For the past few days we have been nagging Nvidia for a driver, they had nothing available, however, will release a new WHQL driver on Tuesday. Once that driver is out, we'll revalidate the GeForce card results and see if there are any gains to be found in performance. AMD has provided their 18.3.4 driver, which will be released Monday night March 26th CET.
Interesting, so Nvidia cards could perform even better as I see this, AMD cards are already optimized.

Where did you see that?
According to the official system requirements 4K/60fps requires a pair of GTX 1080 in SLI mode. This is in line with Hilberts benchmark results where the stock 1080 only achieves ~40fps.
http://blog.ubi.com/en-GB/far-cry-5-pc-specs-system-requirements-revealed/
Strange seeing a GTX 1080Ti is recommended to play at 3840x2160 when based on the results a GTX 1080 seems sufficient.

I guess it depends on what you find acceptable? A GTX 1080 sits in the 40fps domain at 3840x2160 which I agree is very playable. Most (I believe) 60 fps is the more 'acceptable' norm for that resolution.

Hilbert, what’s the actual individual CPU core usage like in this? Does it max out one CPU core like previous titles or is the workload more evenly distributed across available cores this time?
Great review as always

As it seems 1070 sli / 980ti sli is more like it they are exaggerating by asking 2 1080.

Damn, the graphics! I swear it gets so much better every year. I seems it was yesterday i played gta vice city and was amazed at the sunrays popping in. Far cry 3 isnt so old and just look at this, its leaps forward! Soon we´ll have photorealistic graphics. Damn.

Gangsta on one core, sweet on the others. No, fair point. I just added a graph to the CPU chapter displaying that. One core gets hit the hardest, but overall there is some proper threading going on. The screenshot is in-game, not the benchmark.

Well since a 1080Ti cannot do it and there isn't anything better (not counting luxurious Titan that very very few can afford) I'd say that 1080 SLI is a sound requirement But I would sure love for a 1080Ti to do 4K/60fps in all games.

Besides the water, it is very hard to see difference b/w Low quality and Ultra Quality.

The PC version supports HDR. The ON/OFF toggle will become available in the Menu only when using a HDR capable display.
Games need to support HDR in the first place, turning it on in Windows will do nothing if the game doesn't support it. As far as I know the PC version doesn't support it, but the console version does.

Really? I haven’t seen any site report that or Ubisoft. The only time I’ve seen it mentioned is for consoles. I obviously have a HDR screen, otherwise I wouldn’t have chosen the PS4 Pro version.

Wait so a normal 1050 runs ultra at 34fps

Not as strange as you might think. Remember, hyper-threading does not run tasks in parallel. Depending how the threads are allocated, you can actually lose performance because one thread could be waiting for another one to finish. When you have all threads running in parallel (as they would be forced to do in a 4c/4t CPU) you can't encounter this affinity/scheduler issue.
I'm a little bit surprised this game wasn't optimized for HT/SMT, let alone more threads, when you consider console hardware.
