Far Cry 6's PC system requirements and features have been revealed

Looks like Ubi messed up those RT GPU 1440P and 4K system requirements, I'm guessing they meant 6800 for 1440P RT and 6900XT for 4K RT.
 
Me too, sort of. I doubt that I'll play it on launch. But it's one Ubisoft franchise that never disappoints.

I'll probably look at it for the visuals then remove it. I found FC5 just a stupid senseless bore. Doing dumb things like punching animals hundreds of feet in the sky ruined any kind of realism I had for the game.

So my expectations on the absurdity of this one are high.
 
I've played every game in the franchise so far, but I don't have much hope. FC5 was just awful, and I get the impression the FC devs think they're more "hollywood" than actual game devs. The stories get worse with every game, yet the game play remains the same (and has been stale for a while now). But since I got this for free with a CPU purchase, I'll at least give it a chance, fingers crossed.

Not necessarily. Performance scaling with resolution is not always linear. 4K to 1440p isn't always a 50% performance reduction, so what you need for 4K 30 isn't always the same or higher tina 1440p 60.

Red Dead Redemption 2's PC version is a good example of this trait, as you need similar hardware for 1080p 60 FPS and 4K 30 FPS.

I guess we will see when the game launches.

It's just that the Nvidia side of things adds up as you'd expect it to but the AMD side doesn't -

Nvidia 1440P RT - 3070
Nvidia 4K RT - 3080

Makes sense.

AMD 1440P RT - 6900XT
AMD 4K RT - 6800 *non XT*

Confused Pikachu face ?

The 6800 non XT has a fair few less RT cores than the 6800XT and the 6900XT.

Example 6800 vs 6800XT at 4K -

The 6800 non XT is clearly at a disadvantage at 4K against its beefier XT sibling, Add in RT and it'll be even further behind, So the official specs just don't make sense considering the 6800 non XT is actually a fair bit behind the 6800XT at 4K and even further behind the 6900XT at 4K, I think this is a case of someone in the dev offices having a brain fart ^_^
