AMD takes the lead in the new Forza Horizon 4 DX12 benchmark
Gamers around the world will get their first look into the big, beautiful world of Forza Horizon 4 in a free DirectX 12 demo and benchmark available.
So AMD was quite happy about the below, so happy that they send out a press release with the following:
Low-level APIs like DirectX 12 allow GPUs to deliver faster performance with lower overhead, and Radeon graphics cards are taking full advantage to deliver more consistent frames, reduced latency and more power efficiency. AMD worked closely with Playground Games to give Radeon players the best performance in this demo, with the AMD Radeon RX Vega 64 graphics card beating the GeForce GTX 1080 at 1080p, 1440p, and native 4K.
Here’s an early look at how Radeon RX Graphics handle Forza Horizon 4 at 1080p, 1440p, and native 4K;
- RX Vega 64 ran 12-20% faster than the GTX 1080
- RX Vega 56 ran 2-12% faster than the GTX 1070Ti
- RX Vega 56 ran 13-22% faster than the GTX 1070
- RX 580 ran 12-16% faster than the GTX 1060 (6GB)
- RX 570 ran 46-58% faster than the GTX 1050Ti
You can test the performance for yourself in the free demo today.

We all know that AMD's GPU's has the horsepower if the Devs choose to use it.

tested with friends in 4k at maximum settings. Vega goes forward only at lower resolutions.

No vega 64, no gtx 1070, no gtx 1070ti.
Vega 56 only 3 fps slower than gtx1080. I can't get what you are saying.

Willing to bet my Vega64 will smash that 1080. To try to compare the Vega64 to the 1080Ti when it's quite definitely not a direct comparison is disingenuous at best, falsifying results at worst. Vega64 both Air and Liquid are positioned to be parallel to the GTX 1080. Vega56 to the GTX1070 and 1070Ti to some extent.
Downloading it now, will post results once complete.

Lies, Vega 64 on average in EU costs 500-600 euro.
@korn87 Vega 56 isn't Vega 64.

Considering the lead platform is AMD based X box this isn't really surprising. If anything it's impressive Nvidia being this close.
Anyway compare when Nvidia release game ready drivers.

Just checked the prices on Scan to get a rough idea if this was true. It looks like Vega 64 and GTX 1080 are priced almost exactly the same with the GTX 1080i being almost 30% more expensive than either of the slower cards.
Cheapest custom Vega 64 - £459.98
Cheapest custom GTX 1080 - £459.98
Cheapest custom GTX 1080i - £599.99

Good to see AMD can finally compete with a two and a half year old GPU that’s literally being replaced in a matter of days.
Navi needs to be something special, they’re slipping to far back at this point.

Been competing just fine for a year now. Oddly seeing that DX12 is starting to come forth in proper support, it'll likely last quite a bit better than a GTX1080. Of course there's edge cases for each but your comment is more than a little ignorant or fanboish, take your pick.
