Guru3d updated their results with the new Nvidia driver.. it doesn't appear to be showing on the article though.. but I caught the 1080p comparison differences:

Have you tried injecting some light sharpening with reshade? Worked absolute wonders with Deus Ex MD.
EDIT: O__o @ those driver improvements
was the launch driver just fubar or something? I hope it fixes the stuttering problem, too.
Shadow cache is fucked. Disable.

That looks much more accurate. Still surprising to see a 1060 behind an Rx 470 though!
Already disabled, every thing in very high maybe i should turn them a bit
No I haven't. Thanks!

Try turning down textures to high. I saw no difference but those are usually the issue when lots of frames but stuttering. The pain of 970

Everything's perfect on my GTX 970 and i7 4770k.
Everything basically all the way up, 1080p, normal rendering method, 1 resolution scaling...
The trick was dealing with shadow quality and reflections. For one reason or another, the difference between high and very high shadow quality is like 30fps, while the difference between variable reflections, and reflections set to just "on", is a whole lot of black flickering on objects.

Which driver version are those benches from? Wanna make sure I get the right one.

This helped a lot, no difference and almost 40 fps more! 120 fps rock solid, also depth of field disabled yay or nah

I've done this but every time I start the game the game defaults to HDR on and the value in that file goes back to 1. How do I get it to default to HDR off?
When HDR is on the colors change, everything is orange and brown. But off the brightness is super bright.

Maybe changing the file and setting it to read only shortly after?

I'll try it.
For an example my game does not look like this

See all those shadows on the first area. My game looks like this

Super bright. If I turn HDR on it gets ugly with crushed blacks and everything becomes orange.

I'm having the same issue with crushed blacks in HDR, from the other thread...
I had no issues at all running the game on first boot in HDR Mode 4K with 5.1 surround on my LG E6 through my Marantz SR5010. Absolutely no crashes at all either, graphics card is GTX1080 using 376.09 driver version.
One thing I will say is that HDR mode is really really dark. When playing through the RE7 demo you can still see things in your peripheral vision, but the exact same spot using HDR in the full game is almost pitch black.
HDR mode does look better than standard though. It's just those crushed blacks.
I will say that performance is pretty good, 60fps at 4K fully maxed with interlaced rendering.
Managed to get it to work but dont have 10 bit as an option

I just got a popup for a game ready driver. What's it gonna break this time?
Like I argue in every thread regarding the PS Pro and Scorpio, they should be targeting framerate above resolution.
I want to play this game at a consistent framerate at 1080p, not... Well... This...
The vast majority of people who both don't game at anything higher than 1080p, and who don't even own the hardware to do that?

Yeah the ini file thing does nothing. Every time I start the game it defaults to HDR and when I turn it off I get super bright mode.
Your game doesn't become orange in HDR? When the game starts off the capcom logo is orange, not yellow. The game menu on the tape recorder is orange not yellow. It's not just the crushed blacks that's an issue

Random question here -- but does anyone know if this will stream with HDR to an nVidia Shield (2017)?

What? You high?
That's a lot of settings you got turn down to reach that.

Damn, dialed back loads of graphical settings, but I still get stuttering from hell every corner I turn. GTX 970. I think my CPU might be bottle necking me... (I7 3770 @ 3.40) 10 GB RAM btw.
Dial it down some more?
I have many problems with my 970 and i7 4770. First the resolution resets every time I quit the game, when I start it again I have this big black bar on the right of the screen and if I quit the game, it fucks up my desktop, forcing me to restart (red is 1366*768). If I switch between full screen and border less windows, the resolution fixes itself in-game, but the desktop is screwed until a reboot. Plus the steam overley is white, only with this game, and only after installing the latest Nvidia driver.

Make sure you are using interlaced rendering too.

HDR doesn't even work correctly on my TV with any other setting than RGB Full. With RGB Full, you can't go above 8-bit, which is probably why I'm getting massive banding. 4:2:2 and 4:2:0 just turn it into a checkerboard of green pixels when HDR kicks in.
Why? Interlaced really messes up the picture. They would be better off changing the in game scaler to lower than 1.

I'm also getting the massive frame drops when turning a corner in Chapter 1. GTX 970, demo and the tutorial area ran flawlessly.
Actually, that is incorrect.Guru3d updated their results with the new Nvidia driver.. it doesn't appear to be showing on the article though.. but I caught the 1080p comparison differences:
Apparently those were results from before the most recent Nvidia drivers, which makes it even more baffling/amusing.

That would make sense since it doesn't show up in the article..
So the answer is simply go back to the last drivers until they get their shit sorted.

I can't get the game to load and the TV to switch fast enough to see the Capcom label at all. The cassette menu is yellow until I "activate" it and then it's orange with yelllw text. Apart from the blacks, everything looks much better in HDR.
Did you adjust the blue/red slider in game options after setting max HDR brightness?

Interlaced works perfect for me at 4K, with no noticeable difference and gains a 20fps boost.
Yuck! I've tried it now in a few different configs. RGB 8 bpc, 4:2:2 10 bpc with no issues (so far). However when I first booted the game, the game screen was crazy bright pink, but this went away when I set the game to my television's native resolution. What's your res set to?

That should be yellow, not orange.
Yes I've adjusted that, nothing works. For sure things look better but the tint is off and crushed blacks are terrible.

I believe any game made before 1997 is "essentially cave man art."
Update:
Turned off shadow cache, put shadows to high and reflections to off, now I can hit 4K 60fps resolution scaling 1 with interlaced rendering. Hdr causes black crush and non hdr is still washed out
The playable area won't fill up the screen Unless at native res of 3840x2160.
Win 10 64bit
I7-3770k
1070
16gb of ram
Newest nvidia drivers as of 1/24.

Scratch what I said. I haven't found a happy place with my settings where the game doesn't come to a complete halt when turning corners.
Absolutely ridiculous performance from this game. The fuck.
Tried turning off shadow cache, lowering everything, reflections off, still these constant framerate drops when the game's like loading in a new area or something. One of these times I'm gonna turn a corner and die because of it.

Woah that gap between the 960 and 970 is huge...
Surprised the 1050 ti AND 1050 beat the 960.
I wonder how awful this game would run on my 670... lol

I'm having similar issues. Game runs really smoothly and then suddenly after an hour of play it goes to shit to the point I need to hard close the game.
Hopefully it gets fixed soon.

How do we know it's supposed to be yellow? I mean, could a design choice not have been made to have it display orange in HDR?

Definitely some memory leak going on here. Regardless of my resolution/texture settings, and even with the new drivers, the game runs flawlessly for 40-ish minutes and then starts to have massive lag spikes whenever I turn a corner or a scripted sequence begins.
I had zero issues running the notoriously demanding Dishonored 2 on this same PC just a month ago, so it isn't the 970 that's to blame.
I turned off shadow cache because some Steam users are saying it's the source of the leak. I'll play for a while longer and see if it changes anything.
Edit: Nope. Shadow Cache wasn't it.
