Dragon's Dogma 2 PC System Requirements Analysis 

"3GB high textures provide high res textures while everything above looks the same even 2GB still looks the same while 1gb starts to pop in and pop out sometimes." this is wrong. In fact, there are differences. It’s just that in kapkom games the texture quality is not applied to all textures at the same time, as in most games. For example, with medium textures, we may have most of the textures in high resolution, while some of the less significant textures on small objects will be in very poor quality. in fact, in Resident Evil there is no such thing as texture quality in the usual sense. There are only bad textures and good ones, without intermediate values. And the texture quality setting is not responsible for the actual quality of all textures, but for which part of the textures in the frame will be in high resolution and which in low resolution.

What about newer DOOM engine and it's 1000fps limit?

The setting he talks about doesn't really equate to higher quality textures. The setting in RE4R can be understood as a texture cache setting. The higher it's set the less pop in you'll get, but it comes at a hefty price. If you don't have a gpu with a lot of vram you'll get spillover and very slow loading textures as a result. Setting it to the 8gb maximum is only really recommended for gpus with at least 16gb of vram. It has been a while since i played it, but at 1440p with the setting turned up all the way to 8gb the game used somewhere around 15gb of vram on my 7900XT.

@@noobitonobombito9174 I didn't noticed anything out of place with high 3GB or even with high 2gb. High 1gb starts to pop in and pop out sometimes and going down to medium starts to degrade textures quality. Yeah I know how RE texture settings work i think Id tech engine and Northlight engine works the same.

@@UniverseGd I doubt we will ever see in other engines the miracle that the Id Tech engine has achieved. :)

Was my choice for buying an 4070 wrong. It cost almost 200 usd more here than the 7800xt.

​@@rhythmmandal3377yes

​@rhythmmandal3377 as long as you're happy with your card then it's fine 🙂

@@rhythmmandal3377 In long term it was probably a worse choice but not by so much that it will spoil your experience even with more AMD optimized games.

@@rhythmmandal3377 Depends. If you're all about the ray tracing and upscaling then you paid $200 bucks and lost 4GB VRAM for the privilege. If you're perfectly good with only light ray tracing effects and will die on the hill called "native rendering" then you got screwed. Games that is expected to sell better on console than on PC will always be very well optimized for AMD. Games that are expected to sell very well on PC (or are PC exclusive) will be very well optimized for Nvidia as long as Nvidia can hold their majority market share.

i just bought this combo lol

I also have a 7800 xt and play re 4. What cpu are you using?

@@timmyalley6621 I'm rocking a 5600g.

@@yvannenikolainethercott5709 is that at 1080p or 1440p?

@@timmyalley6621that's only 1080 my guy, that's why i'm bottlenecked by like 20% roughly

@@yvannenikolainethercott5709 yeah makes you wish there was a way it simply tells you what your bottleneck is and by how much. I’m using a 5700x with a 7800 xt and getting 160fps with ray tracing turned off.

I would say its optimized on all platforms otherwise it would work bad on PC.

​@@Extreme96PLit has some bugged setting on PC

it's true their screen space reflections for example can look pretty strange sometimes..but otherwise i like the RE engine alot. We need these costom engines because i dont want to play exclusively Unreal Engine games in the future...lol @@vith4553

​@@jesusbarrera6916Really? Which one?

It wasn't exactly what I expected it to be, but still an amazing game. The world and story were a lot smaller scale than I expected from an open world game, but the gameplay systems and mechanics are amazing.

it runs beautifully on deck!

@@yahootube90 That's because over half of the planned game was cut because of time&budget issues which makes it even more impressive that it ended up so good as it did.

Ya, when Daniel was talking about Interlace it brought memories of the Amiga Computer back in the late80s/early90s. You used it to double your vertical resolution; for example 640x200 -> interlaced 640x400... and it was annoying how it flickered....I wish computers were simplier yet powerful; on the intel/microsoft platform it is annoying and frustrating to use.

Confirmed DLSS so NVIDIA uses can dodge the broken TAA

I have that with a 6600 xt🥲

Mmmm no, maybe xbox series x, ps5 is weaker than a 6700 non xt / rtx 2080

@@silverwerewolf975ps5 is like rtx 2070, 2070ti

The PS5 and Series X are equivalent to a RTX 2070 Super in rasterization performance. While in raytracing performance a RTX 2060. There CPU’s are equivalent to a zen 1+ Ryzen 7 2700x.

@@silverwerewolf975Yet games run better on the PS5.

Buy it it's like $5 till the 12th.

thanks, yeah sorry english is not my native language. I will think about that next time. and edit the comment @@AbelMusa

@@telefonbarmann4514 it's not a form of upscaling. it's literally what the man said. i guess it's been about 12-14 years since any one ahd to worry over their tv being interlaced or progressive. but yes this dates back to early HD tv's. to take the load off the screen many tv's would use what is called interlaced signaling. meaning every odd line is drawn on screen first , then every even line is draw and that's followed by the lines being recombined to make the full image. while progressive is where Every line is drawn at the same time. so when they say interlaced on a video game , theya re talking about how the lines are half rendered then the other half is rendered and the two are then put together. but it's not upscaling . you are likely cofused because the video poster showed a comparison that said "native" on one side and Interlaced on the other. the way he did that is wrong. because interlaced is a NATIVE resolution the side of his comparison that said "native" should have said "normal" or "progressive" and for the record that is what the i or p at the end of the resolution means 1080p = 1080 progressive scan , 1080i = 1080 interlaced scan. so no it's not a form of upscaling. upscaling is where you take an image with less pixels then digitally upscale it to a iamge with morem pixels. with interlaced the native number of pixels are there already , it's jsut drawing half of them first then the other half.

bro what is this thing supposed to do? i see no difference in the comparison he showed even when i put the video quality to 1440p

It does.

Nevermind, I found it.

Different kind of interlacing, the 'Interlaced' mode reconstructs the game from half of the horizontal resolution. Wish the RE engine games used less confusing terminology for that mode.

It would, but do you even have a GPU with a VGA or S-Video output anymore?

@@219SilverChoc The net result is the same. On CRT monitors running in interlaced mode you only get half the picture updated on each refresh despite the graphics card rendering the whole frame. In engine interlacing you get the same end result despite the screen fully updating at each refresh.

@@andersjjensen interlacing on TVs is half vertical, the reconstruction method Capcom calls ‘interlacing’ is half horizontal. Combining both would mean that the image could look quarter res at times as the TV is jittering the top and bottom vertical lines, and when the reconstruction breaks itl show the internal half horizontal resolution. If the game was reconstructing from a half vertical resolution I would get your point to an extent but both would be affecting different axis of the image.

@@andersjjensen lol no but I do have a VGA to display port adapter for my CRT monitor I used from time to time for the nostalgia

Ya think GTX 1050ti would be capable of running DD2 ?

do you reckon 6500xt would do at least 30 fps?

@@caniwasteallyourtimeherein9728 With FSR probably up to 40 depending on other settings, we won't know until it's out. But I was able to run RE4 remake on the integrated graphics of and Ryzen 5600G at low 900p 30fps. RE engine is a worth successor to MT Framework, great graphics and great performance.

@@TheMaerx last RE Engine I played was re4 and yeah it is pretty well optimised especially with fsr, but dd2 is an open world with tons of new mechanics so I'm a bit nervous it's gonna lag like crazy. DDDA is my favourite game I'd cry if I can't play dd2 😭

@@caniwasteallyourtimeherein9728 It's all speculation until it comes out, the minimum requirements aren't that crazy considering it's a current gen exclusive and when compared to other current gen PC ports. I ran plenty of RE games with a Ryzen 5600G but I got an RX 5700 for 129$ on eBay a couple of months ago and I can't complain.

​@@caniwasteallyourtimeherein9728 RE4 remake recommended settings are quite on par with this game minimum settings, except for dd2 asking for more powerful CPUs. So if you could run RE4R at maximum settings, I think this should run too, otherwise it's a gamble.

Half of 4K is 1080p.

@@mmmmmmm3246 That's wrong. Both the horizontal and vertical pixel counts in 1080p are half the ones of 4K, thus making the total pixel count 4 times lower. 1440p is approximately half of 4K (that's why it's sometimes referred to as 2K)

4k is 4x 1080p

my guy i love my ally but if it’s at 25-30 on ps5 why tf would you think the ally can run this?

Mid range good for 1440p gaming for majority of titles. Just not a 4k GPU.

High end, but not premium, think that theres only 3 gpus better than that, and docens behind it...

It's mid range, 7800XT is actually the 7700XT renamed, look how it's competing with the RTX4070 instead of the 4080 or 4070Ti (like in the previous generation), you can also see it didn't get any real performance gain over the RX6800XT (its predecessor).

The 6800XT and 7800XT are what I would call high-end-1440, nearly-4K cards. It depends on the games and settings. Many "lesser" cards can be 4K cards as long as one avoids AAA games and/or too-high expectations. For example, while I'm waiting for a more permanent replacement for an ailing 2080Ti to arrive, I'm playing FF14 in 4K at medium-ish settings and getting ~80FPS with some minor stuttering in busy cities _running a 980Ti._ Is a 980Ti a 4K card in 2023? No, and I don't advocate using a card for a resolution that requires dropping a game's graphics settings into the low range. But if one must play games that are above his or her system's sweet spot, it can work.

@@silverwerewolf975 A few more than three, especially if you count previous generation cards. But it's in the top dozen.

They never test these games maxed out. They test them at console settings, and the consoles are 4 years old lower Mid-Range PCs now.

A 6GB 1060 will run it? I got a 1660 SUPER and idk whether it'll run it

@@mikeyhughes1999 Not sure if it will run it. But the minimum requirements have a GTX 1070 for 1080p 30fps. I assume that that's with high settings, but I'm not sure. It all depends on what settings they used to benchmark. The 1660, being newer than the 1070, should run the game fine (as long as the system requirements they posted are accurate).

If it’s CPU bound lowering the resolution does nothing. It could be 240p and still not hit 60 fps.

It will struggle because i could not hit 60fps in RE4 remake so upgraded from the same card to a 3060 and it runs great now.

I'll look it up. Thank you for the answer 👍

lol what - pc obvs

I'm trying to speculate how my laptop with rtx 3070 (max 140 watt) will perform with 1080p or 1440p if I aim for OK graphic settings and about 40-60 FPS. If RE4R is a good comparison and according to your comment, I am allowing myself a shred of optimism.

@@FrozenAXL remember to have it on SSD and you should be fine

@@mastazenkei Yeah I plan to, hopefully that will be enough :)
