Might have to change my mine on consoles xD

Played this on Xbox One X, my god what a good looking game. Runs smooth too. Seems to be locked 60FPS at 4K. Hats off to MS for this.

Puts them PlayStation Protato games to shame xD

Nothing wrong with consoles

On Xbox One X It uses dynamic resolution, but it does hit 4k/60 at times (2160p)

Gears 5 can drop down to 1600p on Xbox One X - it is not a native 4K game and 1600p is 74% of 4K. Additionally the game uses some of the medium to low graphics settings when compared to the PC version - one area that particularly suffers is ambient occlusion which can be seen very obviously on the first level when comparing the two versions as the Xbox is missing shadows entirely on most of the foliage

A) Second hand stuff - no warranty
B) No 4k Blu-ray drive (Xbox one X has this)
C) An RX580 for $60 Australian? Where on earth did he get that?

They are going for £130 on Ebay

If we are gonna start the endless nitpicking of X1X vs PC rest assured a PC has a gazillion more things the X1X doesn't. End of the day you can run the game on a cheap PC just as well as on the X1X. That's the only point I want to make.

PS: No need to lie

Can get an equivalent PC for cheaper.


Comparing second hand Ebay PC stuff to a brand new Xbox One X?

In that case you can get an used Xbox X for circa £200. Still think it will look better than a £200 PC, and play 4K Bluray etc.

Your welcome to prove me wrong, I'll buy the equivalent £200 PC xD

Excuse my ignorance here however isn't that to be expected? I thought the 5700xt came out to best the 2070 which is exactly what it did. I thought that was kind of why NV bought out the super series as a response to that... Or are you saying the 5700xt is meant to be AMD answer to the 2080?

No RX 5700 XT is not RTX 2070 competitor but compete with RTX 2070 SUPER, RTX 2070 was been EOL 2 months ago and RTX 2060 SUPER is compete with RX 2060 SUPER which is at same performance level as RTX 2070

Today 10 September Nvidia will release new driver optimised for Gears 5.

https://www.reddit.com/r/nvidia/comments/d0ayel/gears_5_game_ready_drivers_releasing_september/

It will be very interesting to see how much performance increase on Gears 5 with new driver, we may will see 10% increase that would see RTX 2060 SUPER get closer or match RX 5700 XT.

Unreal Engine has always favored Nvidia hardware and is most optimized for Nvidia.
It's getting very old to see these little stunts performed by the media.
IE: Show AMD video cards "winning" in a nvidia centric PC title...only to see NV "drivers" show improvements a few days latter.

It's getting old and a bit "connie"

I wouldn't be surprise if the 2060S finally beats the 5700XT for once in a new title PC game.

£379.99 5700 XT direct competitor is the £379.99 2060S.

A £379.99 5700 XT is not competing with a faster £479.99 2070 S, the extra £120 is because of raw performance advantage=higher pp-it's not rocket science.

They clearly cut fire out of the budget - cause Fire from a 10 year old game looks like the fire in Gears 5. It didn't fit the 60fps budget

Unless AMD got code in Unreal Engine 4 this is a turn of events for Nvidia's favorite Engine.

  • GeForce graphics cards use the 436.15 and 436.30 WHQL drivers. We started with the.15 driver and retested 6 cards with the 436.30 drivers - these show no noticeable perf gain despite being the 'optimized' set).
  • Radeon graphics cards we used the latest AMD Radeon Adrenalin 19.91x driver .

I am shocked and awe by this turn of events. Lets see if Nvidia needs to release a 2nd and 3rd revision and re-revision of the same same drivers.
Looks like there is an issue with that driver and the 1660 cards for this game.

Side Note:
I will look for other reviews as they come in on this.3

Hmm, new drivers incoming...
