5090 running the game as it stands

[tpowl1400]

nvidia showcase is currently showing the RTX 5090 to be running Stellar Blade at 4k, at barely 120 fps with DLSS 4 (which includes frame gen) off , but also with ray tracing off. at the same time. That doesn't sound great to me. Hopefully Shift Up further improves native frame rate.

4k native at 120 fps is really good most games cant even reach 60 for example spiderman 2 that just came out, the optimization in this game seems to be the best out of any 2025 game so far.

What the hell, it's native 4K, with no upscaling. For a new game on unreal engine? What do you expect? 240 fps? It's already quite impressive it can even reach 120+ fps in native 4K.

spiderman 2 is a broken game. I am talking about comparing apple to apple as in games that are actually optimized and compare those 1:1?

5090 MSRP $2000 that has 30% rasterization performance boost over 4090. I'd expect much more at 4k native resolution than this.

FPS is 91-127 is 4K native. But I don't really care how good or bad it is on a 5090. How about 5070 12GB performance?Is it good for 1440, is the vram enough?

[tpowl1400]

I mean as the current game market stands, if being able to maintain a stable frame rate of 120 capped at 4k with RAY TRACING OFF using a GPU with rasterization performance boost of 30% over 4090 gpu is what the worldwide gaming considers to be max in performance with the most powerful gpu, I have nothing to argue against if that is indeed the reality of the situation.

nvidia's today's promotion thru introduction of Stellar Blade and Tides of Annihilation was simply a marketing tactic to show off multi-frame gen as they did back during CES '25. nvidia obviously can't do anything else to market their new Blackwell gpu cores other than that. Hence, how well Stellar Blade is REALLY going to perform with any other gpus below 5090 , we have absolutely no clue.

It is a bit disturbing since this game should work smoothly on much weaker spec than RTX 5090. And we can see drop to 93 FPS. I have hope Shift Up going to work a bit on optimization.

I'm assuming it is running with DLSS Quality to hit 4k ultra 120 on the 5090 because if it is in native/dlaa that is incredibly impressive considering I've noticed with a few heavily demanding games I still need DLSS Quality/Balanced to start seeing any results anywhere close to 120fps at ultra 4k rtx with my 5090 (non Frame Gen of course).

Yeah the optimisation in Spider-Man 2 is pretty woeful, I remember getting around 70-80fps with 4k ultra rtx transformer on DLSS quality.

Not sure if things have changed now but on launch it was a bit of a disaster to play, even with a 5090 and a 9800X3D.

I'm getting 120 fps out of nvidia showcase from yesterday, when the video at some points does not show DLSS 4 or ray tracing on thru their video. An educated guess if you will. But I also have to recognize the fact that nvidia and Shift Up still have to work on finalizing the nvidia driver and the game itself , so.. nothing's set in stone yet I guess.

Well that certainly sounds promising but yeah I am happy to wait for them to ensure it is all optimised correctly and of course we will only know if they manage to deliver that when it actually releases.

If they do it would pretty impressive to see from Shift UP, especially since we are now living the age of so many games coming out heavily unoptimised, with the "fix it later" approach taken in most cases.

4K native "barely" 120 fps

People are delusional.

99% of people can't afford that card and 99% of people are not going to have it! so who cares! they need to show ♥♥♥♥ that people will actually use and buy
