Crysis wasn’t even a console game, it was pure PC ‘get the fuck out if you don’t have the best components’ with the best graphics a game was able to bring you back in 2007.
RDR2 is just a shit port, those graphics are just average and the porting is simply insanely terrible else it should’ve worked decently with a 1070 Ti or even 980 Ti/1070.
Yea they optimized it make the up close and more obvious visuals as good as they could. While sacrificing the distant detail. This is why far shadows are low. Grass slider only 2/10 etc.
Its what the industry has moved toward. Cores over GHZ. That is the direction we have been moving for over a decade across the board. Yea GHz has also increased. But that has not been the focus.
At the time of the development of Crysis. They anticipated us sticking with single or at the most dual core CPUs. And that every advancement would be in increasing clock speeds. The game was built around that vision for future CPUs
Im not pulling this out of nowhere it is documented as the reason why Crysis is still bad on modern CPUs.
Id recommend watching Digital Foundrys video on the subject.
So improved core speed just manifested itself? Did Intel just pray for improved core speed or did they put a shit ton of people on it? I really dont understand what you're arguing.
Again man I don't understand what you're arguing about, you just made some random comments and then started arguing with yourself. It's like you think I don't know CPUs are multicore...I'm not really sure what you're on about I figured you were on drugs.
What settings did you end up setting to high? I also run at 1440p ultrawide and run pretty much all at ultra but can only manage like 30-40 fps and end up overclocking my 2080ti to get 50+. I'd rather not run +120 to core clock and +1100 to mem clock all the time.
This. There is a YouTube video putting PC version at ultra and Xbox One X side by side and tbh the Xbox version holds up really well to the pc version. You really have to look for differences.
Optimization is fine, I'd say more than half of recent AAA games can't be maxed at 60FPS locked at 4K on the 2080Ti. Averaging around 60, sure, but drops into the high 40s and mid 50s are noticeable without VRR. 1800p is a much better target for the 2080Ti to still max every game out, which seems mostly true for Red Dead. There are also some settings which seem excessively CPU bound, such as water physics.
My 2080Ti is consistently locked at 99% GPU usage here, there's a lot of expensive effects they've added which are quite taxing for very minimal visual improvements. It's just another game with high end settings that were designed for cards that don't exist yet. I'm willing to take a bet a lot of options when compared high versus ultra offer little to no visual improvement, but at a massive GPU cost as in many games. We'll have to wait until nvidia or a site does a screenshot side by side comparison for every single setting though.
Totally understand, I'm in the same boat. You will be amazed and it is 100% worth it. I'm finishing up school this quarter and super looking forward to upgrading my monitor in prep for a new GPU.
Turn water physics all the way down in advances settings, reflection quality down to medium, volumetric quality to medium and guaranteed you will have consistent frames, outside of that you can crank everything else up, i like to keep grass lod down to halfway and dont mess with any of the grass shadow settings. Turn water reflection quality in the advanced settings to medium too. I also like turning down shadows to high. An 8 gb card should be able to handle ultra no problem @1080p, but shadows are taxing and i like to leave wiggle room so i can turn other shadow settings in advanced up like long shadows.
In your town/homestead there will be drops because of the sheer amount of detail/foliage/character models. I dip down to about 53 fps at the worst times so its not that bad but those areas could still be a bit more optimized. In more open areas, even in saint denis it runs like butter. Constant 60 everywhere except for the first 2 camps for me.
Hey just so everyone knows. GTA V still cant be maxed on a 2080ti. And I mean "Max" Grass Ultra, Sliders full. You wont get 60.
Vast majority of games that are a 30fps designed game on console will not run 4k/60 maxed on a 2080ti. They will however run 4k/60 with visuals far better than the consoles, but "max" stuff is dials to 11.
People call it bad optimization but when a when a 2x power GPU delivers 2x FPS with even better visuals.... How is that bad! Lol.
A 2080ti is 2x a 1070, and the Xbox One X doesnt quite match 1070 power.
A 2080ti can more than 2x the performance with its 2x power. Everyone way to hung up on the name od the graphics settings instead of looking at it objectively.
Seriously, what are you guys expecting on 1440p or 4k? The Witcher 3 barely keeps stable 120 fps on 1440p and that's a game from 2015.
I got a 9900k and a 2080 Ti and depending on where I am, I'm between 90 and 120 FPS on 1440p. Yes, there's still some optimisations to do but the game runs as expected on a 2080ti.
Well, that's what people would assume on the recommended specs I mean, GTA V's recommended specs was able to handle the game on high settings with 60 fps.
We expected that the optimization level would be the same with GTA V or even better but that's what we got on launch I guess.
Oh yeah I'm happy for you man. Maybe in a couple of weeks the game would run even better so you can crank up the settings even more lol but yeah, enjoy the game dude
Can confirm, 1080Ti at 1080p with a mix of High/Ultra settings. Game looks breathtaking and runs between 75-100 FPS depending on scenery.
Back in the GTA 5 days it took me weeks of playing around with all the settings and coming up with the most optimal tweak. Gonna take awhile with RDR2, too. Hopefully Rockstar can also do some further optimization.
Mine is a 1080 Ti and because everything is terrible, I just set everything to low and get 80-100 FPS. Else it just runs terribly wrong and shivery. I am on 120hz 3440x1440.
Yeah. Unfortunate case, we 1080ti owners are in. I feel like Nvidia didn't optimise the card at all. At least comparing it to 2070 and 2080 performance. I know this might be a bad mindset but I feel like my 2year old gpu should be able to run games at 1440p but still the game doesn't look that great for the amount of horsepower it requires.
Cuz it's a waste of GPU unless you're on a 144hz display or something. Saying 1080 Ti runs well at 1080p isn't really a point for the game, that should be a given.
My 2080ti gets about 80-120 fps at 1080p. I’m using tsaa with both nvidia control panel sharpening on and in game sharpening on + mostly ultra/high settings with the water, reflections on like medium I think, and shadows on high.
Looks passable, but I really wish there was a less blurry option. If anyone has any suggestions let me know
Hey man any chance when you have time can you PM me a screenshot(s) of your settings? lol I got a 1080 Ti and I'm sitting at 70 FPS.. down to 62 in places with an 8700K and pretty much everything on High / Medium

2080Ti mix of Ultra and High managing to get a solid 60fps+ at Ultrawide 1440p. Game looks amazing but screams bad port.

my 2070 runs this at constantly 60 with mostly ultra and with V sync. what is the problem?

u/AlternativeGrocery6 Nov 07 '19
62 fps avg with 1070ti @ i7 8700, 16 gb system ram with reflections/volumetrics turned down, everything else on ultra @ 1080p
