The benchmarking continues.  There really needs to be a special place in the afterlife reserved for devs who build benchmark tools either into, or as a companion of, their game.  Next up, FFXIV Heavensward @ 4k, DirectX 11, settings maxed:

And the results.  Pretty good!  A solid 40fps:

Next up the venerable Resident Evil, complete with consoley feeling settings, which are funny to see in a PC benchmark…

Once again, 4k with all settings on super max:

And the results! I think this is good… (yes, it’s good) That said, desktop 980Ti testing has come in closer to 10k, so we’re about 20% off. I have to look into this, but I suspect we may be seeing the difference between the 6700HQ and 6700K here. There is a solid 500Mhz gap there and I am fairly confident that, even at 4k, RE6 is primarily CPU bound. In any event, still solidly playable!
