Assassins Creed: Valhalla graphics perf benchmark review - Image Quality and System requirements

Image quality settings and benchmark system

For this game, we use a run with Ultra image quality settings, the highest possible quality mode. Games typically should be able to run in the 60 FPS range combined with your monitor resolution you matched your graphics card too. From there onwards you can enable/disable things if you need more performance or demand even better game rendering quality. There's a lot of features you can configure, we recommend you to stick to Very High or ultra and leave it at that. For Ultra Quality 6GB to 8GB of VRAM is recommended. 

 

     

  

Keep an eye on the resolution scaler, this should be set at 100%. We noticed while swapping out and exchanging graphics cards that this value would randomly alter itself.

 

  

Test environment (system specification)

Our graphics card test system is based on a sixteen-core AMD Ryzen 9 5950X processor on the X570 chipset platform. We use Windows 10 all patched up. Each graphics card runs on the same PC with the same operating system clone.

System Spec

  • Ryzen 9 5950X
  • X570 (ASUS Crosshair VIII HERO)
  • 16GB DDR4 3600 MHz CL14
  • NVMe M.2. SSD

Graphics drivers

  • GeForce graphics cards use the 457.30 (download). 
  • Radeon graphics cards we used the latest AMD Radeon Adrenalin 20.11.x driver (download). 
Our test PC was outfitted with this set up to prevent and remove CPU bottlenecks that could influence high-end graphics card GPU scores. Let's head onwards to the next page where we'll look at some screenshots and then start measure several monitor resolutions in terms of relative performance versus quality settings.
  

 

 

Ingame measurement or internal benchmark?

 

 

Wide Quad HD -  Ultra Quality - the GeForce RTX 3070 -  the internal benchmark is very representative for your gameplay, but we decided to skip it due to stutters. Being DX12 Valhalla likes threading and CPU cores. We advise six-cores or more for optimal gameplay.

 

 

Wide Quad HD -  Ultra Quality - the GeForce RTX 3070 -  in-game running through a village. We focus on the scenery mostly of course. 

 

So again, the game has a built-in benchmark. Overall it runs quite similarly to your average game performance. It however shows a lot of stuttering, ergo we decided to skip it and measure in-game. For consistency, we'd normally have opted the internal benchmark though, as with scripted scenes you can very precisely measure performance. So we tested in-game, with heavy on the GPUI scenery. make no mistake though, results will vary per scene. In villages, the FPS will be higher, close to water much lower, and so on.

Gigabyte G1.Assassin 2 review
We test the Gigabyte G1.Assassin 2. It's the motherboard that is both loved and hated for it's gun themed design. Regardless of what you guys might thing, Gigabyte knows and certainly appreciates the fact that everybody is talking about their products. The G1.Assassin 2 motherboard comes loaded with some very nice features, much like it predecessors it has an embedded Killer E2100 NIC, said to deliver better networking performance to hardcore gamers. The board itself comes with three PCI Express x16 slots for 3-way CrossFireX and SLI support . Gigabyte also added an integrated Creative X-Fi PCI Express sound card featuring Nichicon MUSE audio capacitors, included is a WIFI and Bluetooth network card.
