    We take a quick look at Resident Evil 7 in a PC graphics performance and PC gamer way. We'll test the game on the PC platform relative towards graphics card performance with the latest AMD/NVIDIA gra...

    Update: added FCAT results

    Okay the new NV driver severely impacts performance. I will update the result sets.

    EDIT: Seems this was updated and as such this post is no longer important. :)

    (Apparently the new Nvidia driver is causing some performance issues but the game itself might have some problems too.)

    Yeah it's crazy, the results are all over the place. I decided to leave the content as-is but did update the GeForce results towards today's 378.49 driver, and in a week or so once we have seen some game patches, driver updates etc we'll re-do the test results.

    Overall though on most graphics cards the game is very enjoyable, looks good (mostly) and is very playable.

    I wonder what doofus decided FXAA and TAA only was a good idea? I wish FXAA would go away already :S.

    The game looks like it should run locked at 60 or something, or even less. Do we know what engine it uses?

    It baffles me how good Hawaii is performing. That 390X is a beast.

    Something's happening, a bug or something. The game has nVIDIA features so it should perform at least a bit better on NV HW.

    I have other games running over 100 fps , when will they release a hotfix driver for those games to lower performance? I can't stand high frames :(

    Hilbert, turn off shadow cache and do a benchmark with and without it. You will see the difference. Actually, you have done it with on so only off version has to be done :D

    What?!?!? The Radeon R9 390X is faster than the GTX 1080 at 2560x1440?

    New "game ready" driver broke RE7 performance.

    Can you check the 970 or 980 or RX 470 4 GB frametimes ? Either the game is unplayable with 4 GB VRAM or the R9 Fury has it's own issues.
