VSync ON @ 75 FPS











Overall, things appeared pretty smooth. I just got a small shock out of how much CPU the game demanded at the worst of times. While GPU usage wasn't particularly high when I locked VSync on, I still didn't get much more bang when I let the game loose. CPU usage was really up there, but while I won't recommend a full-blown quad-core CPU to run the game at a solid 60FPS, I would say you're going to need something with some serious grunt behind each core. The game used more of the CPU than messing around in the Plains of Eidolon in Warframe would, which is no slouch and interesting given this game has Twitch integration, and streaming without a dedicated capture card is going to eat through the performance those extra cores provide. Depending on whether you're going to use Twitch integration may affect which processor you'll need. GPU usage was fairly low, as was VRAM usage. Performance was just OK; no hiccups or even bugs for that matter, but be weary of that CPU usage as it might make mobile processors scream a little.

For reference, you can see how your GPU will perform in comparison to ours with this set of charts.
