We take a look at Gears of War 5 (2019) in our usual in-depth ways. That would be tested on the PC gaming wise relative towards graphics card performance with the latest AMD/NVIDIA graphics card drivers. Multiple graphics cards are being tested and benchmarked. We have a look at performance with the newest graphics cards and technologies.

Wow, the inconsistencies. TPU
Sounds like a classic case of limited output range. Happens with some displays when you update the Nvidia driver. Make sure driver settings as follows:

Well i watched the benchmark video and i can only assume that YT is impacting on that video because the game looks just terrieble in that benchmark video, the vibrante colours and lighting effects of the game look all grey and dull for some reason, what is going on there then, is YT messing it up in compression possibly, and even picking 4k to watch the video in does not help, the game look way better than anything in that benchmark on the XBX so i would have assumed a PC with a RTX2080 would look bee knees on ultra settings, and not so grey and washed out as it does in that video, i mean the snow levels are eye popping in the game so i have no idea what is going on with that benchmark video.

Its actually more likely not that setting at all, but
Since i've noticed youtube will stream limited range with hardware accelerated decoding.

I watched this on my tv , not on the PC, 4k HDR YT via the Tv app.
change your driver video output to Full, your screen is full but your driver is playing the video back in limited w/Acceleration.

This is an insult, a $1300 graphics card can just do barely 60fps in 4k.
I was expecting more from a 2080 TI.

You dont need to put everything on ultra.

@samir72
and?
what has the chip/gpu maker to do with the game?
if the next top card is 1500$, do you expect it to do 8K@120Hz?
lol

Say what? My 1070ti gives me 120fps + on max settings @1080p. What are you even talking about???
EDIT: Ok I've looked at the benchmarks and I know Hilbert usually does a good job, but something is wrong here. I have an 8600k @4.8ghz, 3200mhz RAM and an non-OC'd 1070ti, and I don't ever drop below 90fps, on max settings (yes, everything maxed). More often than not I'm sitting at 120-140fps! On a 1070ti! Wtf.... The benchmark is giving me Titan XP results....something is definitely not right with this article.
"Aside from a random occasional stutter and some FPS drops" Something I've yet to see, AT ALL, even in the most intense scenes and even while playing Co op. I and my friend have not experienced ANY fps drops, I monitor mine closely and am sensitive to such things, also stutters are non-existent in the game, period. I'm convinced something is inherently wrong with the system used to perform this benchmark.
I did not expect the game to not hit 120fps at 1080p with the top high end cards.

An insult? This is one of the best optimised games of the last few years. 4k /60fps is simply unrealistic at this point in time and little more than a gimmick for bragging rights.
Also "one of the best PC ports" - Hilbert - this is not a port.

I find Gears 5 maxed out which does look better than Gears 4 did maxed out plays also more smoother than Gears 4 did. Its too bad they didn't patch in that optimization for Gears 4!

I have to say the game looks stunning in places, playing 35" ultrawide with 1080Ti

What is your minimum fps setting? This game uses dynamic resolution to keep the fps above the minimum fps setting. You may have selected 90 fps as your minimum fps.
This article is fine, it gives the same performance as TPU.
It's really not fine at all. Tell me why I'm getting Titan XP performance then? And my mate with a 1080 is having similar results?
And I know about min fps, mine is set to none. So no. No dynamic resolution happening here. As I said, FPS never drops below 90ish. And Soars above 140. I can go do a benchmark and take some screenshots. But this article shows quite low fps compared to what my friends and I are experiencing. It's not that the article shows BAD fps, but it's simply that I am seeing waaaay higher. If it was just a little off, I wouldn't be concerned.

Because TC haven't optimised the game on geforce.

Ummmmm I'm on a 1070ti, that's a Geforce fyi. And where do you see the game is unoptimised for Nvidia cards? Ummmmmm

The Coalition has pretty much said they've only optimized for AMD, and has worked with AMD on the game. That being said, Unreal Engine 4 has definitely always shown a liking to Nvidia hardware.

I call this BS. Why 2080ti cannot 4k 60fps ultra in AC:Odyssey then after 100 patches? Just not enough horsepower. For example 1300$ does not translate to 1300fps HD or 130fps 4K for instance, life is unforgiving. GoW5 is as optimized as it can get. It is smooth. No need for extra baby care.

AC Origins / AC Odyssey Anvil engine is far from optimized, it could run much faster if they spent some time optimizing it (Special K Injector is the example, how fps can be improved)

No. Issue is in clock. Fiji is robust, but not all parts are appropriately capable.
Therefore RX-580 with higher clock pulls ahead on lower resolution where shader brute force is not as needed.
But on higher resolutions Fiji is well ahead of RX-580 even while later has double VRAM size.
VRAM limitations would be best tested on cards that have multiple memory configuration. Like RX-580 4/8G and GTX 1060 3/6G.
Apparently, any single high amount VRAM card can be used for test as long as you can edit and sign vBIOS that will have reduced memory addressing. But I think both AMD and nVidia are not making vBIOS editing easy on new cards.
