RTX On Off comparison on the futuristic FPS Ghostrunner

Google

In October 2019, we talked about the game Ghostrunner, a futuristic FPS style Mirror’s Edge with RTX ray tracing. The title, developed by One More Level, 3D Realms and Slipgate Ironworks and edited by All in! Games, must land during the course of the year at a date for the unknown moment. If you want to test it, a demo is available until May 13th.

RTX On vs Off Comparison !

It weighs 4.2 GB. The minimum configuration indicated is very modest. The Steam page recommends an Intel Core i3-2100 or AMD A8-5600k processor, an NVIDIA Geforce GTX 630 or Radeon HD 6570 and 8GB of memory. But this demo is also the opportunity to see what the RTX tracing ray of the title gives. On a slightly more muscular configuration, it goes without saying.

"Crucible, the game of Amazon, released on May 20, here are the required configurations."

No DLSS 2.0

The Dsogaming site delivers the comparative screenshots above: without RTX and with RTX. All this has been captured in Ultra. The machine mobilized to run the app is armed with an Intel Core i9-9900K processor, an NVIDIA RTX 2080 Ti graphics card and 16 GB of DDR4-3600.

Unfortunately, the impact on performance is not negligible. The above configuration has no difficulty running Ghostrunner at 60 fps in 2560 x 1440, completely, without RTX. On the other hand, when RTX effects are activated, the frame rate per second varies between 47 and 60.

The same observation below, with a configuration based on a Core i5-4690K and a RTX 2070. The game also runs in Ultra. There is no frame count per second, but visible framerate falls are regular.

Surprisingly, the title does not support DLSS 2.0. A technology that, as we saw on Minecraft RTX, is nevertheless life-saving when ray tracing is activated. It is therefore hoped that the developers will rely on the feedback obtained through the demo to continue optimizing their production by its release.
