Doesnt look too good for my 2070 @1440p.
I dont mind RT if its too hard of a hit but even without RT it will run bad in its current state I imagine.

I am terrified of this on current gen consoles. Not sure how it won't be a wreck just based on how crazy the game looks.

I am waiting to buy a 3080 and the rest of my PC is new and ready, so if I can get a 3080 I might buy this on PC this fall or whenever it releases.
Yeah, I don't think I'd give much consideration to playing this on current gen consoles.

Edit: Especially my year 1 PS4/XBONE lol

It's actually 720p.

In this case, DLSS is actually negative news, because a 2080Ti's performance target is more like native 1440p with RTX on. So 4K with DLSS at 1440p.

DLSS at 1080p with DLSS 720p is the performance target of the RTX 2060. If this indeed is true, lower end cards like the 2070 and 2060 won't be running the game with RTX on at all.

This would be waaay below the performance of other RTX titles.

But the game is still work in progress.
There might be multiple RTX effects you can enable or disable like in Control and/or quality (low, medium, high) settings.
So 4K with raytracing is a pipe dream for this game?
If a 2080Ti actually needs to run this at a native res of 720p to have decent framerate then yes. Even 1440p will be a struggle.

I am not sweating at all. CDPR has always deliverd optimized experiences on PC. Maybe you'll have to play it on medium settings, but it'll look great.

How will the next gen consoles fare? If I recall the XSX is > 2080 and the PS5 >= a 2070 Super.

That's insane. Please don't downgrade this and compromise your vision. Current gen console performance should be acceptable considering they won't have all those raytracing effects but I want the ps5/series x to have this mode even if it means a much lower resolution. Can't fucking wait for this!

The reported 3080 is only a 30% increase in performance compared to the 20 series.

So even next gen cards aren't hitting 4k60

If it's this demanding on PC, they should've scrapped current-gen and made it next-gen/PC only.

Are these performance targets accounting for 60FPS? I wouldn't mind playing it at 30FPS full 1080p with ray tracing tbh

Consoles don't have ray tracing which is the biggest performance hit.

Ah, true.dat

Still, it will be a testament to their optimization team's ingenuity to get it to run on base consoles at a decent HD resolution and consistent framerate.

I foresee patches. Many patches over the course of a prolong period of time (as it was with TW3).

Makes sense.
Interestingly, this footage does not have the RT on :X

Sucks we did not get an invite to test it live like PCGH and others, but they ugpraded their RT implementation. RT AO, RT shadows, and RTGI diffused lighting (like control) is way better than just emissives!

I hope 1440p/60 FPS is possible on medium settings without Raytracing. I can't really take 1080p these days anymore and I won't budge on 60 FPS under any circumstances.

Dang. It'll be cheaper for me to just hope it runs OK on PS5 or XSX vs. upgrading my PC.

What build will be able to run at 4k... Gosh damn. Texting my friend now to hold off on building his PC this year.

Honestly if that was a 2080ti, I don't think there is any chance of getting 4K with all the raytracing stuff on PCs even with a 3080ti.
Maybe 1440p with everything turned on but would that even be able to hit 60fps lol?
Or maybe the 3080ti will be a complete monster and a huge step up - we can hope. But I think again, we are going to have to wait yet another gen to get to 4K + bells and whistles on PC at a good framerate so maybe...the 4000 line? lol.
Regardless I'm buying a 3080 something when it comes out. But I'll turn off Raytracing etc if I can't play at minimum 1440p for this game!

Atleast there will be a game to get some performance out of my 3080TI when I buy it.

They also plan to include RT reflections as well. Will update the OP in a sec!

Aside from the performance right now, it's great that the game will feature the FULL FAT (reverb) RT experience.

Definitely not dumping much money into my PC in the next year or so, this will be a PS5 game for me.

Weren't the press streaming the game?

Is it possible 720p/1080p was deliberately targeted in order to jack up the framerate and reduce latency in this context? (As well as reduce encode/Decode/bandwidth needs for the press streaming)

If so this wouldn't necessarily be representative of 'normal' operation (well, unless you also want super high frame rates for local play too)

How close is this game to being your new Crysis?

RTX probably designed for the 3xxx series if the rtx gains are as good as rumored for it

Oh boy. No way this can run smooth on consoles. 2080TI can't play this on max settings?

Gonna have to save an extra two months to get a PC for this.

Yeah my 970 is just melting at the thought of playing this. Can't afford to buy a new PC so I guess PS5 it is!

720p bruh

I guess they have time to optimize the shit out of it.
