3DMark DirectX Raytracing Feature Test & Port Royal Bench Thread.

Just tried to run this again as the new driver adds better support ^ hence above score! Mine just hangs on 'collecting system info' googled it, fair few are having problems with it.

Knock back your overclock a bit as the new drivers work the cards harder at a lower clockspeed.:)

Here is one I did earlier on the RTX Titans where I got a big increase in score at a lower clockspeed.


Normal Port Royal run.

Port Royal run with DLSS off then on.

Interestingly both RTX and DLSS work fine in SLI on Port Royal, if only there were some games that could do it.

As to image quality it is very difficult to tell the difference in Port Royal when DLSS is off and on. It is a big improvement on the Final Fantasy bench where it is obvious when DLSS is being used.

I actually thought that with DLSS on it looked more vibrant and sharper, could just be the placebo effect but was actually more impressed with DLSS on

Same, image quality with DLSS on was a vast improvement even at 4K. 62fps at 4K with 2x 2080 Ti's vs 34fps with DLSS off :eek:

I think what some people are seeing as image improvement is in part down to the higher fps with DLSS.

This is something I notice with the ordinary Port Royal without using DLSS when comparing a single card to SLI.

Having said that when using SLI it is hard to tell when DLSS is off or on when looking at image quality as the fps are quite good (85fps v 120fps).
