Multiboxing Hardware Science!

[MiRai]

No I'm not say there is any tricks at all, I'm just saying that the 1 percent difference that you show: 19 percent of full gpu load with 15 clients showing on one monitor vs. 18 percent with 1 client showing on the other monitor proves my point, even though you feel that because the are about the same it proves your point.

Sam, it proves my point. Client #1 and Client #15 are identical clients therefore they put out identical loads
and take up identical amounts of VRAM. If that wasn't the case, then the bottom monitor should be reading a
much lower number than it is, because if what you say is true, the other 14 clients aren't being rendered.
You're telling me that 1 single client @ 60 FPS is taking up the same VRAM and putting out the same GPU load
as 15 clients using up a total of 200 FPS at the same resolution? That's retarded...

If your gpu can put out 19,000 fps total for all clients then that 1 percent is 190fps which would prove my point. As the game is putting out 250 total fps with one gpu (60 plus 60 plus 13 X 10) showing 15 tiled clients vs. 60fps with the one client showing. Which is a difference of 190fps

I don't know where you're getting 60 + 60 + 130 from. Out of clients 15 through 30 only #15 is rendering at
60 FPS. If you want to add up the FPS, the top 15 clients it would be 60 + 140 (14 clients x 10 FPS) for a total
of 200 FPS. In your world, the bottom monitor is only rendering 60 FPS yet the VRAM and GPU load match the
top monitor.

I don't belive that they would have the gpu render screens that are not seen, considering they dont waste time rendering objects that can't be seen behind other objects.

This is so ridiculous. You're basically saying that if a tree falls in the forest and no one is around... it doesn't
make a sound. Just because you don't see the windows doesn't mean that the characters don't see the world
around them. If what you are saying is true... then the slave characters would never be able to assist the main
character if their screens weren't showing because they wouldn't be able to see what they should be assisting
and would receive the error "You have no target."

EDIT: I made another video for you.

Important Information:

• Client #1 has higher video settings than Client #2
• Client #1 is located in the tunnel to Orgrimmar looking at the ground
  
• Client #2 is located in the Night Elf starting area
  
• Client #1 is rendering at 60FPS foreground and background
• Client #2 is rendering at 10FPS foreground and background
• The inactive window sits behind the active window
  

Now, because both clients have different video settings each window should take up different amounts of
VRAM, however, as you can clearly see in the video... the VRAM doesn't change when I swap windows. Also,
both clients are rendering at different framerates which affects the load on the GPU, however, as you can
clearly see in the video... the GPU load does not deviate more than 2% from the reading at the beginning of
the video.

All game windows that aren't minimized, whether in the foreground or background, are rendered
at all times.

Is there anything else I can do for you Sam?
