The OpenGL shading language implementation is inherently superior to DirectX shaders.Cross Platform - OpenGLES being of particular relevance these days for Mobile platforms.Vulcan is specifically for AMD.I'd recommend OpenGL for the following reasons :. OpenGL works on low end machines or for backwards compatibility so to speak. Least common compatibility and makes AMD cards function better as they are optimized for AMD.ĭirectX will work best on Intel and almost all sytems. OpenGL=Draw system, old, legacy, widely supported, low functionality (cant draw advanced shapes as easily or at all as other 2)
Most common tool for drawing shapes on a PC. Just those pesky shadersĪnyway, I rambled on my main question is which of the three would give a general performance increase on lower-end systems lol.ĭirectx=draw system intel uses. Could it be that it's harder for the game to load smaller textures/keep reducing/increasing textures based on distance? It seems zombies have no effect on my performance, I've encountered 20-30 hordes with no drop at all on FPS. Also, I noticed the LOD option doesn't have much effect on my FPS, which was strange to me. Half size is less FPS than Full, but only if I'm not encountering heavy lighting/shadows and etc, lower than half has the same effect, lower FPS general but better in shadowed/lighted areas. Reducing texture size generally has a performance hit attached to it although in 17e, it seems shaders/shadows/lighting (shiny stuff) increases the higher the texture size goes. I know 17e has some optimization planned to be done, but I've noticed a few things. Vulkan I know isn't fully supported yet, so I haven't tried.Īlso, as long as detailed shadows or lighting arent heavily displayed, my integrated GPU generally performs rather well (long as I keep my laptop on my cooling tray I made for it). I noticed, using OpenGL, I had a very slight increase in FPS I noticed sunlight had more of a god-ray style, which was nice, but whenever I turned my camera to new/unloaded textures I had fluctuations in FPS.ĭirectX had more of a stable FPS, at a very very slight decrease. I noticed that Steam offers caching for OpenGL and Vulkan games, but upon running 7 days in OpenGL for a bit, it cached nothing. I am curious: which one should yield better results on a lower-end system for 7 Days? I looked it up, but got nothing but conflicting arguments and that it pertains to how the game was designed. So, I have a general idea on what the differences are between DirectX and OpenGL, kinda.
