Current hardware can't run this game

[danygia]

I have a 4090 and i get 35-45 FPS at 4K DLSS Quality on the benchmark. Game is still unplayable at 4K DLSS Balanced where i get 52 FPS average. I also can't turn Frame Generation On because FPS are too low. Corrente hardware isn't ready for next gen games.

Frame generation with DLSS and RTX 4090 is not working even if it says ON in the in-game menus. Go into your Windows graphic settings (no, not nvidia control panel) and turn HAGS ON. On my PC this was set to off. I went from 48 to 82 fps average with DLSS Balanced and full raytracing. It is a bug that the game states that Frame Gen is on when HAGS is off. It has to be on. On my Norwegian Windows version HAGS is called something else of course. But google HAGS if you are not sure what I am talking about, find that setting and turn it on.

Something is wrong with your PC then as I have a 4090 and I get well over 100FPS most of the time at 4k. Make sure you are using DLSS and FG along with not going above 60-70% res scaling. Oh and I have RT on medium too

This is a UE5 game, it is a next gen engine that is hard on all hardware and especially when you push the limits like this game is.

So you are not at max settings.

So just turn down the settings?

It's wrong to turn on FG to get 80 FPS from 40 FPS.

Consider not using the Cinematic preset. I suspect this is one of the problems you are having. It is ridiculously wasteful and not meant for playing the game but instead screen shots IMO.

Also consider not running MAX RT.

You are going to need massive upscaling to run in Cinematic, Max RT. Everything will be so blurry it is not worth it, IMO.

Of course not, nobody can run it with everything maxed out so why do you think you have hardware that is better than everyone else on the planet?!

The game runs perfectly fine if you choose reasonable settings... this isn't the first game in the world that pushed the limits of current hardware of the time (ever heard of Crysis?) and it wont be the last.

You are whingeing because you have unrealistic expectations of what even a 4090 can do

Hilariously bad take. Just because current hardware can't run the highest possible settings doesn't mean the game 'cant run on current hardware'. It runs well even on my ally on low settings.

Just bring the settings down slightly and you'll see huge games. They didn't have to include cinematic mode and highest RTX. If they didn't you wouldn't even be complaining. Those modes will be available in the future on next gen cards and the game will look even better. There are always games built like this...

You can run the game,but yes, UE5 is made for the next generation of GPU/CPU, At least if you want to turn everything on and max out everything and want to have 120+fps.

I have a 4 year old laptop that runs it at max what the hell are you talking about ?

He’s a PC noob that thinks just buying the best graphics card will max out everything.

There’s never been a high end GPU that can max everything out. You always compromise.

You could have the 2 best GPUs in SLI when crysis came out and frame rate would still chug.

Why would you not max out everything with the highest available hardware? These games could not be made on something better than this right?
So the real question should be, why make games with settings, that no one can even play with, using the best hardware available?
Answer: To make you buy the next generation of hardware, as if the 1400 bucks you just spent on a GPU was not enough.
Buy new product, then wait for next product to buy
