Far Cry Primal: PC graphics performance
Crafting your own weapons on a large scale Far Cry 5 island

The article is work in progress, Multi-GPU scaling results still need to be added.

We take a look at Far Cry Primal in our usual in-depth ways. That would be tested on the PC gaming wise relative towards graphics card performance with the latest AMD/NVIDIA graphics card drivers. Multiple graphics cards are being tested and benchmarked. We have a look at performance with the newest graphics cards and technologies. We test with the game based on the day-1 release all patched up combined with AMD Radeon Software Crimson 16.2 drivers and for Nvidia their GeForce 362.00 WHQL driver.

A few days ago the console versions have been released, the PC version has just launched. From early reports it's clear that the game is rather graphics demanding in terms quality settings versus your graphics card. In this article we'll try to expose what would be well suited for a PC.

This article will cover benchmarks in the sense of average framerates, we'll look at all popular resolutions scaling from Full HD (1920x1080/1200), WHQD (2560x1440) and of course that big-whopper of a resolution Ultra HD. UHDTV (2160p) is 3840 pixels wide by 2160 pixels tall (8.29 megapixels), which is four times as many pixels as 1920x1080 (2.07 megapixels). Taking place in 10,000 BC, Far Cry Primal fully embraces the core of its predecessors — scavenging to survive against bizarre, chaotic enemies in a wild, unlegislated frontier, except that this time there is no rogue state or crazy totalitarian to facilitate this, it is how the world is. 


Far-cry-primal-12.0


Far Cry Primal is quite unlike any of the previous games in the series, as it throws you back to prehistoric times, when humans lived in primitive tribes and when woolly mammoths and sabre-tooth tigers still roamed the planet You'll play as Takkar and try to save and reunite the Wenja tribe in land of Oros, while facing off against the savage and cannibalistic Udam and the fire worshipping Izila tribes.
