Just not enough time in this case - I only started testing the game last thursday and had 3 platforms to cover. I also do not own either of those GPUs so I could not possibly test them.
Good review!
worried for my 3070, but lets see what happens. I will take his advice to FR cap
Been playing this on my weird (downvolted 3080, 5800x3d) pc — performance isn’t astounding or anything but well within my expectations except for certain city scenes (for some reason the bar interior of all places is like 15fps.)
Contrary to some posters here I think this is a testament to ue5 — a small studio with a troubled sounding development released an amazing looking ambitious game that performs sorta tolerably. Didn’t used to be like this!

I wonder if you disable Nanite like you can in Silent Hill 2 and you get a performance bump in STALKER 2.
I just was running the opening but I was getting 46-73fps on a 2600x/2x8GB/2070 super and that was with everything on high but no ray tracing, upscaling, and at 1080p. Was gonna fiddle with it and try again...
I mean, it's Stalker. I know many were hoping it'd be some super polished AAA rendition of the old janky originals, but clearly the devs, even ignoring the obvious terrible struggles they'd have dealt with due to the geopolitics circumstances, were not gonna be the sort to overcome the UE5 jank.
There’s plenty of pc gaming channels and sites that cover that?
Meant optimized settings and actually putting the GPu through its paces like Alex so often did. He is much better at determining limiting factors than those guys who just crank up everything to a certain level and randomly run around with different GPUs.

You can get sushi at a gas station as well, but it doesn't mean it's the best.
Ok, this got a chuckle out of me, because there's literally a gas station about four miles from my house who has a legitimate sushi restaurant in it. Like, actually very good, with a proper sushi chef and blah blah. There's another gas station a mile from my house in the opposite direction, which has absolutely amazing street tacos too. I'm not sure what my area's fascination is with good gas station food, but somehow it's a thing. Thanks for the chuckle
Anyway, I also wish there were some "middle of the road" tested options as well. But to the point, there is plenty of data online now to suss out what a midrange card is probably going to offer for this game.
Tim at Hardware Unboxed, to me, does a great job as well.

Keep an eye on this channel, it's really good for optimised settings are arguably better than DF.
Only downside is not every game is covered.

In this channel , I make detailed benchmark videos and provide optimization guides for games. I break down and test each graphics setting to determine its performance and visual impact and to help you optimize the game and achieve playable performance while preserving the visual quality.
