Far Cry 6 GPU performance not bad at all but is severely bottlenecked by CPU

On my 9900k/3080Ti it’s more like 10-12 fps at 4K on UQ. I am running into CPU bottlenecks at 4.8gz even at 4K so it seems you would be needing a 5900x to get huge gains from FSR.

Do people not do this anyway as a matter of course?
Honestly this game is very clearly indicating that AMD paid off the studio to ensure it plays to their strengths and actively highlights NVIDIA’s weaknesses. Ray tracing is weak to ensure AMD cards don’t look bad and allow NVIDIA to pull ahead while at the same time bump up the texture resolution to pointlessly high levels so as to highlight the low VRAM of the NVIDIA cards. Very convenient of them to suggest 11GB VRAM, just 1GB more than the 3080.
It’s using 11GB on my 3080 Ti yet I am seeing low res textures in many spots and stuttering with the pack and perfect without it.

why would it be convenient to suggest 1GB more than Nvidias turd tier GPU?

Flagship?
Even with HD textures and infinite VRAM, the game still looks terrible for a 2021 release. I was replaying HZD the other day and it's far superior.
Whether the VRAM usage is on purpose or just because it's poorly built, who knows. Very forgettable game; FC3 was much better.
Do you genuinely need it pointed out to you? What does "turd tier GPU" even means? Is the 3080 supposed to be a bad GPU?
Oh man, I've seen it all now. I honestly I think mankind is beyond salvation at this point.
There is so much wrong think here, honestly don't know where to begin.
Time for me to bow out of this thread and discussion for my own mental well being.
I always do unless it is a MP/COOP game where it is much easier to invite/join friends etc.
But they most definitely do harm performance, origins in game one by far being the worst.
Yup it's really not rocket science, nvidia sponsor games play to their strengths and amds weaknesses and amd sponsor games to play to their strengths and nvidias weaknesses. That's companies for you at the end of the day, anyone who thinks otherwise really has no clue and clearly has not got any experience with the marketing/PR industry especially when you're talking about companies worth billions.....
If amd fans are having an issue with these kind statements then I guess we can also say that witcher 3, crysis 2, batman arkham games etc. etc. were ok in terms of graphical effects and not favouring a certain brands strengths and pointing out other brands weaknesses?
But in the case of FC 6, it just seems to be an issue with the game/engine as multiple reputable sites/users have now confirmed various game issues and ubi have also said they are looking into the issues so hopefully not too long until the performance and texture issues that various people are seeing is resolved soon.
e.g. just look at these comparisons and tell me this game doesn't have an issue

conversation might have been relevant a year ago when the 3080 was the "flagship"
Because AMD knows it’s the most popular card of this generation. MSRP to MSRP, it’s a superior product to the 6800XT apart from vram. The minimum VRAM suggest 11GB on Connect just 1gb more than the 3080 while the system requirements state 16GB, which is conveniently what the AMD flagships have.
It’s very similar to how Watch Dogs Legion and Cyberpunk require 10GB at 4K for their textures because they were sponsored by nvidia.
I agree. It’s CPU optimisation is also terrible. My 3080 Ti and 9900k in many scenes are just relaxing at 80% and 30% usage respectively as a single thread is pushed to the limit while the vram shows 11GB being used with low res textures popping up here and there. A shoddy release which I have come to expect from Ubisoft.
Yep these issues are something digital foundry had on their 3080 as well
they said generally the game runs smoother on Nvidia, the frametime graph on AMD cards are more spikey and unstable. But the 3080 has issues with the texture pack, in some places the framerate will tank and in other places the framerate will be solid but the textures won't load.
It’s running smoother on nvidia because it’s loading extremely low resolution textures in many scenes before the card runs out of vram. The AMD card continues to load the higher resolution textures causing more stuttering. Just a guess.
The 3080 Ti is the flagship GPU. Says so right in NVIDIA’s marketing. The 3090 is a joke of a gpu which should never have existed with that ludicrous 24GB of VRAM which is pointless for gaming.
exactly the point I made......
well actually the point I made was that the 3080 was not the flagship and that it's irrelevant.
I never once heard anyone moan about the performance of the 2080 or 1080 over the years.
3080 irrelevant? That is some serious trolling, plenty of people moaned about the 2080ti performance not being that big compared to the 1080ti back then (well every Turing card really)
In the sense that a company would specifically try to hurt performance on that GPU. That's why the 3080ti exists....
Doesn’t add up as I’ve not experienced any stuttering at all on my 3090FE, and that’s using the HD textures.
