If it can 1440p/ultra at a solid 60 on a 2080ti, performance will be similar to AC Odyssey, to run that game with all settings on ultra i had to use resolution scale to 70% of 4k to maintain a stable 60fps, a little higher res on ACO but this was after many patches, when it came out the game had many problems as well.
The minimum is 47 tho. PCGH article shows an avg/min of 42/36. I dont think a 1080ti is doing anything closed to a locked 60 even at lowest settings.The 1080Ti runs at 57.3fps average on 1440p quality settings, with a bit of setting optimization 60fps is doable.Horizon Zero Dawn im Benchmark-Test: GPU- sowie CPU-Benchmarks, Frametimes und ein Treibervergleich

It also has the worst Vega performance I've ever seen in a game. Vega 64 being barely better than a 1060 is so weird. Not even UE games have Vega perform that badly.
RDNA on the other hand seems to do better than average while other GCN cards have pretty average performance. Weird results because you'd expect GCN in general to be very strong in this game as it was made for GCN hardware. I was expecting performance profiles like Forza & RDR2 here. I guess we can blame bad porting.
The 390X @ barely 20fps. Can't wait to see what my 380x can do... I might as well ask for a refund without installing the game lol
I am pretty sure that you are. Happened to me yesterday as well. I was about to ask them for a refund, because i was waiting to hear some more impressions, when i opened my profile on GMG key was already there.
The Buy/Sell/Trade thread is always good for selling some unwanted keys
My guess is that these recent PS4->PC ports were actually created as spin-offs from the PS4->PS5 updates. So the main branch of this game has maybe targeted aspects of the PS5/RDNA2 that aren't as well-developed on PC (e.g. PCIe bandwidth, streaming etc)?
Hopefully it'll see some significant updates but this has been sad to read. I was really looking forward to it.
Hope anyone actually playing it enjoys it though! It's a damn good game

~49fps on Ultra in heavy load scenarios.
Going from Ultra to High improves performance by around 40%.
Ultra to Medium (PS4 settings) improves performance by around 60%.
This is not the reason - Death Stranding does not have the PCI-E bandwidth behaviour this game does at all and is on the same engine and will definitely get a PS5 patch/Version.
I think Occam's razor helps here. If there are a quintillion other ports that perform like X, and one port Y (HZD in this case) performs so radically different than all others. It is likely not some magic behind the scenes, rather the more likely and simpler scenario that we are dealing with a not too great port in many many ways. It has happened before (Batman AK).
I suddenly remembered this prerelease screenshot (from the PC trailer):
Does hindsight call this a complete fabrication? We now know the RX 580 ain't pulling 60fps on Original yeah?
They even claim it hit 122fps somewhere in the benchmark.

The benchmark isn't set in an area with lots foliage. It is a flyby in the desert city.
Performance there is significantly better.
Yeah the benchmark is not representative of a lot of gameplay, or representative of cutscene performance. Gameplay runs worse than cutscenes I find.
Benchmark (easy difficulty), Cutscenes (hard difficulty), Gameplay (European Extreme).
I remember being so excited seeing the Arkham Knight Benchmark results on launch day.
Then the gameplay impressions came out...
Yikes. They better fix this before it gets pulled from Steam and Epic as it happened with BM:AK.
I guess my point is just that the weird performance issues seem to make a lot more sense if this is a port from a 'PS5 prototype of HZD' to PC than if it's a port from the PS4 version to PC. It just seems like a rather weird set of issues to appear when porting a PS4 title?
I'm not even going to guess about Death Stranding vs HZD. Maybe something will become clearer if/when Sony show us 1st party next-gen updates? (I assume they're going to at some point? but I dunno anything)
Guess I'll just play it on PS4 Pro after all. Maybe when the 3000-series cards are out it will be worth it on PC.
Made me laugh because what the hell is european extreme, is this a music reference like norwegian black metal?
Enchanced rain and than rain textures were missing on PC during release, lol.
MGS2 difficulty settings. The European / PAL release came months after the NTSC release and they added a superhard difficulty mode with that name.
No es "Cuando el río suena, es porque piedras trae"? A menos que la frase varíe de región en región jajaja.
Damn, seems like this port is not good? What a shame, it's nice to see more Sony titles on PC, but hopefully this won't be the norm.
It needs to be used more, sounds so brutal.
What in the hell is going on with CPU usage in that video? The game acts like the even cores don't exist and the cores that do exist are barely being utilized.
Same youtuber, but with Death Stranding. This CPU usage is more typical.
Why would PS5 version of HZD need an update? It should run as is. The biggest update I can think of is them providing more options on framerate limiting (like add a 4K/60 mode or something targeting VRR TVs).
RDNA does relatively well here because the game was partnered with AMD who likely spent the majority of their support on optimizing the game for RDNA cards. GCN cards which are similar to PS4/Pro do kinda okay too. The rest underperform due to a lack of proper optimization.
Well, it does scale with presets:
With 5700XT reaching 73 in 1440p a 580 could probably hit 60 there in 1080p.
The problem is the instability of results it seems as they differ a lot between areas and there also seem to be a lot of hitching due to improper resource management on part of game's engine.
I think it might vary by region, yes! :D
i was excited to buy the game (I was gonna use it as my filler until FFXIV's patch and then alternate) but I don't think I can play this game as it is with my 970.
Why have you not provided us the links to said lengthy and technical previews? Lemme see, mon frere.
There are 2 settings which have profound performance impacts - reflection quality and cloud quality, namely their highest versions (high and utlra, respectively). The settings on "prefer quality" or "high" have on average have minimal differences in framerate and visuals over medium.
Excited to hear more. Is your video still on track to drop today?
Yeah just processing atm to 4K! It is a big one due to compression not playing well with the grass I think!
I have the game preloaded and your video is going to tell me if I need to refund the stupid thing. Thanks for all the hard work.
