F1 2018 (DX11)

Succeeding F1 2016 is F1 2018, Codemaster's latest iteration in their official Formula One racing games. It features a slimmed down version of Codemasters' traditional built-in benchmarking tools and scripts, something that is surprisingly absent in DiRT 4.

Aside from keeping up-to-date on the Formula One world, F1 2017 added HDR support, which F1 2018 has maintained; otherwise, we should see any newer versions of Codemasters' EGO engine find its way into F1. Graphically demanding in its own right, F1 2018 keeps a useful racing-type graphics workload in our benchmarks.

We've updated some of the benchmark automation and data processing steps, so results may vary at the 1080p mark compared to previous data. Notably, for F1 2018 this includes calculating 99th percentiles from raw frame time output.

F1 2018 - 2560x1440 - Ultra Quality

F1 2018 - 1920x1080 - Ultra Quality

F1 2018 - 99th Percentile - 2560x1440 - Ultra Quality

F1 2018 - 99th Percentile - 1920x1080 - Ultra Quality

F1 is another solid showing for the GTX 1660 Ti, and while the lead over the RX 590 is less than most other games in the suite, it performs past the GTX 1070 FE mark to come closer to the RX Vega 56.

    "The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Review, Feat. EVGA XC GAMING: Turing Sheds RTX for the Mainstream Market"

    The same idea, restated:

    Why disable all AMD or NVidia specific settings? Any using those cards would have those settings on... shouldn't the number reflect exactly what the cards are capable of when utilizing all the settings available. You wouldn't do a Turing Major review without giving some numbers for RTX ON in any benchmarks that supported it...

    Yes, the test could be done with specific GPU features turned on, but you have to clearly say what are the advantage of each particular addition on the final image quality.
    Because you can have (optional) effects that cuts frame rate but increase the quality a lot. So looking only at the mere final number you may conclude that a GPU is better than another because it is faster (or just costs less), but in reality you are comparing two different kind of quality results.
    It's not different than testing two cards with different detail settings (without stating which they are) and then trying to understand which is the better one only based on the frame rate results (which is the kind of results that everyone looks at).

    load power consuption is wrong,if you want see only gpu measured,measured only gpu like techpowerup doing.
    its clear if you measure total load,its not show it right.

    134W 1660ti
    292W vega 56
    source:techpowerup

    its clear that gtx 1660 ti is much much better gpu for at least FHD and QHD also.

    huge different.

    Well, that however does not tell the entire story.
    The ratios versus the total consumption of the system is also important.
    Let's say that for a gaming PC you already have to use 1000W. A card that suck 100W more just wastes 10% more of your power. Meanwhile if your PC is using 100W, such a card will be doubling the consumption. As you see the card is always using 100W more, but the impact is different.

    Let's make a different example: your PC uses about 150W in everyday use. You have to buy an SSD. There are some SSD that consumes twice the power of others for the same performances.
    You may say that the difference is huge.
    Well, an SSD consumes between 2 and 5W. Buying the less efficient (5W) is not really going to have an impact on the total consumption of your PC.

    Coming from a GTX970 and playing on a 2560x1600 monitor, which card should I be looking at?
  • Ryan Smith - Monday, February 25, 2019 - link

    You'd likely want an RTX 2060, if not a bit higher with the RTX 2070.

    Price is still crap for the performance. We live in a age now that sees Hardware and software no longer growing. And a GPU from 2012 Can still run all modern games today. Market is not going to be huge for Overpriced GPUs that are really not that much of a improvement from 2012.

    Telemetry is growing. You are "your" data.
