They didn't mention if MSAA was on or off.

Previous article said with no MSAA it ran fine.

Yeah, this is the thing. All this info can be a bit misleading, as there is nothing stopping you from having a mixture of settings. It is not like there is just Ultra, Very High, High, Medium, Low presets and that is it. You can probably leave most stuff Ultra/Very High and just turn off a few settings like MSAA, Temporal Anti-Aliasing, Contact Hardening Shadows, Depth of Field, Motion Blur etc. Do that and your fps will likely double or more...

This is what I do in other games, turn off useless tat like Depth of Field, Motion Blur straight away. Then lower AA or turn it off. Boom, game is suddenly playable at 4K :)

So many people get confused about 4K thinking it is too hard to run. But if you think about it, you need less AA in 4K than you would do in 1440P. That right there is a fps boost. Recently I run Rise of the Tomb Raider on max settings but with no AA and turned off the useless tat mentioned above and guess what, it ran smoothly and looked gorgeous, same for Just Cause 3 :D

Please tell me this is a joke. 49fps minimum on very high NOT ultra and at bloody 1080p on a 1070:confused::mad:

Very high = Ultra,its very clear from results,Hight>Ultra,thats what everybody will use
I see 70-80+fps on High on 1070 and thast what im gonna use
And its using Hitman engine,with all pros/cons many should know about it by now
All this talk about fps is getting little bit boring tbh
As for loading times - you all forgot what loading times was in HR? ;)

Meh fps is quite relevant game can look amazing but if it's a slideshow it's unplayable.

Although iirc there was a video showing different presets and there was little difference between them.

Yes,thats what i wanted to say - ultra is just not worth taxing your pc with no difference in visuals.

There is better news tho - 1h :D

Good points, maybe developers should reduce the available settings on 4K with regard to AA. Although I am only judging the relevance from my own experience with 4K.
 
I have a 7950 and don't want to upgrade (my entire PC) ... should I just not bother?

Before we get into salivating over the rest of those lovely options, here’s the machine I played Deus Ex: Mankind Divided on: i5-6600 / 16GB (DDR4) RAM / 4GB 380X (Crimson 16.8.2) / Windows 10. A little below the fairly beefy ‘Recommended’ specs, but not a huge distance away.

I’m not a tech journo with access to 57 open-bench PC rigs with water-cooled mega-GPUs or anything. This is just a sample size of one: my own fairly ordinary PC (specs above).

Benchmarks

Low: Average 54.9 / Minimum 22.2 / Maximum 76.2
Medium: Average 47.7 / Minimum 18.2 / Maximum 65.1
High: Average 41.4 / Minimum 17.1 / Maximum 56.3
Very High: Average 34.2 / Minimum 14.3 / Maximum 47.4
Ultra: Average 30.1 / Minimum 9.5 / Maximum 40.9

oh and...

Note that DirectX 12 support isn’t actually going to be fully implemented until around 5 September, so that DX12 check probably doesn’t do anything at the moment. I played some of the review build with it ‘on’, but suspect it may have just been loading the DX11 version because performance seemed identical. Incidentally, that means you probably shouldn’t trust any DirectX 12 benchmarks that were floating around pre-release. Unless they had a super-secret insider build I’m not aware of, they were based on precisely nothing

Nah, I am not suggesting they reduce settings, they definitely should not, more options the better I say! What I am suggesting however is that people not feel that they MUST have EVERYTHING on max.

This mentality of must have everything on max I have found to be actually counter intuitive over the years. There are many instances where particular settings bring little to no image quality improvements, yet require a LOT of horse power. Now if people could shake this must have max settings behaviour, they would see the extra power required for these settings could go towards running on a higher resolution, which will have a much bigger impact on image quality.
