He doesn't apply the settings when turning ray tracing to Ultra.
Does uplay offer refunds ? Just in case I get this and don't like the performance or would it be better to go through epic store ?
Exactly. It's crazy that people always want ultra on everything if they aren't on the most powerful gpu currently on the market. High and optimal settings are more ideal in this day and age. I saw the optimal settings vid for RDR2 by Hardware Unboxed as well.
If it's like Watch Dogs 2 then it'll take the performance even further!!!
They should just start throwing in real random graphics options. "Other shit" at Ultra please!
Also, anyone know if the game supports Atmos? I need to move the PC and use the shorter HDMI 2.1 cable if so. Otherwise I'll just use the long cable and have the peasants 5.1.
Well from NVidias guide on 2, it's a mere 16fps hit for extra details! For the privilege of seeing road markings from a mile away!
also, console versions will be a mixture of medium/high settings. and sometimes, low.
this is not a 1:1 comparison and never will be.
WD 2 has one shadow option that completely destroys my 2080ti. Hybrid Frustum Traced Shadows, seems like the only game that has that
So an easy 1080p/60fps with Max ray tracing on Turing GPUs. I see nothing with which to be disappointed, assuming the real game reflects the benchmark and it completely fugazi like Horizon Zero Dawn's.
True, but it does give a good indication that it's a pretty demanding game and that not every 4K30+RT game will have a 60 FPS mode just by turning off RT and going to a dynamic 4K or lower res.
What I really wonder about is whether or not we'll see console games with reconstruction techniques that are more advanced than checkerboarding, since that's one of the only practical ways to keep RT on while pushing high framerates.
Is there somewhere with just the actual numbers posted rather than just watching a whole video. I'm really interested in the metrics
The videos are gone but something has to be bugged there, no way can a 3080 get 9fps and a 3090 get 30+ with 4K no dlss/ultra RTX. Either that or it's overflowing the 10GB buffer.
It's the likely culprit, the vram recommendation being 10GB at 4K with dlss and RT ON (there aren't recommendation for 4K dlss off RT ON... it may go slightly overboard).
You see the same kind of performance destruction with offline renderers when the projects don't fit in vram .
Seems to be an overflow as the results say the VRAM usage is greater than 10 GB on the 3090
Yup. As always, there will be two or three settings you can drop from "ultra" to "high" and gain 10-20fps for next to no loss in fidelity.
In recent AC games it's been the cloud quality setting for example. That one alone eats GPUs for breakfast.
Even more worriesome is the benchmark may be upselling performance, actual in game may be even more demanding.
Here's another video of it on a 3090 where with everything on Ultra, no extra details, RTX on Ultra, and DLSS on balanced, and there are drops into the high 40's when driving around. wtf

Yep, I think they have to apply their settings before benchmarking.
Yeah. This is why buying new pc components every year just isn't appealing to me. Games aren't really well optimized, even for the best hardware
I watched this thinking "enh, not great performance but fine - about the performance I expected."
...then I realized it's 1080p/RT/DLSS, not 1440p/RT/DLSS, lol.
RT was on Ultra, of course DLSS had to be in play.
RTX 2070 is a 1080p card with RT maxed, that is realistic.
Just spent $2460 AUD on a 3090 and there is already a game that puts it in its place.
That's a spicy meatball.
That's a spicy meatball.
But is this really applicable? I think people meant that you could get 4k/60 if you turned the right setting(s) down a notch without turning RT on. RT seemingly can't be part of the equation without foregoing 60 fps at 4k.
Yep, exactly. Without DLSS I seriously can't imagine what the performance would be like with ray tracing on ultra at 1080p with that card, I imagine that it won't end well.
Most games will 'allocate' based on the available VRAM, not really indicative of what they actually need. Still, a game requiring more than 10GB of vram from Ubisoft? Yeah a possibility
I have a 2080 and a 1080p display, so I'll be able to bench sans-DLSS on launch day.
Yep, that's what I do a lot for PC gaming. High with some medium settings are a safe bet.
As my thread was closed, here's my videos of our review copy played on Xbox One X, for comparison. I hope to do Series X videos upon release.

Just to mention... Am I the only that believes that DLSS is awesome? Including in this game. It increases about +20fps. Or am I missing something?.
