I would argue that the best thing one can do for an old GPU running modern games is to get an old CRT.

The image wasn't sharp, but rather warm, smooth and movie-like. Most of the upscaling artifacts was masked beautifully by the inherit pixel blending of the CRT. I ran Cyberpunk at 1280x1024 at 85Hz and it looked amazing. Although the resolution is lower than 1080p, it certainly doesn't feel like it

Low GPUs will always scale games and accept quality compromises. The real issue comes if the game is CPU heavy and not optimized above console level performance. Because then a CPU that's as old as this card might not even make it above 40 FPS anyway. There's zero way anyone with a PC this old would reach 80 fps in a modern title just on CPU alone. For their sake I hope they can play it at the 43 FPS FSR Quality gives them at 1080p with a CPU that old.

[@lee-l2v]

Firstly, let me explain to everyone. Unreal Engine 5, currently the optimization technology for vegetation has not been significantly improved, and the scene provided by developers for testing is already the most vegetated image in the game, with a large amount of vegetation. If this scene is not a problem, then other scenes will definitely be fine. Secondly, the lag in battles that everyone is concerned about is actually lower in performance consumption compared to the tree environment in the entire scene of Unreal Engine 5, where characters and enemies consume less than the performance consumption of vegetation mapping shadows and lighting. This is quite different from mobile games and non-UE5 games. There will be performance, but not much. The assets of the scene are tens of millions of faces, and if the assets of the character are hundreds of faces, it is considered more. In ARPG, except for some scenes, there will be no monsters, and boss battles are mostly one-on-one, so there is no need to worry about this part. Thirdly, for horizontal comparison, do not compare with materials like 2077. The performance consumption of 2077 mainly lies in materials such as mirror reflection. Some people compare Black Myth to 2077, but I can only say that resources are not on the same scale. My suggestion is to compare the vegetation area of Horizon 2.

[@Hitmanblood]

While I agree with your point on scalability, my primary concern is that resolution seems to be the only factor that significantly impacts framerate. Using FSR/DLSS to lower the resolution has the most noticeable effect on performance, while the difference between cinematic, high, and even the lowest graphics settings is minimal. Additionally, the path tracing/full ray tracing setting doesn’t seem to offer a substantial visual improvement; if you compared them side by side, I doubt most people would notice much difference. I also mentioned in a previous comment that this benchmark tool doesn't provide an accurate representation of what the game might actually be like. Without context, you wouldn't even recognize it as a Black Myth: Wukong tool-it could easily be mistaken for a generic Unreal Engine forest benchmark.

[@lynackhilou4865]

Max settings in the majority of cases gets u diminishing returns so even for an optimized game and it's especially for a demanding one it's almost never worth it , it's still scalable if the settings below it provides appropriate visuals for the performance . I think alan wake 2 is a good example , it looks really good on low and uses some form of software RT on all settings , so it's really demanding on all settings but you can play at low and it will still look great Resolution is the best performance win in UE5 because a lot of effects from lumsm to RT and path tracing and other non RT stuff are applied per pixel , so using an upscaler will bring massive improvements compared to lowering settings that still apply to the same numbers of pixels . As for the look of the game , you're right we don't know how accurate this benchmark is to the look of the game and its performance is , especially when fighting and all the crazy effects going on , and RT/PT may look better in different areas of the game not included in the benchmark , like with cyberpunk sometimes raster and PT look similar enough but other scenes it looks like a generation better

[@danielkirchner3394]

After watching your video, I tested the benchmark with the Frame Generation of the DLSS and FSR on my RTX 4080. They are completely different, with DLSS FG I got a completely flat frame time line, but with FSR the line was an oscillation madness. I disagree that FSR is increasing fluidity, it is not, it is only increasing the raw number of FPS, but you get a much worse fluidity because of the very oscillating frame time. Increasing the FPS does not always increase fluidity, the oscillation of the frame time is as important or even more than the total amount of FPS. Even with VRR it probably would not save you from this instability of the frame time. In this benchmark demo, the DLSS Frame gen is viable, the FSR isn't. They do similar things, but they are not equivalent in the final results.

People need to start drawing a line between "unoptimized" messes like starfield that look nothing like this game and "Demanding", this game is simply demanding and they've done their due diligence to push graphics into the next generation while optimizing for a wide range of systems.

It matters very little when your GPU is struggling to hit 60fps. That 7800x3d is sleeping, it probably could hit 200fps in this game, meaning at 60fps, a CPU with around 30% of the 7800X3D performance is enough. If that’s the case, a Ryzen 5 2600 is likely more than enough for 60fps gaming in this title. CPU performance is really a non-factor unless a game is hitting the CPU limit. If both the 2600 and the 7800X3D are able to hit 80fps, let’s say, then a GPU capable of 60fps is going to run at 60fps with both CPUs.

XeSS at 50% looks better than either TSR or FSR at 67% (and I mean in this benchmark, nut just in general), but TSR seems to be the most stable when it comes to motion. I remember when Talos 2 came out. Played with all the settings for a while and in that game TSR and DLSS were the best because of motion and beams. Both FSR and XeSS looked better than TSR if there was nothing moving, but adding movement seriously degraded the image compared to TSR and DLSS. The dotted beams that showed linked connectors where especially bad. I wonder if XeSS would have been better on an ARC card.

If a game can't run at least 60 at the highest possible settings on the most expensive GPU right now then hell yeah it's unoptimised!

[@mhh16]

Game still could be optimized further. My 7900 XTX at 1080p very high native gets around 70-75 fps, which is unacceptable at that resolution. Didn't bother to test at 1440p because I know performance will be abysmal and I refuse to use frame gen

[@kingcaesar3693]

This is odd cause about 3 hours ago I ran the test too and had it on high 1080p and it ran it's average was 108FPS. I'm using a Nvidia card so i got no clue if that changes things.

[@mhh16]

@@kingcaesar3693 you had it on high, not very high, so that's probably why

[@ZeroZingo]

Terra Ware youtube channel benchmarked 7900XTX in this game and could get very respectable framerates in 4K using the 7900XTX, the game looking fantastic. Go look at his settings.

[@albert2006xp]

Who would run 1080p native over 1440p FSR Q? What? Have a feeling optimized settings need to be made, like many games you really should never just yank it all the way and leave it there, there's usually a lot of settings that waste performance for basically nothing. Like Ultra shadows vs High shadows in a lot of games.

[@mhh16]

@@albert2006xp I always try to play my games at 1440p native. I saw how poorly this game was performing at native settings so I decided to bench at 1080p instead and got those results. Also cinematic settings are the ones that are maxed out, very high is not cranking the game to max. It looks like high settings are the sweet spot for this game Edit: tested it on 1440p fsr quality, got the same fps as 1080p native. 1440p native gives me 55-65 fps. Pretty bad for my standards, but I guess that’s what unreal engine 5 gets you

[@mraltoid19]

So, an RTX2080 would be running RT Recommended? I think the RTX2080=RTX4060, right?

[@gghhoosstt1233]

Can you check it on Rx 580 too? i want to see if the performance is same or is it different like in ghost of tsushima where rx 580 performs significantly better then 1060.

[@tonypeng1815]

Medium but set global illumination to low can give you 10-15% boost

[@NocnaGlizda]

My 1080 is 8 years old now. I can barely play anything new. If a game has poor optimization (and this is a popular occurrence) then I won't even try to turn such a game on. Such an add-on to Elden Ring is practically unplayable. Every now and then temperatures jump from 60 to 84 degrees. The most interesting thing is that when the temperatures are high the frames are stable. The frames drop when the temperatures are quite normal. DLC optimization is tragic just like the basic game at release and some year after release. I need to buy a new GPU but the prices are terrible for me.

[@tanthokg]

Tested on a sapphire nitro+ 7900 xtx, 1440p cinematic preset 100 super resolution and no FG gives me 53 avg fps, with the highest is 61, VRAM usage is 9GB

[@MinosML]

Btw it seems older GPUs benefit from running this game in DX11 so there's also that

[@sacb0y]

No XeSS comparision? Visually XeSS should look better than both FSR and TSR. Or does XeSS not work on a 1060?

[@zgoaty9235]

I mean, it KINDA DOES, but there’s something with the Pascal architecture that XeSS does NOT like. Frame rate ends up being worse than if you didn’t use upscaling at all.

[@killermoon635]

XeSS does not perform well on old gpu like Pascal

[@jorge69696]

Wasn't expecting it to reach 60 fps at all.

[@2cars10]

At low settings my 1650 laptop will match and even best the 1060 by about 5%, but at medium I'm down by about 5% from running out of vram likely.

[@Angel7black]

1060 getting hit with these UE5 tech demos in 2024 like “I’m tired boss”

[@lanelesic]

Looks like end of the line for the 1060... Wonder how the RX 580 8GB would perform. 🤔

[@albertloxton4520]

Better than 1060, actually

[@eugkra33]

frame gen seems to be broken sometimes in this demo. I've had the AMD version enabled and it did nothing until after a total shutdown and restart of the demo.

[@diuran1919]

for people who complain fps is low even on good spec pc. play on fullhd, medium settings turn off RTX and other settings that like in many test in this benchmark, give worse visual quality and lower fps.

[@Chasm9]

This game needs a sharpening slider!

[@testerpt5]

gtx 1080ti runs ok with Fsr medium settings, with scenemaric textures, auto set to 50% scaling you don't need it but you can apply lossless scaling for 2x/4x just with almost max settings 😂 for "amazing" fps , got 70+

[@thehunk1]

Basically the 1060 is how this game's going to play out if it comes to the Series S.

[@keyycee5547]

Is that complete Raytracing setting path tracing/nanite? if disabled does the game still has normal raytracing and if so does it has to be put on Cinematic ?

[@lee-l2v]

The game has Unreal Engine 5's built-in lumen lighting, and its path tracing is developed based on lumen, so even if path tracing is not turned on, the lighting is also very good.

[@DjPerception91]

r5600x and RTX 3070 plus Lossless Scaling, maxed out Cinematic settings plus Nvidia Ray Tracing on max - Stable 60 fps, without visible artifacts

[@igm1571]

You mean just enable DLSS + FG then you can play the game without problem, Lossless Scaling is similar.

[@oo_doggo4736]

[@abcd-fs2de]

Benchmark is stuttery, on RTX 3070 unplayabe without FSR. Interesting is that with DLSS and FSR there is flickering of shadows. The biggest impact has Global Illumination. I can have some details on Cinematic quality and still have min. 75 FPS with Illumination on Medium with FSR, 1080p.

9:19 not sure about that because my 3070 Ti cannot turn on FG with DLSS, but others like TSR and FSR work fine though.

[@jonathanchaney6140]

I have a i5 8600 and a 1060 6g. I know I need to upgrade both, but which should I upgrade first

[@samgragas8467]

For high FPS low settings (esports or the lowest possible settings on demanding games) the CPU. For low FPS higher settings the GPU.

[@GbrlPlayer]

I would recommend checking cpu and gpu usage of the games you play or want to play and see whats the current bottleneck

[@jonathanchaney6140]

@GbrlPlayer that is a good idea so I did that and the gpu is always at 100 percent while the i5 is at like 40 percent

[@samgragas8467]

@@jonathanchaney6140 Multi-core optimization in extremely hard, most games run on 6 cores but they only fully use 1 or 2. 40% usage could still be a CPU bottleneck but it is not cause 100% GPU usage is certainly a GPU bottleneck.

[@Masaim6]

Damn these UE5 games are something else. My 6700xt can only hit a consistent 60fps on medium in this game.

[@damara2268]

Because RT is turned always on by using UE5 lumen lighting

[@Argoon1981]

If is 60 fps and medium settings at 1080p, in a game using nanite and Lumen, then IMO is good performance! If you turn on the new frame gen 2 update, you will even get extra better image smoothness.

[@Masaim6]

@@damara2268 Lumen is software based rt should be more lightweight than dxr this is 1080p remember. Avatar frontiers of pandora would for example run at over 60fps most of the time on medium. That game also uses software based raytracing.

Too bad I can only achieve 60fps on FSR with Frame Gen on. FSR looks really washed and blurry compared to DLSS but frame gen isn't available on the 3060

The 4090 is not the end-all to be-all. We need the 5090 for 4K, and even better than that, really. Having said that, I think my 7800 XT is going to do alright in the game at 4K, it's just not going to look the absolute best and it will need FSR. Thumbs up!

60-70 FPS on an 8 year old GTX 1060 with acceptable settings, and yet people are complaining the game needs a 4090. It'll get review bombed because no one knows how to adjust graphical settings, like always.

[@albert2006xp]

It'll get review bombed either way because the game got overhyped for what it could possibly be. It's a slow moving car crash at this point.

[@TheVanillatech]

82fps .... at 360p. That's 512x360. That's not just lower than 720p, that's lower than 640x480 which was "standard" back in 1998. And you're saying the card can run the game? With even a relatively small 24" monitor, you could literally see each individual pixel at 360p.

[@albert2006xp]

​@@TheVanillatech To suggest upscaled from that render resolution is equals to that render resolution in general is ridiculous. Plus everyone using that card would be playing at 43 FPS FSR 67% 720p render resolution in this situation with the Medium setting. Which is not going to be an uncommon setting and FPS for that card at this point in most games. Nobody would choose to play at the 360p setting to get 80fps. Their CPU probably wouldn't even let them get 80 fps, in this test the CPU is 7800X3D and completely removed from calculation for benchmark purposes. CPU benchmark would be how you know if the game is optimized. That's usually a bigger issue for old builds. And yes the card can run the game. As it shows in the video.

[@Ardenict]

I assume the game is still on patch 1. Not fully optimized yet like cyberpunk

[@TheVanillatech]

@@Ardenict Yeah give it a few days, and the patch will suddenly change the laws of physics and reality and it'll be playing on an 8 year old entry level gaming card... Hey maybe they'll patch out all the graphics! That'll help! Probably get 200fps in 4k after that! XD
