I do appreciate the detailed specs and performance though.

 

[Allnamestakenlol]

Love it when they list an Ultra recommendation that is 30fps.

Edit: Assuming because they know 4k 60 is likely not doable for whatever reason with anything less than a 30xx card.

 

[kretos]

1060 for 30fps? fuck off ubi with these piece of shit ports

now i will wait a year for 25$ gold edition on PS5

 

[LordCBH]

Why does enthusiast list a 2080 Super but Ultra lists just a 2080?

 

[diffusionx]

So if the XSX game is 4k/60fps, what is the preset? Medium?

Are you seriously fucking complaining that an almost 5 year old card can't run a 2020 game on HIGH, not low, not medium, not mixed settings but all HIGH at more than 30 fps?

More likely $9.99 bargain bin.

 

[Aesius]

Pro tip: Turn down volumetric clouds from Ultra to High. See minimal visual difference, gain 15-20+ FPS.

[Mister Wolf]

Humble yourself and bump those settings down to high.

And still play at 30 fps.

Go you.

 

[Bonfires Down]

Well, the game runs at probably medium settings on a PS4 with 7 year old mid/low range specs so yes, I would hope for a bit more.

 

[kretos]

And still play at 30 fps.

Go you.

it's 60fps on PS5

 

[GiJoint]

So if the XSX game is 4k/60fps, what is the preset? Medium?

Probably a mix of medium and high

 

[GHG]

it's 60fps on PS5

I don't doubt it will be.

When looking at the sky.

 

[Maddux4164]

I don't doubt it will be.

When looking at the sky.

I mean, they’ve already said it’ll be 4K/60 on both the PS5 and series X

 

[Thugnificient]

I mean, they’ve already said it’ll be 4K/60 on both the PS5 and series X

They’ll target it. Whether they hit it most of the time or not is up in the air.

 

[GHG]

I mean, they’ve already said it’ll be 4K/60 on both the PS5 and series X

At what settings? Low?

How do you think they will be getting double the framerate of a similarly specced PC at the same resolution?

 

[RedVIper]

1060 for 30fps? fuck off ubi with these piece of shit ports

Pretty sure you can get 60 if you just turn down a few settings chill.

 

[Krappadizzle]

Power of the cloud for MSFT and FP32 for Sony would be my guess.

 

[TGO]

At what settings? Low?

 

[VCL]

so 1440p@60fps on Xbox series x as a minimum

 

[scoobidoo112]

My 8700K/1080TI/16GB build:

 

[Krappadizzle]

My 8700K/1080TI/16GB build:

1080ti is the new 8800GT.

 

[scoobidoo112]

1080ti is the new 8800GT.

Funny that you mention it, my previous graphics card was an 8800GTX (with a C2D E6600 / 8GB). Lasted a very long time indeed.

 

[Maddux4164]

At what settings? Low?

Obviously it wouldn’t be at ultra high. That’ll be the assumed “performance mode”.


I also assume they’ll be a fidelity mode as well and will get the consoles 4k/30 or 1440p/60 or something like that.

 

[Kdad]

What specs do I need on Stadia?

 

[RoboFu]

Pc master wallet! Lol.
My pc is exactly the ultra specs which means it will never run ultra settings lol.

 

[NT80]

As per usual I expect there being incredibly inefficient with the power of a PC compared to a console. Why do I need a whopping great GTX 1080 and i7 just to reach 1080p and 60fps at high settings?

 

[Stuart360]

Yep this was posted in the XSX Power Meme thread. I should be good for 1080p/60 High, and i'll take it!.

 

[Soulblighter31]

You're going with the secret sauce/coding to the metal thing ? There's no magic involved in the way games run on consoles. If it runs in a certain way there, it will run the same way on PC. We need to wait for the game to come out to see

 

[martino]

1080ti is the new 8800GT.

1080ti owner here but i fear mesh shader consequences

 

[MiguelItUp]

Looks like it'll run just fine for me on my PC. I may very well hop into this, it's definitely looking better and better!

 

[Zathalus]

So maxed out 4k60FPS would be a 3090, roughly speaking.

Just saying "i7" is meaningless. The i7 they listed isn't even a match for a current gen i3.

Also the 1080 on par with a 2060 super which is a soon to be a last gen mid range card.

Then there's the fact that it will be running on high settings.

So much for "whopping".

They always get way more out of consoles than there specs suggest since there made for just 1 system. Just look at the best looking console games vs the specs. and price.

Alex from digital foundry may enlighten us with such knowledge.

The GTX 1080 and i7 6700 came out 2 to 3 years after the PS4/X1 and how much more powerful were they than the equivalent parts in the consoles and how much did they cost? This game is coming out on PS4/X1 and this is supposedly what it takes to hit 1080p 60fps at high settings. On the chart high settings seem to be in the middle.

No. They dont. You cant make above what the specs allow you. I thought the secret sauce talk was over years ago. They learn to better leverage what they have and other tricks, but they dont do black magic. You could absolutely do the same thing they do on consoles with similar pc specs if that was your goal

 

[Monkeygourmet]

Queue lots of PC owners whinging in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1...

I'm not talking about any secret sauce I'm talking about how there developing for 1 spec on console and how you always see better and better results over time while the console stays the same. PC requirements go up and up over the gen. If the PS4 and X1 had a GTX 1080 and an i7 6700 what kind of consoles games would we be looking at now? Wasn't the PS5 GPU compared with a 2600 super to a 2070 on Digital Foundry?

 

[Dampf]

This still looks like a current gen title and performs like a next gen title with RTX.

Yeah, unoptimized again. Anvil has to be replaced.

It goes up with a computer because you do much more with every game than on console, resolution wise and details wise. Remember how Red Dead 2 for example runs on consoles at a mix of mostly medium and low and some settings are lower than the lowest possible on pc. Sure, one spec helps get the most out of it, but its always gonna stay within those specs. Its nothing out of the ordinary really

same is usually true for shadow and AO quality.

You should go play RDR2 on a PS4-equivalent GTX 750 Ti then.

instead of running the game on a 2 gb card from half a decade ago, how about i run red dead on a radeon 580, the xbox x equivalent. What do you know, its like for like with how it runs on the console. Who would've thought.

 

[xrnzaaas]

Looks like the game is poorly optimized, because it's not exactly a stunning looking title.

 

[GymWolf]

It's gonna run like shit at launch exactly like origins and odissey, cpu at 100% while looking into a wall here we go

What are the rest of the specs? A better comparison is with the base console One X/PS4 that the game was made for rather than the mid gen refresh which is also tied to the base system. Also how representative of games in general is RDR2 of optimization/efficiency between console specs and PC equivalent specs? The PC version of RDR 2 was worked on for up to a year after it came to consoles.

 

[recursive]

1060 for 30fps? fuck off ubi with these piece of shit ports

now i will wait a year for 25$ gold edition on PS5

Lazy clickbait reaponse.
