We will be including Far Cry 6 on GPU reviews moving forward, so future video card reviews will show FC6 performance specifically. This is not a video card comparison, it is focused only on the feature performance, and not image quality, on a Radeon RX 6800 XT and GeForce RTX 3080. This is a performance review, not an image quality review. We want to find the difference in performance they cost turning them on, and how each one affects performance. Our performance review today is focused very specifically on comparing the special graphical features in Far Cry 6 to each other. You will also find a download to install HD Textures, as well as TAA support, and HDR support. Notably, this is DXR Ray Tracing for Reflections and Shadows, as well as AMD’s FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR) support and AMD FidelityFX CAS.
