  1. I think people forget that ray tracing is more of a way to do real time effects without having to bake it into a game. But rasterization is still very capable of doing real-time lighting in real time reflections…. Of the developer wants to add the time to manually program it into a title.

  2. @Joker I get those spikes sometimes on my Vega card in some games whether dx 11 or 12. The fix for it on my system is simply switching between borderless windowed mode and full screen mode. example the division 2 in borderless windowed mode will spike like that always but in full screen mode it is a flat line. In gta v it is the same thing full screen mode makes it 100% smooth and a flat line. If this game has those screen selections maybe full screen mode would make dx12 run without those spikes.

    Watching your last video and seeing those gross fps with ray tracing my selection would be with ray tracing off for sure. Heck even cyberpunk on my system runs at 70-140 fps with medium to high settings and I had to choose full screen mode to make it smooth game play as windowed borderless was a hot buttery mess of stutters.

  3. In a 3d graphics version of a point and click / walking game does it really matter. Just pump up settings and play at whatever fps you get. I played Suicide of rachel foster which had fps all over the place on a 3090 but the game is just a walking game and 5hrs long, couldn't be bothered to care. Just enjoyed it one afternoon.

  4. Ok… installed and ran through the opening 10-15 mins of the game (10900k/3090) on various settings… this is via Epic games launcher and there is an option to choose DX 11 or 12… all numbers are 4K with every setting capped. Here's what I got:
    DX11 w/ DLSS off – 30 to 40 fps
    DX11 w/ DLSS on – 60 fps
    DX 12 w/ RT on DLSS off – 20 fps
    DX 12 w/ RT on DLSS on – 60 fps
    DX 12 w/ RT ultra on DLSS off – slideshow
    DX 12 w/ RT ultra on DLSS on – 50-60 fps

    These numbers are just averages… I had a few spikes up and down on all settings… and RT ultra was just awful… 1-5 fps LOL… DLSS on however made everything quite playable and the game looks amazing. All the dark scenes are just stunning on my 48" OLED. Gonna check it out more this weekend… with DLSS on I guess.
