411 yr That's odd ... tessellation is a hardware accelerated feature and really shouldn't be consuming more VAS ... let me do a quick check and get back to you. Cheers, Rob.
December 18, 201411 yr Author update: i backed up P3D and now installed a clean 2.2 version. now GPU usage is at 30% average. Will test and post what happens when upgrading to 2.3 and 2.4 Carsten U
December 18, 201411 yr Sorry, didn't get to test Tess VAS usage yet ... I was doing the highly recommended Samsung SSD 840 EVO "performance update" (firmware update along with drive/file refresh) on 3 of my 1TB SSDs, taking forever ... still running right now (on the last drive). Will do this weekend, but I'd be surprised if Tess is causing significant extra VAS usage. Cheers, Rob.

Thanks for coming back to me and have fun with the performance update :-) Best, Carsten Carsten U
