![]() ![]() Not being able to sustain 60fps at the lowest graphical settings at 1080p (reprojected 720p) on a fastest possible CPU, memory and GPU means, that the talk on the internet about the "terrible" PC performance is accurate, not exaggerated.Quantum Break is a 2016 science fiction action-adventure third-person shooter video game developed by Remedy Entertainment and published by Microsoft Studios for Microsoft Windows and Xbox One. So you were unable to run at solid 60fps at 1080p (which is effectively 720p if NeoGAF is to be believed) at lowest settings on "overclocked i7 6700K CPU and 16GB of 3200MHz DDR4 memory" and a 980Ti/Fury, yet reports that the game runs terribly are "exaggerated"? Sadly on my system I was unable to get the game to run at a solid 60FPS, regardless of the GPU that I used (.) which is a very strange prospect given that I was playing Quantum Break from an SSD on a system with an overclocked i7 6700K CPU and 16GB of 3200MHz DDR4 memory. While there has been a lot of talk on the internet about the "terrible" PC performance of Quantum Break I can say that these reports have been exaggerated Both of these GPUs will be the ASUS Strix modelsīoth of these GPUs offer very similar performance in most scenarios and come in at very similar price points, so it will be very interesting to see which GPU will come out on top. To represent AMD and Nvidia's Mid-range GPU offerings we have decided to use the AMD R9 380 and the Nvidia GTX 960. Nvidia GTX 980Ti (Left), AMD R9 Fury X (Right) Both GPUs will be the reference design and will be running at stock settings. We will be testing this game on our dedicated GPU test rig using the current flagship GPUs from both AMD and Nvidia. This leaves us no option but to use newer tools and look at this game in a different way than usual, but we have managed to get some solid benchmarking data on the game.įor this game, we will be using the newest drivers that were available when the game released, which is Nvidia's Game Ready Geforce 364.72 driver and AMD's 16.4.1 driver, both of which are the most recent GPU drivers for either company. On the PC side things have been strangely dark, with no real performance data for the game getting released and or even full reviews on the PC version of the game, leaving PC users in a strange position where they have to solely rely on the impression left by the public on social media sites like Twitter or Reddit, instead or having a professional review to look at.įor us, UWP games present us with a unique issue, which is that traditional methods of benchmarking a game no longer apply, with proven apps like FRAPS simply not functioning on the UWP platform. ![]() The game is one of Microsoft's biggest game launches of the year, with the game having a huge marketing budget and getting generally favourable reviews online. Shipping as a UWP (Universal Windows Platform) app right now means that there are several key limitations, like the fact that the game will only run in a borderless fullscreen mode, V-Sync will always be forced on, that SLI and CrossFire are not supported and that right now the games cannot support mods or most software overlays. ![]() Even before launch Quantum Break had a bad reputation on PC, mostly due to the game shipping as a Windows 10 store exclusive and with all the issues that come with it. ![]()
