So, with The Witcher 3 finally out, the first benchmarks for the PC version of the game will start appearing and with them the usual discussions between AMD and Nvidia fans. And I wanted to see some of that here but free of console fans.
Because of that, I decided to not make a thread about them but to post here the first of those benchmark reviews of The Witcher 3, directly from the site PCGamesHardware.de.
Results at 1920x1080 at MAX settings with HairWorks off and HBAO+ replaced for SSAO
The results are clear: To get the best experience, use an Nvidia card... but one of the new ones!
Because, while the TitanX, GTX 980 and GTX 970 are the fastest cards, with AMD's 290 and 290X almost tied to the 970, the performance of the older Nvidia cards are surprisingly poor. The 780Ti is 9 fps slower than a 290X, but even more bizarre is the fact that in this game an AMD R9 285 card will give you the same average fps as the original Titan card.
Please excuse my bad English.
