The RTX 2080 Ti meanwhile hits 195 fps at 1080p very low, 175 fps on 1080p medium, and 135 fps at 1080p high, and the ultra/badass settings at 1080p and higher still performed equal to or worse than DX11 mode.ĪMD's story is even better. If you're after 144fps and are willing to run at lower quality settings, the RTX 2060 runs 15 fps faster on the very low preset, 2-3 fps faster on medium, and slower on everything else. Long stall at launch notwithstanding (opens in new tab), DX12 does appear to be potentially worthwhile in some situations. that future patch may have already arrived, or perhaps I just had some bad luck initially. A future patch could further improve the DX12 situation, but we used DX11 for these tests. It's not clear if that was just bad luck or if the problem has since been fixed, because in followup testing DX12 hasn't had such issues, but the long launch delay and performance issues are still present (as of ). We experienced several crashes in limited DX12 testing. The second issue is that while DX12 does appear to improve performance at 1080p and the very low through medium presets, on most GPUs the high through badass presets generally showed lower performance than DX11 mode.Ī slightly less consistent and more nebulous concern is stability. The first launch with a GPU under DX12 mode will take quite a bit longer, but subsequent launches still add a minute or two of Claptrap dancing across the screen before you get to the main menu.
The biggest complaint is that DX12 mode causes a massive stall after the intro videos, delaying the trip to the main menu by as much as 2-3 minutes.

The jump from Unreal Engine 3 to UE4 has brought improved lighting, shadows, reflections, and effects to the series' signature hand-drawn style, and publisher 2K has said the whole game was "developed from the ground up" to take advantage of AMD's most recent Radeon GPUs and 3rd-gen Ryzen CPUs.Īs such, it supports AMD's FidelityFX suite, and notably goes without the DLSS and ray tracing features offered by Nvidia RTX cards. What has changed, thankfully, is the tech. See below for the full details, along with our Performance Analysis 101 article. As our partner for these detailed performance analyses, MSI provided the hardware we needed to test Borderlands 3 on a bunch of different AMD and Nvidia GPUs, multiple CPUs, and several laptops.
