Far Cry 5 for PC Benchmarked with almost 30 graphics cards
PC graphics performance/analysis review for Windows 10

* Review updated with GeForce 391.35 driver results

We have a new Windows PC graphics performance review ready for you here at Guru3D, Far Cry 5 for Windows PC is being tested relative towards graphics card performance with the latest AMD/NVIDIA graphics card drivers. Many graphics cards are being tested and benchmarked. We have a look at performance with the newest graphics cards and technologies.

Far Cry 5 is an interesting title, most of them these days have NVIDIA written over them, this round however it is an AMD Radeon launch title, AMD will also bundle the game with select purchases (pre-build system with Radeon RX Vega 64, Radeon RX Vega 56 or Radeon RX 580 graphics cards). AMD claimed to have worked closely with Ubisoft to ensure that gamers can enjoy Far Cry 5 with an proper image quality, high frame rates, and low latency. The game will even support several advanced Radeon RX Vega-specific features, including:

Rapid Packed Math – Doubles the rate of compute to allow for faster physics and compute calculations (on Vega GPUs)
Shader Intrinsics – Allows direct game to hardware access on Radeon RX cards to extract more performance from the GPU
Radeon FreeSync 2 – Brings low-latency, high-brightness pixels and a wide color gamut to High Dynamic Range (HDR) content for PC displays

Ubisoft also partnered up with names like Corsair, their RGB custom PC, and peripheral lighting integration is synced with Far Cry 5. Set in America, a first for the franchise, Far Cry 5 offers players total freedom to navigate a serene-looking yet deeply twisted world as the new junior deputy of fictional Hope County, Montana. Players must join the local resistance to take down a fanatical cult by any means necessary, be it shotgun, slingshot, or semi-truck. Far Cry 5 players on PC will be able to experience a whole new layer of immersion via their Corsair RGB products, which will dynamically adjust to more than 35 in-game lighting interactions. Good stuff, but you're here for actual in-depth game performance. Well, let's get this review started then.

We'll test the game on the PC platform relative towards graphics card performance with the AMD/NVIDIA graphics card drivers. Multiple graphics cards are being tested and benchmarked with the latest cards such as the GeForce GTX 10 series included as well as the latest Radeon RX series 500 and Vega graphics cards. You are going to need a reasonably modern PC with at least a mainstream graphics card to run the game nicely. We test with the game based on the final release for PC / Windows from this week, all patched up combined with latest AMD Radeon Adrenalin and Nvidia drivers.

This article will cover benchmarks in the sense of average framerates, we'll look at all popular resolutions scaling from Full HD (1920x1080/1200), WQHD (2560x1440) and of course 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). We'll test close to 30 graphics cards with this game.
