3D Vision CPU Bottelneck: Gathering Information thread.
  1 / 22    
I have been asked to open a thread regarding the CPU botteleck that enabling 3D Vision causes, which leads to a severe decrease in performance. 3D Vision should have next to no CPU overhead, but it transpires through testing that not only it does, but it does to a significant degree. The aim of this thread is to gather information so that it can be presented to nVidia for analysis and a fix. May I kindly request that only results are posted here. Discussion on the topic, can be found here: https://forums.geforce.com/default/topic/832496/3d-vision/3d-vision-cpu-core-bottleneck/ [color="green"][b][u]Introduction:[/u][/b][/color] If the GPU is not bottlenecking performance, the CPU usage significantly DECREASES when 3D Vision is enabled in almost all games. 3D Vision seems to cause a CPU bottleneck, which causes the GPU usage to be significantly reduced, as the CPU can't feed the GPU fast enough any more. This CPU bottleneck results in very low FPS and lag spikes and uneven hard stutter, which results in games performing badly in 3D Vision.. The problem is exponentially worse for games that use more threads, for example a game which uses 6 cores such as GTA5 is limited to the performance of 3 cores, which results in a 65% performance decrease. This problem will get exponentially worse as games are developed for newer generations of consoles such as XBox Scorpio, or PS4 Pro, and others which are to follow. CPU bottleneck is confirmed because you can overclock/underclock the CPU alone, while everything else in the system remains constant. The FPS and GPU usage will scale linearly with the overclock / underclock of the CPU.

Load up a game and lower graphics settings and resolution until 2D and 3D Vision in the game results in less than 90% GPU usage. Load up a game, go to a CPU intensive area where your 3D FPS is less than half your VSYNC e.g, for 120Hz monitor, ensure you are getting less than 60FPS in 3D. This is to ensure that your system performance isn't being capped, as your CPU and GPU will not work any harder when your game reaches and is capped at 60FPS (or the game engine cap for that matter). Toggle 3D Vision to OFF and note down: 1. CPU usage 2: GPU usage 3. FPS Then Toggle 3D Vision to ON and note down: 1. CPU usage 2: GPU usage 3. FPS To stress again, neither of these should have the GPU at >90%, or the 3D FPS anywhere near 60. If there is no problem, then what you should see is that the CPU usage remains the same in 2D and 3D, however, the GPU usage significantly increases (3D Vision doubles the stress on a GPU). However, the FPS should remain about the same in 2D as well as 3D as the GPU is not being bottlenecked. Example: Game Name: Some_Game_Name Toggle 3D Vision to OFF: 60% CPU usage 40% GPU usage 50 FPS Toggle 3D Vision to ON: 60% CPU usage 80% GPU usage 50 FPS Notice how the GPU is working twice as hard in 3D Vision, but you are still getting the same FPS.

Unfortunately, what you will likely find is that the results are more like: Game Name: Some_Game_Name Toggle 3D Vision to OFF: 60% CPU usage 40% GPU usage 50 FPS Toggle 3D Vision to ON: 30% CPU usage 40% GPU usage 25 FPS Here, the 3D Vision driver has bottlenecked the CPU which has in turn not enough data to feed the GPU, so you are getting a severely degraded FPS. So far, the only way around the issue is brute force: use the latest Intel processors at a heavy overclock, which will increase performance to a certain degree.

Introduction:

If the GPU is not bottlenecking performance, the CPU usage significantly DECREASES when 3D Vision is enabled in almost all games. 3D Vision seems to cause a CPU bottleneck, which causes the GPU usage to be significantly reduced, as the CPU can't feed the GPU fast enough any more.

CPU bottleneck is confirmed because you can overclock/underclock the CPU alone, while everything else in the system remains constant. The FPS and GPU usage will scale linearly with the overclock / underclock of the CPU.

Some games of note which exhibit the CPU bottleneck with 3D Vision while the GPU usage remains well below saturation:

GTA5 (65% performance decrease)
The Witcher 3 (50% performance decrease)
Call of Duty:Advanced Warfare (72% performance decrease)
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided (53% performance decrease)
Just Cause 3
Batman Arkham Knight

Testing Methodology:

It's simple! All we are trying to do here examine what the CPU usage and FPS are like when the GPU is not being saturated.

Install CPU/GPU monitoring software such as MSI Afterburner, and enable:
a. Average CPU usage
b. Average GPU usage
c. Average FPS
In games, these values should display game performance in pink on the top left corner.

We want to get rid of GPU bottlenecks i.e. where the GPU is more than 90% load. Load up a game and lower graphics settings and resolution until 2D and 3D Vision in the game results in less than 90% GPU usage.

Load up a game, go to a CPU intensive area where your 3D FPS is less than half your VSYNC e.g, for 120Hz monitor, ensure you are getting less than 60FPS in 3D. This is to ensure that your system performance isn't being capped, as your CPU and GPU will not work any harder when your game reaches and is capped at 60FPS (or the game engine cap for that matter).


Toggle 3D Vision to OFF and note down:
1. CPU usage
2: GPU usage
3. FPS

Then

Toggle 3D Vision to ON and note down:
1. CPU usage
2: GPU usage
3. FPS

To stress again, neither of these should have the GPU at >90%, or the 3D FPS anywhere near 60.

If there is no problem, then what you should see is that the CPU usage remains the same in 2D and 3D, however, the GPU usage significantly increases (3D Vision doubles the stress on a GPU). However, the FPS should remain about the same in 2D as well as 3D as the GPU is not being bottlenecked.

Example:
Game Name: Some_Game_Name
Toggle 3D Vision to OFF:
60% CPU usage
40% GPU usage
50 FPS

Toggle 3D Vision to ON:
60% CPU usage
80% GPU usage
50 FPS

Notice how the GPU is working twice as hard in 3D Vision, but you are still getting the same FPS. If you get a result like this, please post it. This shows that the 3D Vision driver is working perfectly as it should and not causing any bottlenecks.

Unfortunately, what you will likely find is that the results are more like:

Game Name: Some_Game_Name
Toggle 3D Vision to OFF:
60% CPU usage
40% GPU usage
50 FPS

Toggle 3D Vision to ON:
30% CPU usage
40% GPU usage
25 FPS


Here, the 3D Vision driver has bottlenecked the CPU which has in turn not enough data to feed the GPU, so you are getting a severely degraded FPS.

So far, the only way around the issue is brute force: use the latest Intel processors at a heavy overclock, which will increase performance to a certain degree.

Summary:

3D Performance (46fps / 76fps) x 100 = 61%

CPU usage drop in 3D Vision = [(2D 89% CPU usage) - (3D 72% CPU usage)] / 2D 89% CPU usage) x 100 = 20% CPU usage drop caused by 3D Vision

I'll update this post for my results later. I think we need should use things without 3Dmigoto. Or atleast limit examples. Nvidia does not support 3dmigoto. So if we give them all results with 3dmigoto they'll just say we do not support 3dmigoto. I know we know that 3dmigoto does not add very much overhead. But we need to show nvidia it's their drivers fault.

Right... So... Downlocked my CPU to 2.0 GHz from 5.0. Disabled SLI I am running one 980Ti at stock (had to search for the stock values as mine cause OC from factory). Tried all the Batman 3D Vision Ready games as long with Metro 2033, Last Light, Witcher 3 and so on... I can't reproduce this. Best example: 1920x1080 resolution. Witcher 3 -> 2D (Nvidia 3D Vision disabled). I get around 90 FPS Witcher 3 -> 3D Vision Enabled but not activated - I get around 80-83 FPS Witcher 3 -> 3D Enabled and Activated - I get around 45 FPS. This is single monitor, single 980TI. CPU was running 90% on all physical cores. Load was 40-60% on virtual ones... Not sure what to make of this... If it is a bug, I don't think it was "introduced" with any version. It seems to affect Pascal for some reason. I wonder if the driver needs an update for the Pascal architecture... EDIT: GPU never reashed 99%. It was hovering around 70%. CPU though was running wild...
