On the other hand, our AMD Radeon RX Vega 64 had no trouble at all hitting 60fps. It’s also worth noting that AMD’s GPUs perform exceptionally well in this particular game.Īt 1440p/Ultra, our GTX980Ti was unable to offer a constant 60fps experience. Hitman 3 does not require a high-end GPU as most of our GPUs were able to offer a constant 60fps experience at 1080p/Ultra. Without it, we were dropping at mid 50fps at heavy-physics scenes with all of our eight CPU cores being used to their fullest. In order to get a constant 60fps experience at 1080p/Ultra, we had to enable Hyper-Threading on our i9 9900K. Hitman 3’s Glacier Engine appears to be scaling on more than 8 CPU cores/threads. At 4K/Ultra, the Intel i7 4930K performed similarly to the Intel i9 9900K. Although this particular CPU was bottlenecking our RTX3080, it pushed a minimum of 95fps and an average of 122fps at both 1080p/Ultra and 1440p/Ultra. Our Intel i7 4930K was also able to provide a smooth gaming experience. With Hyper-Threading enabled, our simulated quad-core was able to push a minimum of 34fps and an average of 87fps. Without Hyper-Threading, our simulated quad-core system also experienced awful minimum framerates. While the average framerate is a respectable 42fps, we were getting single-digit numbers during heavy-physics scenes. Our simulated dual-core system could not run the stress test smoothly. Cyberpunk 2077 requires at least a quad-core CPU. In order to find out how the game scales on multiple CPU threads, we simulated a dual-core, a quad-core and a hexa-core CPU. That scene has a lot of destructible objects, and feels more like a CPU stress test. For our CPU benchmarks, we used the Dartmoor scene. For our GPU benchmarks, we used the Dubai scene (which is representative of the in-game performance). Hitman 3 comes with a built-in benchmark tool.

There are also options for Variable Rate Shading, Motion Blur and Simulation Quality. PC gamers can adjust the quality of Textures, Level of Detail, Texture Filtering, SSAO, Shadows, Mirrors Reflections and SSR.


IO Interactive has added a few graphics settings to tweak. We also used Windows 10 64-bit, the GeForce driver 461.09 and the Radeon Software Adrenalin 2020 Edition 21.1.1 drivers. Powered by the Glacier Engine, it’s time now to benchmark it and see how it performs on the PC platform.įor this PC Performance Analysis, we used an Intel i9 9900K with 16GB of DDR4 at 3600Mhz, AMD’s Radeon RX580 and RX Vega 64, NVIDIA’s GTX 690, GTX980Ti, RTX 2080Ti and RTX 3080. IO Interactive has just released the latest part in its Hitman video-game series, Hitman 3.
