Available now on Steam.
So kicking things off with A Plague Tale: Requiem and the 4070 Ti SUPER isn’t off to the best start at 1080p with just a single FPS difference higher than the 4070 Ti non-SUPER, though the SUPER does manage to increase the 1% lows by a more respectable 5% though in all honesty, I was expecting a lot more.
At 1440p we do see a slightly better increase in performance, but at just 2%, it’s not groundbreaking by any means and the 1% lows don’t improve at all so the higher core counts don’t offer much in this title at this resolution.
Then at 4K, the margin grows to 6% in favour of the Ti SUPER, now sitting at 50 FPS so a better gameplay experience, but still below my expectations and shows no movement in the chart whatsoever.
