You Need a Newer Graphics Card

[theonlyclintjones]

This game uses Unreal 5. I'm not tech savvy, but I take that to mean from the issues people are having, that Unreal 5 is taxing on your rig.

You probably need a graphics card in the 40s range to run this the way the developers intended. I'm not swimming in money like every other Steam user (they aren't, most of the people calling you broke are broke themselves), so I'm using an old 3070.

Just making this post for people who haven't bought this yet. Make sure you know you need that better graphics card. And apparently a new processor as well, because people claim Intel struggles with Unreal 5. Again, not tech savvy, so I'm not sure.

Meanwhile, my wife seems to be enjoying it on our PS5. It looks like it's been optimized better for consoles.

Just a heads up that will get lost in the sea of political debates on here.

The game is extremely demanding. It runs well on a 4090, but pretty much maxes it out at 4k/60.

Why not use a modified starfield engine thats more than enough UE5 for oblivion is overkill and it feels more like a test how TES:6 would run once released, this remaster is basically like ArmA Reforger for the TES franchise.

Yeah my tower wants to fly out the window when I go outdoors. I requested a refund. I'll wait for a new card or better optimization.

My wife's little gamin laptop with a 4060 runs it just fine. Granted, I am aware that a 4060 is newer but it isn't a powerful card by any means.

On a 3060 TI (OC) at 1080p I run the game on Ultra locked at 60 fps, using FSR on quality gives just the boost to not make my rig run too hot but still looks great. And of course no raytracing. Not using frame generation either. I'm happy with the quality vs performance for my older rig personally.

My 4070 super is struggling to reach 60fps on high settings with DLSS quality.

Also FYI for anyone commenting, if you're gauging performance based on the sewers you're making a mistake.

Laymen like me don't know these things.

My 3070ti runs it just fine at 4k ultrawide high settings. Running between 50 and 60 fps

I think a lot of people are. The first time you step outdoors in the real test.

UE5 is sort of the standard (for better or worse) and that's probably what the third party developer who did the remaster knows best. This probably was just easier than learning the ancient Creation engine for one game project.

Why in god's name would you use FSR on an Nvidia card instead of DLSS?

lol was wondering the same, also DLSS 4 support is coming soon as well.

my 2060 cant run this despite the low requirements listed on store page. ue5 is the bane of pc gaming
