hello, i have a question. i see 2 .exe files. one with avx instructions and one without. what is the difference and what is the best? i have a amd 3900x btw.
I am pretty sure the avx is the VR version, please someone correct me if I'm wrong. I use it to trigger my Oculus Tray Tool app to load my Oculus settings for this game.
What is the difference between pcars2.exe and pcars2avx.exe and which should I use? As far as I know my i7 5820k supports avx but I’ve tried both and didn’t notice any difference with frame rates or anything in a quick trial of each. : simracing There you go <3
thanks for the reply, so it it basicly doesnt matter wich .exe i use. thats interresting. i will try both then to see if it does does anything, and otherwise i will just use the normal .exe
If you launch the game via STEAM and select any of the VR options on Steam's launch menu for the game, it launches the AVS version, not the regular version.
AVX is the better version. The other version is for really old CPUs as fallback which are not supporting the AVX extension. I had this problem in pcars2 with my old system which had an AMD Phenom II X6. If you manually start the AVX version with such an old CPU the game is crashing.
okay, i have a ryzen 9 3900X so if true the avx version should be the way to go for me. thanks for the info.
