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

But changing to the equivalent settings on PC doesn’t resolve the issue. I am actually running below console settings here.

Well maybe your issue will be fixed in a driver or game update.

Hopefully it will. For now, I will try to run the PseudoHD pack. Replaces the textures for characters, cars and weapons with the HD versions, which would be the most noticeable parts of the pack.

Right, so you can't compare to the console since it is only using High Settings and no Ray Tracing.

Is the xbox version also suffering from textures? Couldnt quite tell from the responses/handbags

Not sure, the videos I've watched looked fine but I've not spent a lot of time looking into it as its consoles so who cares.

It doesn’t. But it has a different issue. When you rotate the camera, there is a stutter even though the fps is stable. It’s there on both PS5 and Xbox but not there on PC which is unique as it’s usually the other way around.

No. But the texture pack on console is significantly lower quality than PC so all that tells me is that you can't compare the console to PC because the game on PC is using image quality he console cannot produce

Why do you say it's the same? The texture pack file size on PC is double the file size on consoles

consoles have a HD pack to differentiate the ps4/ps5 versions and xbox one/ xbox series consoles, doesnt mean its exactly the same HD pack the pc version has., plenty of games on consoles have "next gen" upgrades like that. games like COD have exactly the same.

Proprietary compression. Game and patch sizes are always smaller on PS5 vs. PC. It’s quite amazing actually. A patch which has a 20GB file size on PC is 8GB on consoles.

There are issues on console too (same way there is for amd gpus), just not as severe nor common as there is on nvidia hardware:

That’s the traversal stutter. That’s been in the engine since Far Cry 3. It will never be fixed.

Look at the texture difference in the hats.

Think it's something to do with a banjo snapping.

Nothing to dread, it's actually quite a sought after ability. The times I've been to the pub and fought off the ladies who've heard about my traversal stutter...
