This is a recording from out teamspeak server of our very own Corp-mate enlighting us on the most critical way to increase your FPS in EVE.
You may wish to note that "StealthRambo" is the one you hear giving us this earth shattering advice! Be sure to thank him for the FPS increase you will receive from his knowledge!

That is actually true for some games, however I do not know if EVE is affected.
If you suffer from a slow connection, some times your framerate will take a hit. I don't know why, but I have experienced this in other games.

Siigari is right tho.. The early Battlefield series, bf1942, bf vietnam and even BF2 could have some frames per sec issues when u were playing online. When u playing single player vs bots all was running well, but when going online ur fps could plummit to unplayable levels. Dunno why.. Prolly poor programming..

I think i know... probably that low quality net cable.
Upgrade that and your fine. matter of fact, if you dont spend at least $100 bucks on your 15foot cable, your probably losing your FPS to lag.

Edited by: DaxSnake on 28/03/2009 10:59:46 i know this is a joke but.
Ive always noticed, in tranq, i get like 50 - 60 fps but on Singularity i get 60 - 78 fps
theres less people in singularity clogging up the server. this is only existant with a crappy processor like mine.

Even for simple applications like SSH there is a decent reduction in latency between dial-up and ADSL2+. Whether lower latency affects FPS is up to the game. I know FPS for SSH goes up incredibly with higher bandwidths, not that I really care if the 20MB executable gets catted to my screen faster when I forget the ".c" extenstion...
The guy trying to take the **** isn't actually that far off when making the statement about the last mile being the greatest bottleneck - where last mile is the ADSL/ADSL2 between the ISP and your home.
When taking the ****, make sure you don't accidentally trip over the facts ;)

Agreed; however, using cat6 cables at home won't affect your FPS to any greater extent, will it?

Depends on what you were using before. I've seen plenty of cables that handle 10Mbps just fine, but give >60% packet loss at 100Mpbs. Or cables that work fine until one day they lose conductivity for whatever reason, on 1 of 8 conductors.
Again, there's the matter of how much the FPS is affected by latency or packet loss.
But I do agree with the original poster that the guy didn't seem know what he was talking about. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and assume that the words "Cat 6" came out of his mouth because he was thinking of "cable" versus "dialup" internet, and you plug into cable with Cat5 or Cat6 patches don't you?
Okay, drawing a long bow there.

Ok, in that case, yes! I've never seen that much packet loss on a cat5 cable unless it's been damaged.

But CAT3 - 10 MBps (Ethernet) CAT5 - 100 MBps (Fast Ethernet) CAT6 - 1000 MBps (Gigabit Ethernet)
And as others have stated you are only as fast as your slowest link. So as all new computer run 1GBps cards running CAT6 between them is a good choice. However if your cable modem is running 100MBps or fast Ethernet running CAT5 to it is perfectly fine. Now if are running between two Gigabyte routers and/or computers and you run CAT5 you MAY have issues. If you do then upgrading to CAT6 would be advisable.
Keep in mind that the length of the run and what the cable comes near to may effect performance. Power and florescent light can inject noise on the line let alone other digital signals.
Also do not fold Ethernet cable roll it. Putting sharps bends or creases in the cable can cause more problems then anything else. And if you are making the cable there are different connectors for solid core and stranded core Ethernet. If you can't seem to make a reliable connector most likely you have the wrong ones.
PAH this post is getting too long but you all get the idea. Just pay attention to what you are doing and you will be fine.

So, if you consider your corp-mate to be stupid (or at least stupid enough to ridicule him publicly) why do you keep him in the corp?
Also, isn't your TS private material? (I don't know, just want to know.) Did you ask him for permission to disclose this chat? |

Amazing how gullable people are.
You present them with 2 options, 1) cat6e cables effect FPS 2) cat6e have nothing to do with your FPS (provided your network is already in working order)
and invariably people always choose the magical answer
people have been believing in magic for thousands of years, why stop now?? Tomorrow is Sunday and a lot of them will be at church, then come home to their shinny KillerNIC and play some games.

He's partially right. Back in the day the Half-Life engine would receive a higher framerate from a faster net connection, because the data to draw on screen was directly connected to your net connection. If it took longer for the data to be received it would slow down your FPS. They patched it a long time ago when they added Netcode 2 (I think that was the name of it).
Many games in the past have had the same issue. Eve is not one of them. The Graphics engine doesn't rely on the data it receives to begin rendering, it just renders what information it has, and adds more data to it afterwards.
It was hilarious listening to you guys laughing at him though. He's just misinformed.

Good advice but technically your table is wrong as cat5 and 5e are both gigabit compliant.

Quite simply put...
When the application is waiting for data to be received it takes away cycles that could be used for drawing routines on the CPU. These days most graphics are handled GPU side so that's not an issue. But if the application NEED to receive a certain type of data BEFORE it calls a drawing then YES. The effective FPS can drop.
Eve is a crappy game in that respect that it doesn't handle IO in a "seamless" fashion and that is why you can "feel" lag affecting your FPS. However, changing from Cat 5 to Cat 6 will in most cases NOT change a thing. Unless your current cable is ****ty/damaged to a point where it causes packet loss.
My opinions belong to me, you can't have them!

eh that what i get from sleep deprivation, and a caffeine high lol after listening 2 it i totally realized how stupid i sound and how badly i tripped myself lol...
anyway no i change all my network cabling from cat5 not 5e but 5 to cat6a (augmented) they don't make 6e... wiki article i bought these to increase my home networks computer to computer transfer speeds to and from my file server.
after having change all fo them cable from my router to my gateway, and from my gateway to my hub, and my hub to my server and 2 other pc's i rebooted my router and pcs.
my frame rate in eve on not average which only recived a gain of maybe 5 i got a gain of about 20 fps i don't use a killer nic mainly because i never noticed a difference using one. but making that small change helped.
length means nothing on less your talking about phone cord if this still applies now like it did back when dial up was the crazy where the longer the phone cord the more connection issues you had. but i don't think that applies anymore i mean i have router, fax, and direct tv all plugged in line jack with a two sided filter and a spliter which has no affect N/A |
