In our testing, we currently use the mid-range RTX 2060 and uber high-end RTX 2080 Ti entering our graphics card lineup. In time we hope to have a Radeon RX 5700 graphics card for RTX 2060 VS RX 5700 comparisons.
#GEARS TACTICS REVIEW PC#
Starting with Metro Exodus, we began testing new PC games with Nvidia's latest RTX series of graphics cards. At OC3D our current test suite covers Nvidia's RTX 20-series and GTX 10-series alongside AMD's RX Vega and RX 500 series graphics cards. No gaming test suite would be complete without a large selection of GPUs. This system will be used in this review unless otherwise stated. The system below will be used to conduct the majority of our game testing. In this system, we are using an ASUS Strix X99 motherboard. This testbed will use 32GB of Corsair Vengeance DDR4 memory and will be powered and cooled by an HX1200i PSU and an H110i AIO liquid cooler respectively, with everything sitting inside a Corsair 460X chassis. Our primary test system uses Intel's X99 platform, containing an Intel Core i7 6850K at a fixed clock speed of 4GHz. This commitment to variety means that we will be using both Intel and AMD based testbeds as well as a range of GPU offerings from both Nvidia and Radeon. OC3D is a website that is dedicated to PC hardware, so you better believe that we test every game on a wide range of hardware configurations.
#GEARS TACTICS REVIEW DRIVERS#
These drivers are AMD's Radeon Software Adrenalin Edition 20.4.2 driver as well as Nvidia's Geforce 445.78 driver. When testing Gears Tactics, we opted to use the newest drivers from both the Radeon and Geforce camps. Variable Rate Shading - Is it Worth it? Optimisation Tips and Optimised Settings Tested Performance Scaling - Low, Medium, High and Ultra Settings CPU Performance - Do you need much grunt to kill those Grubs? PC System Requirements & Graphics Options Most users of modern hardware should be able to achieve 60 FPS framerates with our tips, which is great news for users of older graphics cards. In this analysis, we will be looking at Gears Tactic's performance across a range of PC hardware configurations and detailing the settings that PC gamers should use to boost their framerates on both old and new hardware. While Gears Tactics is very demanding at its highest settings, what we have here is a game that can scale to both high-end and low-end PC hardware, and with the low cost of Xbox Game Pass for PC, there is no reason why strategy fans shouldn't be picking this up. This game is Microsoft's confirmation that they are taking PC gaming seriously, and if we're honest, we believe them. An Xbox version of the game is planned, but it will come later. Unlike most Xbox Exclusive titles, Gears Tactics is releasing on PC first. Its the perfect move for Microsoft, especially if they want to earn the good graces of PC gamers. Move that camera back and allow players to control a squad instead of an individual Gear, and we already have the trappings of a turn-based tactics game. The Gears of War series already has a cover system built into the core of every title, utilises an incredibly versatile game engine with Unreal Engine 4 and already offers 3rd person gameplay. When you think about it, Gears Tactics makes a lot of sense. Gears Tactics is one of these new creative ventures from Microsoft, with Splash Damage and The Coalition taking the Gears of War franchise into a whole new genre, creating XCOM-style turn-based strategy title. Existing subscribers have nothing to lose when trying a new game on the service, and interesting takes on existing franchises and genres could help to bring a lot more players into the program.


When Microsoft announced Xbox Game Pass, they said that the program would allow their games studios to explore more creative projects.
