I7 7700 3,6ghz still enough for 1080p?

[Thorba]

I own a gtx 4070 but my cpu is a bit old now, is this running with the cpu from above good in 1080p? I was playing hotizon: forbidden west lately and it was running perfect on high settings with 60 fps (think the graphics there are on the same level like here).

It depends on what graphical settings and frame rate that you consider to be “enough”. I have a 4070 and I’m playing on ultra at 1440 with DLSS Performance at ~80 fps but I have a 5800x3d. The game has FSR 3 Frame Generation (but not DLSS FG). Best thing to do is find a reputable YouTube channel that has benched this game, although it might not be easy to find your exact system because an i7 7700 paired with a 4070 is a bit of an unusual/somewhat imbalanced system.

You can google for "gamegpu avatar", switch to english. And compare different hardware combinations to see ultra and ultra+framegen, check a gpu against all the listed cpus, or check a cpu against all the gpus, 1080p, 1440p and 4k.

You should be getting less than 120fps with framegen.
I'm using i7 14700k with rtx 4070, so my fps is around somewhere there.
And the site benchmarks even with i3 10100 is pretty much similar, which is slightly better than i7 7700.

You're slightly cpu bottlenecked with the game, you might get more fps with framegen when upgrading the cpu, but not by much.

If you're gonna use framegen, and if you get black squared textures, disable framegen in the main menu and only enable it after continuing the game, each time you start the game up.

Also a warning, there is some sort of bug going on with the game that if you don't have the expansion dlc, you can't play the game.

Thx, 60fps are enough for me at high graphic setting on 1080p. I turned off framegen because i heared it causes problems and at the game i was testing it with was no vsync option for my screen (tearing problems).
I know my combi of card and cpu is a bit exotic but so far every modern game was running pretty solid in 1080p (even alan wake2).
I only worrie a bit because most min requirement for games are 6 cores and not sure how my old 4core can handle this.

I have Alan Wake 2 also and with Path Tracing enabled, I would consider it heavier than this game on Ultra (not sure about Unobtainium setting though, I tried it once and it was way too heavy at the resolution I’m trying to run the game at). You can always grab it and play for 90 minutes and refund it if performance is bad. The game is actually really fun and visually stunning, up there with Cyberpunk/Alan Wake 2/Horizon Forbidden West and other PS Studios games. I’m not the biggest fan of Ubisoft open world games but I actually view Avatar as one of their best games in quite a while. And at least you have multithreading on your quad core, it might have a bit longer in it than you think.

If it runs like horizon forbidden west i would already be happy, i run this on max settings with nearly 60fps everywhere and zero bugs/crashes till now (only the great hub at burning shores was a bit lower but playable).
I have even no problem with running games without ray/pathracing because my standards are not this high anymore at graphics (it is more important for me that the game runs stable).
