Available now on Steam.

So moving onto gaming and starting with A Plague Tale: Requiem where we see the 4070 performing just shy of the RTX 3080 by around 6%. Compared to the 6900 XT, the NVIDIA based card sits 1% higher in performance, with a slightly stronger 1% low figure as well, so it’s off to a fairly good start.

At 4K, the performance is pretty well matched with the 6800 XT, but again falls behind the RTX 3080, this time by around 10%. For me, I was just expecting a little more, though we’re only one game in at this point.
