Overclocking was neither applied nor tested, though stock overclocks (and “superclocks”) were left untouched.

Game settings were manually controlled for the DUT. AMD's 15.4 Catalyst Beta was attempted for use, but we fell back to 14.2 stable after severe instability with the beta driver. The latest 352.86 GeForce driver was used during testing. Our thanks to supporting hardware vendors for supplying some of the test components.

We tested using our updated 2015 GPU test bench, detailed in the table below. The Witcher 3 Optimization Guide & Performance Benchmarks įor this test, we combined our methodologies from the texture comparison and the GPU benchmark.

NVidia disappointed that The Witcher 3 “tainted by false allegations”.

We'd encourage checking out the video for just a few comparisons of the many options. Although screenshots can get some of the job done, a comparison video is critical for a game like The Witcher CD Projekt Red's newest RPG makes heavy use of temporal filters, which means that the filters make the most impact over time (seen through movement, which isn't conveyed in a screenshot). We independently benchmarked various game settings on a Titan X (to eliminate bottlenecking on the hardware) and took a graphics settings comparison video, found below. This Witcher 3 optimization guide defines the best graphics settings for improving FPS in the game, seeking to explain each option in greater depth. Since this posting, CD Projekt Red has released a new game patch (1.03) that drastically improves PC performance on various video cards AMD is expected to release a Catalyst 15.5 beta driver update that focuses on the Witcher in the near future. We recently benchmarked The Witcher 3 for GPU performance and remarked that the game was horridly optimized, taking the opportunity expand on the graphics settings in a limited fashion. Photographers may be familiar with the likes of chromatic aberration and vignetting, but not many games have offered these items for tweaking in the past. The launch of the Witcher 3 introduced a couple of game graphics options that aren't very commonly available in settings menus.
