Thank you,it is very helpful~
Thanks for doing this! Please keep doing these types of videos.
You need at least a 4070 and above for this game
Awesome guide, but this time I would need to use the medium preset. With my 1080Ti in medium preset, FSR 50% and frame gen on, I can achieve 60 fps at 4K, really impressive for this ancient GPU, but sadly with the optimize performance settings I drop to the high 40's-low 50's.
Running well on the 4090. Cinematic 78 fps 4K
Very surprised the game doesn't have native HDR
Low = original
Medium = remastered
30min video about optimizing a game's settings? really? 😂😂😂😂😂
Would be good to see the AMD based settings recommendation … so far what I see on my RX 7900 XTX – RT is out of option for any setting presets on 4K.
what specs are your computer?
monke witcher
can anyone explain why the game produces extreme blur when rotating the camera even with deactivated motion blur? It looks not just as blur, when you look (for example) at the branches of a tree and moving the camera, it looke like the branches are dublicated and layered blurry over it. Very strange and super annoying. I had the exact same thing with Ghost of Tsushima and after an update it was gone.
Ah yes, let me just load up the 4090 and plug my 4k monitor in to watch this video, so out of touch with the majority, lmfao.
You literally have to play with some type of upscaling I tried going native 4k with my 4090 and only got 10-15fps, I only get 45-65 fps with the suggested settings of the game. It's beautiful game but good god does it need power to play
I have a 4090 and have EVERYTHING MAXED. Im getting a solid 59-60 fps
nvidia 3070 recommended settings anyone?
great job, thanks
U GUYS MAKE VIDEOS LIKE THAT?
Wukong is a GOTY material
Hey, nice video. I'm just stuggling to pick one between 4K with your optimized settings OR 2k Full RT DLAA and maxed out cinematic.
I found that in 2K I can have more feature maxed out (of course), but visually I don't really see the difference between 4k and 1440p.
Did you notice any ?
It could be one way to improve performance (and having DLAA) without giving up on too many options. I have a RTX4080 and i'm playing on a LG C1 4k Oled TV.
PS: I'm prefer visual quality over performance (but stay above 30 FPS° and try to not use any Frame Generation as I find the input lag adding too much delay during action and combats.
very optimized game! Playing it in 1440p with my rx 6600 with 50-60fps
Hello Tim, heard from other review that Global Illumination and Ray tracing lighting and shadow actually is 2 completely seperate tech. Can we by any chance turn both Shadow and Global illumination quality to low and set the Ray Tracing to medium? Does it actually affect the visual?
Hey would you consider doing a similar analysis on the latest Cryengine in Hunt showdwon 1896? I think it would be prudent since Crysis 4 is rumored to be using the same engine.
Please keep doing these guides, at least for big releases. We really appreciate the effort that goes into these!
this is superb,,,the effort you put in is fantastic. Thanks
I just crank everything to it's max settings with DLSS Quality at 1440p and it's beautiful! 4090 helps.
so is the cinematic the most taxing one? I don't get it
What about nvidia drivers? is the latest better?
excellent video, thank you!
This is not accurate at all. Whatever setup you’re using to test these gpus isn’t accurate . Go back to the draw board sir.
Fsr on? Or is ist bad?
Medium RT is still broken. So much for them telling you ''fixed before launch''
Damn, thank you very much. It helped my RTX 3070 a lot and the game looked beautiful in the HUB quality presset.
Crysis low preset flashbacks
Great video but doesn't mention anything about upscaling options and which to use. Do you reccomend DLAA or DLSS Quality
Great video
i have an i7-11700k, gefroce rtx 4060 ti, 16gb ddr4 ram, and i get like 120-150 fps on high, but i get so much stuttering when i walk around, but when fighting i dont get this problem i dont understand. somebody help.
Nice. How I discovered you guys many moons ago
11:00 not completely true. i had drops from 60 to 40 on my 3070 with this setting maxed, made it medium and it's all working great, particle effects are huge framdrop risk every time you see a lot of them
Amazing needed video for this very unoptimized game
Thank you
Maybe it's a low end development
How many of these settings will you even notice if you don't have an expensive monitor?
4090 has found its nemesis.
Yeah, I'll just never turn on that full ray tracing.😂. Yup, I never even remember when I ever had my Ray Tracing on. Probably someday I will, when I got myself that RTX 6000s.
I was hyped for the game when it was announced, but coming into launch I was very skeptical it wouldn't suffer from optimizatioj issues and bugs like so many examples nowadays and seeing how you pretty much require upscaling to have decent framerates (which I'm very against). This video however changed my mind and I started playing with no regrets! Running on my 7800XT at 1440p with HUB quality settings and FSR at 75% runs good and since it's so good looking having to use FSR is not bothering me too much. Hopefully there's some driver updates to boost performance a bit to have decently stable 60 fps at native res and it would be perfect. Thanks HUB!
