Nah, the torch scene was in the first analysis. In the previous patch PS5 had higher fps and the res bottomed out at 1440p. They clearly mess up something, in the XB consoles res goes down and fps goes up. In PS5 both res and fps goes down, doesn't make sense.
Let's see if DF have tested reinstalling the game from the PS Store, that seems to fix most fps drops according to some people. If that is the case should hopefully be an easy fix.
Sounds like a terrible solution when it's obvious UBI messed up the PS5 patch altogether (see below). PS5 gamers should just stick with the nonpatched version, plain and simple.
Before Patch
After Patch
Going from 865 to 2668 torn frames, seems more like an UBI issue more so than a PS5 hardware issue. And going from 97.52% to 92.3% (16.67ms) frame count just proves Ubisoft ACV PS5 patch is garbage.
Why does the 5700XT have 2080Ti Performance in this title? Something is off here for Nvidia cards.Again Vgtech explains he did a test post patch it doesn't do first time. He used torch in a different scene than the Digitalfoundry one and he had some framerate dips not see the first time.
No one out of @Dictator found the torch performance impact. We will wait I think at the end the PS5 will perform the same in the same place. And if they want to reach a nearly perfect 60 fps they need to set the minimum resolution of DRS to 1080p. They will probably going under 865 torn frames.
On XSX the game rarley dip at 1080p and the average res is much higher.
In 30 fps Next generation console are nearly all the time in native 4k and it was probably the mode they wanted to release at first but after public reaction to 30 fps mode, they changed the target to 60 fps late during developement.
Next generation consoles have probably different settings than PC under ultra too but people forget the game requirement is high.

Some games/engines and combinations of driver simply favour one GPU architecture. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Or it is simply not optimized for Nvidia at all.
The point of OS APIs like DirectX is the software developers call the API and the API passes the calls to the driver. There shouldn't be a need to write code in a specific way for this hardware using this driver connected to this PC. There was a period of that but now it's thankfully back in the hands of the driver writers, hence Nvidia Game Ready drivers.
