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.

See how UE4 can perform good on amd cards if handled right. Agreed with @vbetts even last gen midrange cards will do just fine.

No CPU scaling?
Most of the reviews I've seen shows significant differences from 2-6+
Edit: nvm 9900K boosts pretty high and the other reviews weren't using the same cpu 4/8-8/16 seem to be on par

Looking at 1440p and how rx590 is beating 1660ti smells like a vram limitation. Does game have even insane texture setting beside ultra?

This phrase : "Multiple graphics cards are being tested and benchmarked", appears twice in the second paragraph.

I did not expect the game to not hit 120fps at 1080p with the top high end cards.

Even that this isnt the forum for ppl asking how to turn on their pc
,
i would still like to see results for 1 or 2 res with vsync on.
It's still used by a lot of ppl that dont like tearing, and it does lower fps by a noticeable amount.
Maybe not when testing W, but at least for games and lets say 1080p..

Check the review again, there's a known issues with the 1660ti and 415.30 drivers.

It does show the top of the Nvidia card selection is pretty strong when Nvidia could use an AMD sponsored game in their own marketing material no problem.
While this is a sponsored title by AMD, it's still an Unreal Engine 4 game which definitely favors Nvidia. Although either system you aren't going to have an issue running it.

there is not a known issue with the 1660ti and 43x drivers, and we can't assume otherwise until both hardware vendors are able to run the software with the same api features enabled.

Not being utilised fully? Fiji has 8 ACEs if I remember rightly? Same as Hawaii?

I mean to say 430x, not 415x. Did you not see Hilbert's update on the chart pages? "* We're aware of an issue with the 1660 Ti, the driver (.30) is doing something weird at Full HD and WQHD." Whe else would a non ti and 590 be giving the same performance?

That was written by Hilbert/reviewer, and his observation.
Doesn't translate to "Theres a known issue in the driver".
Theres some weird ass behavior with turing in general in this game.
the 2070 is being beaten by the 2060 super for instance.... o_O
they should either be sitting fairly even with the 2070 edging ahead.
should also be ahead of the 1080

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.

Tried Gears 4 on my 2080Ti and although the benchmark showed a steady 60fps result at 4K, playing the game was a different story meaning I couldn't maintain 60fps at all times at Ultra settings. I guess some tweaking is necessary after all.

This game uses some sort of DRS below your minimum framerate setting. I have mine set to 60 fps. With my 1070 in 4k ultra in the benchmark, a little over 50% of the frames are rendered in full 4k. The rest a lower res. Which improves performance. Instead 29 fps, I get 57fps on ultra. Haven't seen a 2080ti render every frame in 4k even.

change your driver video output to Full, your screen is full but your driver is playing the video back in limited w/Acceleration.
