    CPU: i9-9900X, 10 core
    RAM 64 GB
    I just upgraded my GPU from a GTX 1070 Ti 8GB to RTX 5070 Ti 16GB
    Still running same 3440x1440 screen

    Keeping all settings identical to how they were on the old GPU--high but without dynamic reflections. Not 'ultra' as my old card would be terrible. WestCoastUSA (Industrial spawn) showed no increased fps. Av 55 fps. Same as before. Add eight AI cars with pooling and it's down to 30-40 fps. Same as before. This level behaves exactly like it did with my old GPU. Now, I open my custom level that was hovering at 67 fps before, it's at 150. Johnson Valley is over 200! Doubled fps on that one (it is just a desert). But it's frustrating because in JV I can go full ultra with fps to spare. But then if I load WCUSA it falls apart-and changing quality settings still takes half a year (give or take). Honestly I was expecting more of an 'across the board' improvement with this upgrade.

    Had a Laptop with this spec:

    CPU - Ryzen 7 6800H
    RAM - 32GB DDR5-4800
    GPU - RTX 3070 Ti Laptop

    Runs like 50 FPS with 395 mods enabled on C1 Expressway. I could get more if i disable some mods tho..

    CPU is an AMD Ryzen 7730U
    GPU is the AMD Radeon RX Vega 8 [4000/5000]
    16GB of RAM [im surprised my labtop came with this much]
    and i run around 25-30 frames on average. about 20-25 with 2 vehicles, which honestly is enough for me.

    New(er) PC:
    CPU-AMD FX-8300
    GPU-RADEON RX460
    RAM-32GB DDR3 (forgot the speed)
    Lowest on most settings, lighting on low, textures on low, dynamic reflections and the other reflections on. I can run about 40 FPS on west coast no traffic. Running 10 traffic cars I can support 20 FPS roughly which is plenty good enough for me. Having lighting and textures on low make the game at least not look unbearable.

    Old Laptop:
    CPU-I5 4200U
    GPU-HD 4400 (integrated graphics)
    RAM-4GB (forgot the speed)
    Lowest on everything and running nothing you can get like 25 FPS. This hardware is probably not even supported anymore if I remember but it could run BeamNG. How I started playing BeamNG back in the day

    Running Windows 10 Pro, plays wonderfully at about 70-80fps on WCUSA with 7 cars and graphics settings maxed at 1440p, but it all takes forever to load since the drive is ancient :/

    i7-14700k with 420mm cooling.
    32gb ddr5 6000
    msi motherboard, 2tb m.2 980 samsung
    2070 rtx
    42" LG C4 120hz 4k

    Beam runs 40-60fps on this setup with 4k

    Barely never go over 60 if multiple cars because of gpu bottleneck, but atleast it stays stable no matter how many cars there is till the number is 20or under (in SP atleast)

    GPU Nvidia GeForce GT 1030 'Colorful' (DDR4 version)
    Motherboard: Gigabyte B365M DS3H v1.0
    RAM: 48GB DDR4 2400Mhz (16gb+16gb+16gb)
    Storage unit: 1TB Western digital HDD 7200rpm (the blue colored one i forgot the name)


    not that important but worth mentioning
    CPU Cooler: factory one
    PC Case Fans: None
    PSU: XPG CYBERCORE 1000W PLATINUM
    Monitors: Samsung S19D300 + Samsung SyncMaster 932NPLUS
    PC Case: old 2005 commodore prebuilt (white yellowish)


    BeamNG, lowest preset with normal textures in west coast USA: average 45 FPS minimum 28 maximum 51 ( depends on the area )
    West coast USA with traffic (5 traffic ai simplified + player): average 30 fps minimum 18 maximum 40 ( depends on the area )

    however after some time ( i presume i start running out of VRAM ) i start getting average 11 fps minimum 8 maximum 15
    which in my personal experience is not playable ( even after deleting the traffic ai fps are the same and i have to reset map or game )

    still better than my first pc

    All mods were disabled for testing, its probably worse with all of my mods enabled

    3D V Cache suffix . The AMD R9 5950 has a X3D option, hence R9 5950X3D . All AMD R9 top spec CPU's have a X3D edition (I think).

    All R9 Ryzen CPU's do not have 3Dcache. Only the X3D models.

    There has never ever been a 5950X3D option,

    R9 9950x no 3d cache
    R9 9900X no 3d Cache.

    I do know that only the X3D has 3D V-Cache technology. The R9 5950X3D does exist, but only as a public prototype, not a retail model. AMD only released the 5950X (not X3D) as the highest spec option.

    No it doesn't exist. You couldn't buy it, there were never any documented benchmarks of it a video with an engineering sample doesn't mean it was available. It does not exist, it was never an "option" an option would indicate it was available, it never was.

    Think less, and only post proper information not to mislead people.

    We (@Jefferson KANG & me) are posting proper information.

    That being said, I hope you used the links I included in a previous post. (Which you unhelpfully deleted)

    I think you should not immediately attack other people's different opinions. It's ok to compare differences, but this should be done respectfully.

    I never deleted anything. I'm not attacking anyone I'm asking for proof of something you claimed....and you still can't provide me with any proof. I greatly despise people who post incorrect information. Which is what you are doing. So please show me exactly where I can see actual benchmarks of a 5950x3d cpu
