Ryse: Son of Rome GPU performance benchmark

I would say it has practically nothing to do with it. Every game on XB1 uses directX.

So porting anything from XB1 if that easy should be better. Not seeing a pattern at all lol.

You don't find anything strange in the fact that the 290x is getting almost 50% more FPS than the 970 at 1080p in some of the tests? Even the 280x is ahead in same cases.
 
It's a bit early to be making judgments, they're comparing 3wk old NVidia drivers (that are probably much older due to WHQL certification) to 2 day old AMD betas that have probably been released specifically for this purpose.

Nothing in the AMD drivers about this game.
 
No Profile for this game ^^^^ ?

14.9 WHQL and 14.9.1 Beta are the same drivers, the only difference is the BETA drivers have a couple of fixes.
 
Woohoo looks like another game with an engine frame cap at 60fps, thanks crytek, massive support of pc gaming and all that :rolleyes:

I think it's more strange people would make a huge assumption and post it in a factual fashion that its a direct result of GCN 1.1 architecture but each to their own. Let's hope it has a built in bench so people can get a real idea, like most titles in this sub section lol.
 
I will grab this when it is cheap enough. I do like the look of it but so much to play already, this would take a back seat. I do question what is going on though, as 29.5fps with a 1080P setting and full details (I assume?) seems a bit crap. Is it a case of no optimisation and cash in on PC or is the engine really that good looking and that demanding?

Let's leave the baiting comments out as well shall we.
 
DSOGaming: Crysis 3 was nominated as our most optimized PC title in 2013. Will the PC version of Ryse: Son of Rome be up to the standards set by your previous game, and can we expect even more PC graphical options to tweak/adjust this time around?

Nicolas Schulz: To achieve the quality level that we desired on the Xbox One, we had to continue optimizing the engine after shipping Crysis 3. Techniques like SSDO or Realtime Local Reflections are a fundamental part of the Ryse rendering pipeline and we had to make them efficient enough to run well on lower spec hardware. We are making heavy use of some DX11 features like Compute Shaders, which however, perform better on some hardware architectures than others, so there will be some noticeable performance gaps between different desktop GPUs. Regarding the available custom graphics options, they are similar to what we had in Crysis 3.

There you go. As you can see, the Achille's heel (and why is so power efficient) on the older gtx680/gtx770, puts it quite behind the r280x/7970GHz ed.

Am I the only one that wants this game for nothing more than the graphics? :D I may enjoy the game itself but I mostly just want to see how glorious it can look on my ultrawide screen lol.
Does it unlock tonight on steam?
 
It's not a stutter fest, but it isn't as smooth. I couldn't change from 120hz myself.


+1. I can't tell the difference between 100-144hz, but I definitely can below 100hz on responsiveness in games.

As for Ryse, played it and still own it on the XB1. Its an alright game but the graphics really are something else. The only game I actually think deserves the "next gen" label.
 
I would say a few deserve that title....Alien isolation on PC is pretty next gen in my eyes... Second son aswell and Ryse for sure.
