MSI Radeon RX 6650 XT Gaming X review - Formula 1 and Watch Dogs: Legion (RSR)

Formula 1 2021 and  Watch Dogs: Legion (RSR)

In addition to Raytracing results, we now need to consider the performance gains that can be obtained through the use of technologies such as DLSS and RSR. It is not practical anymore to evaluate all games in this manner due to the additional data sets and time necessary. For example, if we need to test ten games at three different resolutions, we will need to run approximately 30 benchmarks. Raytracing each game adds another 30 test runs, and then further result from sets with DLSS, for example, add another 30 test runs on top of that. As a result of the use of technologies such as Raytracing, RSR/FSR, and DLSS over the past two years, the data sets have increased from 30 test runs to nearly 100 test runs. As a result, we've chosen a number of rasterized DX11/12 games, a couple of pure raytraced games, and then included some FSR and/or DLSS results on a separate page for comparison.

To be able to understand the charts:

• Dark blue is the original score (without RSR enabled).
• Ligh blue. The native solution is UHD. We can now select Full HD or WQHD to render at that resolution and scale upwards to Ultra HD. So light blue Full HD and WQHD are displayed and upscaled to Ultra HD. Unfortunately for the 6600 series, marginally increases only.
