For those interested, I have just added some Ryzen CPU results.

Do you need a CPU that has SSE4.1 or 4.2 or whatever old CPU's lack? Have a Phenom 965BE running around 4.0GHZ and no issues on most games.

Vega doing great in this title Nvidia will likely get a little faster with a driver update or two but overall performance is great out of the box. It's nice to see lower end cards like the RX460, 1050 and 1050ti handle ultra 1080p that good. Set the game to mostly high settings and go a little light on AA and even budget PC's will have great IQ.

Thanks for the write up Hilbert.
This game has gone on the list to buy me thinks ๐

Is this tested with 18.3.4?

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.

Hilbert, whatโs 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 ๐

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 weยดll have photorealistic graphics. Damn.

Sub par non-gaming graphics cards doing rather well wouldn't you say? ๐

Congrats to Hilbert and to everyone else.
Guys we made it. We are on Forbes.
