DX11: The Witcher III Wild Hunt

The Witcher III: Wild Hunt

Wild Hunt has improved on several aspects from past games. Combat revolves around an action role-playing game system combined with the use of magic. The fighting system has been completely revamped. Wild Hunt introduces some new mechanics, such as witcher-sense, combat on horseback, and at sea, swimming underwater and using a crossbow. Additionally, Geralt can now jump, climb, and vault over smaller obstacles. Our measurements are taken in game. Our settings are Ultra quality with AA enabled. Please find an overview of the exact settings here. Hairworks is DISABLED to objectively compare between AMD and Nvidia cards. Our test run has enabled:

• DX11
• Ultra mode
• AA enabled
• 16x AF enabled
• SSAO enabled
• Nvidia hairworks OFF
• Other settings ON

Note: we have updated the Witcher III charts for Ampere, the initial test results showed a performance that was odd. After reinstalling the game and applying the original configuration, the performance normalized. From the looks of things a configuration error somehow kicked in, which now is taking properly.
