+Necris: The whole point here is that these people weren't able to tell the difference between 480p and HD, until they were notified by some setting, just like in most cases you wouldn't be able to tell if you're playing on "Very High" or "Ultra" unless you went to check the setting (or Ultra skipped frames...)

The only thing that looks better with Ultra is the settings panel.

Well to be fair, 5400 rpm hard drives are totally obsolete. Even 7200 rpm drives are being fazed out by SSD prices decreasing more and more after every year. I myself got a 500 gb SSD that I have been using for a year with no issues for $120. Definitely more expensive, yes, but the ends justify the means for the unbelievable 200% improvement over HDD's. And the more they are implemented and mass produced, the cheaper they will become due to manufacturers seeking to fulfill the demand for SSD's by finding cheaper and more efficient means to produce them. Besides the industry cannot keep utilizing old technology forever. . that would be like Andrew Carnegie saying "The Bessemer process is great, sure. . . but I'll just stick with my old tech because I like it more and I am used to it."

CrazyWeeMonkey a classic example of this is when you see original PS/Nintendo games over 15-20 years old in 4K - they're truly beautiful. You aren't focused on the quality of textures, or the graphical fidelity but simply lose yourself in the frame clarity and pixel edge definitions that compliment the amazing games that came out. take Spyro in 4k for an example!

Are you really asking game journalist to do genuine research? you are crazy

Face it: Framerate is MORE IMPORTANT than Graphics these days in gaming. This is why consoles are bashed by PC gamers for being mostly only 30 FPS. My rig sports an Nvidia GeForce GTX 660, and the "Minimum Requirements" for Doom says a GeForce GTX 670, but I managed to launch the game and play it at the lowest possible settings, and guess what? It still plays at around 60 FPS and I had a good time without complaining too much about the graphics!

I think this is more of a misunderstanding of the purpose of those benchmarking graphs. Usually the priority is **not** to represent a "realistic" use case scenario, but rather, it is to make the differences between the products being compared as big as possible so that you can have a fair comparison of each product's maximum potential. This means that benchmarkers deliberately create GPU-limited scenarios when comparing GPUs, which means turning up the resolution and graphics settings, and CPU-limited scenarios when reviewing CPUs. I feel like people often misunderstand this which can mislead them. Benchmarking graphs like these are primarily supposed to be used for relative comparison, not really for absolute numbers; as said in the video there may often be better performing options that look similar, that's just not the point of the benchmark. Furthermore, in reality the differences between between these products may in many scenarios be less pronounced than in the benchmarks, that's because the benchmarks are deliberately designed to make these differences apparent. I really hope that more people will keep these things in mind when interpreting benchmarking graphs and making buying decisions.

A lil bit of both never hurt.

You have a very strong point. Although the part where you mention that benchmarks should not be shown on the highest settings. The point of a benchmark is to push the system to its limits and see how cards compare under stress that might be shown to it over the 2-4 year lifespan someone owns the card. The framerates of a 1050 and a 2080 ti on lowest settings will be much closer because it is not hard to run most games. There comes in the bottleneck of the cpu. Which exists to matter what. Therefore benchmarks should always be on the highest settings. Video games make their graphics beautiful because people care about how the game looks. I play almost all games I own on lowest settings to get that sweet 144fps. Many people prefer quality over frames, not to mention streamers. Also, not everyone plays first-person shooters where you get an advantage on lowest settings. Games that are slower, like you showed in the video, The Witcher 3, they were built to be beautiful graphics and story that immerses you. Why would anyone want to be running around a low poly world if they could make it look beautiful by changing the graphical settings? (Assuming their hardware can handle medium to high settings.) Do I even need to mention Virtual Reality games that will be coming soon in the future where ultra won't just look good? They may be so believable that you may forget that you're in a game. These are my two cents, I do agree higher fps is king. But there are some criticisms still here! Have a nice day!

Ultra should be renamed to "Benchmark Settings"

This video just woke me up. For years I haven't bothered with anything but ultra because that is how you are playing "badass". I am going to try turning down some settings and get better fps.

Even though developers are making games runnable on low settings, hardware is still too weak to run the latest games: now every game has to be larger than 100 GB for some reason.

Considering the speed of hardware evolution, you'll be able to play those games at 4k with ultra high def textures with RTX in 2-3 years no problem. The reason they do it is the same reason you get remakes and remasters of old games. Or should I say the exact opposite. So they are viable over a longer period of time. It is good, necessary and smart. People who haven't played some games and people who revisit their favorite games a few years later will enjoy them even more then. Like I just bought Titanfall 2 and play it on literal max and it's mindblowing how good the game looks and how good it actually is. And it's a 2016. title. Most underrated game of the decade and the multiplayer is so good I have no clue why anyone even plays CoD anymore. Now answer me this - Why can a Bugatti Chiron go 450 km/h if the speed limit is 150?

Thing is, those sizes are pretty inflated from all the MTX content like skins and character/weapon variants and other useless stuff like that. But also from all the extra LODs (level of detail) being generated for all ever increasing assets. Have you ever wondered how games manage to have so many graphics options that let you scale down to potato levels? It's all based off of pre-generated LODs for everything in the game. You might make a 4k texture (that is 4096x4096 pixels) but the game engine also generates "mip-maps" or smaller versions of the texture that can be streamed in and out as needed based on both view-distance and quality settings. And all those extra textures are going to add up.

Unless you are like me, and can easily see the differences between high and ultra high in games. It honestly depends on what game I'm playing, I can happily play modded Skyrim at 30 fps, if it's pretty. If it's a competitive game, I'll try to hit 60 minimum. Ultra settings are definitely not excuses.

*Ultra just means "wasteful", reducing FPS by 30-40% for almost zero changes in actual graphics, by cranking up things like texture filtering and antialising to absurdly overkill levels that you'd need a microscope to see. Ultra is a benchmarking tool but is not meaningful for actually playing the games. The developers optimize High as the way it's meant to be played, offering the best meaningful graphical impact and the most reasonable performance impact! You can of course individually increase some meaningful setting such as "High preset + extra grass density" on your own, to get the meaningful changes without all the totally useless stuff that Ultra brings!*

(720p, something i thought was absurd. i wanted to run it at 800x480 and wasn't even given the choice, and since its a uwp game, i couldn't even edit settings manually :|) but i got an external cooler and my laptop stopped throttling, and from there i was able to overclock the gpu to further increase performance. then i noticed that changing from the cockpit to bumper cam also gave a huge boost to performance. ended up with 25~30fps average with the lowest drops on the most demanding parts of the map going to 18fps and the less demanding parts hitting 60. i was able to work with that until i came back home.

9500 gt, i3 2100 in csgo Before: 40-50 fps After overclock, driver update, messing with pc settings: 100-150 fps

What I'm wondering (specifically in csgo, or any competitive game, I guess) is, if you're both into mapping and competitive play, what settings should you use? Should you still roll 4:3 stretched with lowest settings or should you be using 16:9 with max settings to see all that nice detail when mapping and to keep everything unstretched?

I can see your point, but in GTA 5 especially I can notice quite a difference in the texture quality between low/medium or high. However, I did notice that the between high and ultra the results are really negligible and like you said before I'm not sure if the changes are really even good.

I have to disagree on one point: The reason you stated why reviewers should not use higher settings, is the exact reason why they SHOULD. It's intended to be a benchmark, testing the limits of the card, not just what's playable. Doing benchmarks at absurdly high framerates (induced by graphically un-intensive settings) creates a CPU bottleneck, and skewers the results. Ultra Settings is there makes sure that the card is always at 100%.

I think that that's down to SSR (Screen Space Reflections). See, the brownish rocks on the right are reflected in the water - resulting in a muddy looking river. While, on the "normal" / "high" setting it's static water with some specular highlights. Honestly, I've always prefer against using SSR, since its artifacts and performance drops are immensely annoying and not worth the questionable increase in visual quality.

I always tweak every setting of every game to the minimum that makes a certain graphic element visible in gameplay. Siege for example: shadows on low turns it off, on medium it turns on and from then on it just gets higher res, so there's no reason going beyond medium for that one. It's the way I get the best visual/performance ratio, works every time.

@darkengine5931

Жыл бұрын

I could actually see a case where that might give you an edge as a gamer even if you can run ultra at 60+ FPS, since no shadows means you can see things more clearly. Shadows make things dark and offer less visual/light information to our eyes. Only time I think a shadow helps us functionally (not aesthetically) is to improve spatial awareness, but not all games require that (ex: first-person games don't require that nearly as much as third-person since you're already directly seeing through the character's eyes).

It used to be that I would turn textures and models up to ultra and ignore post processing and lighting quality but now I realize that lighting and post processing are far more important for realism than texture quality and other things. Now I focus on render distance, Post Processing, Lighting, vegetation density, and some AA (1440p doesn’t need too much AA) and then turn up other settings.

NAh, people will still complain if they run their games on Extra Ultra and get over 150fps. They want more no matter what. Me, if I can run the game and get a decent 25-40 fps. Im happy. Even if it means playing potato games.

Yeah, I've been noticing there's almost no difference between high and ultra settings in Dragon Age: Inquisition, even medium was not bad, I needed to change to low settings to see a difference in graphics quality. So I play on High with 1 or 2 things on medium (shadows and something else).

I'm sorry but I'd take higher graphical settings over 4k any day. Lighting, textures, Shadows, AO, SSR, GI and more go a lot further towards making a game look better as opposed to "muh pixels". I'm happy as long as I max out a game at 60fps.

Maybe it's because I started on a Commodore 64 but I prefer Ultra settings over lack of jaggies any day.

The "modern games look good even on low" statement goes both ways. With a few exceptions like War Thunder, It usually just raises the bar for hardware entry and results in little change in performance between graphics settings on low end hardware.

Yeah, in most games there are graphical settings that really fall in the "experimental" category. Now, if you can run the HairWorks in Witcher 3 without sacrificing performance, that do that by all means, but it's not like regular hair in Witcher 3 looks like a big blotch of hair with no detail, actually, regular hair looks awesome, so the added option of making it better is a welcome bonus, but it's far from necessary and doesn't really add to the sense of immersion and fidelity, yet it annihilates the frame-rate.

the only things that matter are texture quality, draw distance and lighting. The rest of it can bugger off. Unless the texture quality is like 5% better but uses twice as much ram, or those textures are inconstant. In some cases I turn down the texture quality if only 50% or less of the textures are the same resolution. Bethesda are are offenders with this one, their HD texture packs are utter crap. As for frame rate, if it's locked with no stutter or drops 50FPS is good enough if you have a display that can output 50FPS that is. Frame rate is diminishing returns as well.

@Desertcamel @Cheeki Breeki for 2018 amd has Vega 2.0 to compete with Volta, and it will not have xx70 and xx80 performance, but higher imgur.com/a/4s3nV Volta is not gonna slaughter amd until the gpu's are out

Ultra settings are overrated as hell! Thank you! Second to ultra settings are best, or even the third.

Resolution vs FPS is very subjective. I own a 144 hz monitor and I kind of regret it. I think a 75 hz one would be better for me.

foreign's gaming tech buy a 75 hz and overclock it

I thought the purpose of Ultra Settings were for when a game is 14 years old and our PC are monstrously powerful when compared to the PCs we had at the time. My computer’s pretty old now, my hardware’s failing, and components are old and underpowered. But I can run old games like Half-Life 2 (2004) or something along those lines, on ultra, 32x Anti-aliasing, perfectly fine. It’s awesome honestly for that, it’s just games post-2012 where I start having issues as my computer just can’t do it anymore, and I have to reduce the settings to high or medium, and for even more recent games I have to go low and very low, and even then I can’t get 60.

i mean that's a good point. I had a rx550 2GB, which is a cheap, budget oriented graphics card from 2017; and while playing need for speed underground 2, i could put in on max settings and on the max resolution it supports, hit the fps cap (140fps), whith a stable framerrate, while still using at most 70% of the gpu in the worst case scenario. Still, the game looks pretty good to me even though it'a a game from 2004. Back then, however, you needed a high-end graphics card to be able to run the game at max settings, max resolution, and a playable framerrate. Nowadays, you can do it even on integrated intel hd graphics (you would be getting about 30 fps in that case tho, however that is definitely *playable* )

i still watch this video and smart graphis when i want to buy a video card or a pc thanks philip . you are so wise

what i mean by , buy a gpu or a pc when i watch benchmarks and see it's lower than 60fps i start thinking about buying a better gpu / pc even if the first card or lower than it is far than perfect for me selfish thinking right ?.

I feel like as a consumer you just need to be aware of the purpose of a benchmark. It's to show the difference and see what each GPU is capable of. What you're requesting is optimization guides on what mix of settings are the best for a balance between image quality and performance. They're two different things.

If you are still using a monitor with that resolution i feel sorrry for you

I feel good about myself now. Thanks

My favorite modern video settings are dynamic resolution and resolution scaling, so I can scale the resolution back on the backend and still get decent image quality on my 4k monitor

It has come to the point where I barely care enough about the settings to even fiddle with them. I'll usually go in and see what I can turn down just to get more fps. Some games look fine on low, medium and high, so I have no reason to play it on ultra.

this video is truly insightful, especially when you mentioned how low settings looked then compared to now.

I’m on an RX560 and LOVE playing around with settings to get more performance and make it look like high or ultra. Not much matters except shadows, shaders and textures (texture filtering is a hit and miss). Otherwise I find I can max everything but these and still stay in an acceptable range. 3440x1440 monitor. At the moment I use lossless scaling for my anti aliasing. Tbh I am not sure if it is actually better but it makes me feel cool!

Good video I am the same but I also like to save unnecesary heat output and electricity usage when the difference between medium high and ultra is barely noticeable these days.

My only regret from buying an R9 285 when it came out, was the I got one with only 2GB of VRAM. That severely limits the one quality setting I care the most about, and that's texture quality/resolution.

Same with GTX 770 - 4Gb still relevant; 2Gb - sad.

I rather have a benchmarking "standard" (like the ultra presets) that every media outlet uses, but not reflects the way you actually want to play a game, because: 1. I can compare benchmarks between different magazines, websites, users etc. 2. I just use benchmarks to compare the performance of a GPU and not the performance of a game. If want to know how to get the most fps at a good quality, I can look at a lot of guides online. 2b. I (and certainly 95% of the community) would buy a game, even if I can't run it on Ultra. Because I don't want to miss out on a great game and because I can certainly run it if I am within the recommended system requirements

I think standardizing the benchmarks is more important than getting a super accurate indication of performance off the bat. Imagine the struggles on getting a good comparision between hardware when everyone uses slightly different settings, oh boy.

Should reviewers show how hardware runs on a number of settings. I.e, New AMD card gets 70% performance of its rival, if you want to match the rival in terms of fps, you need to lower to say medium? (figures made up for example). I would honestly like that in a reviewer as a PC enthusiast.

Or they could put a little more effort in and benchmark BOTH ultra and medium/high settings. People who buy a 1060 aren't looking to play on ultra settings so a REVIEW shouldn't show only ultra. It is retarded and misleading.

Krytern UK I have the RX 480, gaming on 1080p Ultra and getting good framerates, so I'm sure plenty of GTX 1060 users care about Ultra.

you know I came into this video kind of sceptical but you actually made some really good points and convinced me. thanks to you I've decided I will buy that 3440x1440 34" 100hz freesync monitor and just turn down the settings only a little bit and still run games close to 100fps
