> What is noteworthy is that due VRAM requirements, cards with 4 GB aren't doing so well. Especially the Radeon RX 5500 XT, and RX 6500 XT to a slightly lesser extent, take serious hits in performance, even at 1080p. As soon as you have 6 GB VRAM, performance is fine, though, even at 4K. While the game allocates almost 8 GB VRAM at 4K, it seems not all these assets are constantly used, so performance isn't affected in a significant way—the GTX 1070 8 GB vs. GTX 1660 Ti 6 GB matchup is a good way to keep an eye on that. Of course, there are plenty of settings to adjust if you feel you want to reduce VRAM pressure a little bit.
I mean....
It's established that this game uses 6GB. Given that there are quite a few cards being sold or out there in PCs, wouldn't it make sense to run tests on 'High'?
Like, the 6500 XT is
faster than the RX 580 as a card, but here the 580 GB comes out 50% ahead. Therefore you'd just run this at High or whatever, if you had a 4GB card, because in the case that you actually own a 4GB card, then it would be foolish to try and fit 6GB of textures into it.
Or you can just buy the original console and play on that. With money to spare.
Not really comparable:
- There are four quality presets: "Low", "Original," "High," and "Ultra."
- "Original" uses the same settings as the title on the PS4 (2018)
In other words, the original console runs at 1080p 30fps, on 'medium'.
The 6800 xt gives you 60fps at 4k 'ultra'.
