Far Cry Primal performance review

I've been playing this tonight and it does not like too high a GPU OC - whereas elsewhere it wasn't a problem - the game would freeze. With a milder OC it's no problem but this isn't the card to get for the 1440p resolution. FXAA, most things on high, some on very high and I get 45-55 FPS. No ideal. However it's a fun game imo and I'll certainly revisit it after a GPU upgrade; I want to see this maxed out.

Far cry 4 is the same. The pig just did not like my usual oc. Never gave me any fuss with anything else.
 
I ran the benchmark on max settings with smaa @ 3440 x 1440 with 361.91 drivers and got 56fps as an average frame rate.

Tried the new drivers 362.00 and got the same 56fps. :D
 
so 390x is essentially the best graphics card at the moment,
kind of funny since people complained about it just being a 'rebrand' lineup,
I guess medium maxwell is not as superior as the sales figures would suggest

It is just one game, and even then, they are pretty even.

In the new Anno and Fallout for example, Maxwell is miles ahead.

Even in Tomb Raider, Maxwell stretches it's legs at 1080p

Fallout got a patch that significantly improved the performance on radeon cards.

Dat' Gameworks effect! :D
 
All of those results look really ugly for NVIDIA, but these two particularly. The minimum FPS difference at 4K is gigantic.

2 x 390X if you find a good deal isn't much more than the price of 1 x 980Ti, and 2 x 980Ti still lose badly ... in a GimpWorks title.
