Frame rate comparison between 2 games (high graphic vs low graphic) on the same gpu?

RockWarrior

hi all, (Eng is not my 1st lang). my question is how a high graphic game can give me 35-40 FPS on my gpu, while another game (a game with really small map/level and not high on polygon) can't even reach 25 FPS even with low setting !? how the game developers are doing this? is it a smart game build vs fast build? or something else?

Ex: GTA V vs Daylight

It's complicated. Without access to a profiler it would be difficult to narrow down why. Could like lighting, differences in shader complexity, differences in optimization, code optimization.

thanx for your reply,
so it depends on the game engine and how smart and dedicated the developers of the game, right. (i'm using Unreal Engine 4).

sorry for the noob question, but what is a profiler?

A profiler shows you how much time your CPU and GPU are spending on each task, each frame. Here's some information how it works in UE4 https://docs.unrealengine.com/latest/INT/Engine/Performance/Profiler/index.html
