The AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT & RX 5700 Review: Navi Renews Competition in the Midrange Market
by Ryan Smith on July 7, 2019 12:00 PM ESTGrand Theft Auto V
Now a truly venerable title, GTA V is a veteran of past game suites that is still graphically demanding as they come. As an older DX11 title, it provides a glimpse into the graphically intensive games of yesteryear that don't incorporate the latest features. Originally released for consoles in 2013, the PC port came with a slew of graphical enhancements and options. Just as importantly, GTA V includes a rather intensive and informative built-in benchmark, somewhat uncommon in open-world games.
The settings are identical to its previous appearances, which are custom as GTA V does not have presets. To recap, a "Very High" quality is used, where all primary graphics settings turned up to their highest setting, except grass, which is at its own very high setting. Meanwhile 4x MSAA is enabled for direct views and reflections. This setting also involves turning on some of the advanced rendering features - the game's long shadows, high resolution shadows, and high definition flight streaming - but not increasing the view distance any further.

The legend is in Russian, but It's gonna be easy to figure out everything else. The first three is for decode, fourth and fifth for encode (ffmpeg fast/speed preset).

Just to let you know that AMD's Windows property drivers actually ain't in that good shape. I noticed based on Michael's Linux tests (OGL only for now) that RadeonSI open source how new AMD GPU's actually achieve better results compared to Nv cards with mature property drivers.https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&...
Naturally RadeonSI is also far from optimized for NAVI. Point is there's more to expect from driver optimisations in the future.
. Best regards.

Well, AMD is failing - the have no competitive mobile parts - CPU & GPU. How much is the market share of mobile vs desktop these days? In the company I work for, every new hire gets an Intel based Dell laptop and the towers are disappearing all the time.WaltC - Sunday, July 7, 2019 - link
If I had a nickel for every time I've heard "AMD is doomed" since 1999 I'd be worth considerably more than I am...;)just4U - Sunday, July 7, 2019 - link
If your count is on par with mine.. likely you'd be able to pay all your house bills for a couple of months!Zingam - Monday, July 8, 2019 - link
I didn't mean to say that AMD is doomed. I meant that way that AMD failed to deliver anything compelling for me - good, competitive, high performance mobile products.Korguz - Monday, July 8, 2019 - link
" failed to deliver anything compelling for me - good, competitive, high performance mobile products. "not yet you mean :-)

It also needs noting here that OEMs are getting ready to release some pretty impressive AMD mobile setups.. It was mentioned during trade shows over the past month. Their basically going to be hitting practically every sector pretty hard over the coming months... The Ryzen 2700U and 3750H look fairly solid to me..Korguz - Sunday, July 7, 2019 - link
Zingam.. " the have no competitive mobile parts - CPU & GPU " um is amd even launching mobile parts to day ?? nope.. maybe later in the year.. but not yet...evernessince - Monday, July 8, 2019 - link
TF does this have to do with this review?
