F1 2017: PC graphics performance benchmark review

The game performance looks promising, but after the last major letdown by Codemasters, i.e. Dump 4, I think it's better for me to pass.

Thanks for the performance insight!

Tho, I gotta wonder why you cover 3.5 generations of AMD cards yet only a single Nvidia generation? There is only Pascal in the list, while AMD gets both Polaris iterations, Fury and Vega benched. It is kind of sad to see that Maxwell got dropped so early, especially when the 970 was such a (in)famous card that sold really well. According to steam, the GTX 960 and 970 combined make up more than 10% of the steam user base: http://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey/videocard/

Would be great if you could still include the most relevant cards of the 2-3 previous generations for each vendor as well. I know benching is a lot of work, but I'd really appreciate it if you did

thanks Hilly!

EDIT: Somehow missed that 980 Ti in the graph... But still

Good read. Not my cup of tea but I enjoy the article and insight. However, on page 8 the graph shows DX11 while your text says DX12. Any chance you will be doing performance analysis in a few weeks when Project CARS 2 comes out?

The last F1 games i really enjoyed and got into was F1 Championship Edition 2006 on the PS3, that was just awesome, and F1 2013 on the PC was also quite good, but after that they just felt meh to be honest.(just noticed F1 2013 and all it's dlc are gone from steam, what has happened there?)
