Most of us have probably polished off Capcom's next-gen zombie shooter by now, but if you're in the market for a graphics card and haven't, the eighth main entry in the long-shuffling franchise is a nice bonus.

As for Far Cry 6 , Ubisoft's delayed game is earning a tonne of buzz right now. We're closer than ever to the title's October 7 release , and if you were going to stump up for it anyway, AMD could save you some pennies. In classic Far Cry style, there's a reinvention on the cards, with the lush jungles of Yara holding host to the latest outing.

There's obviously a catch. They're reportedly in low stock right now, but if you can nab one from a qualifying vendor, AMD will send you the claim codes for both Far Cry 6 and Reisdent Evil Village - at no extra cost. The latest bundle was announced recently, with gaming desktops like the Ryzen and being paired with a Radeon RX graphics card. All of the above still stands, but now, the standalone XT cards are added to the party.

This kind of promo has been around before, but this time, critics have called out the fact AMD is limiting it to relatively high-end and costly purchases.

As others have pointed out, the graphics cards are rarely in stock anyway. Previous article. Next article. A tech enthusiast since ever. I like to always be up to date on the latest news in the industry and write about it. Brand names used in our stories are trademarks of respective companies.

New updates are being added at the bottom of this story… Original story published on November 10, follows: The successful FPS Far Cry 6 is experiencing some issues on its story mode and its inner store. Source Basically, the reports indicate that the game would not be tracking well the progress of the objectives. Black Market not refreshing or empty Another issue reported by Far Cry 6 players is related to the Black Market the in-game store. Source This means that Black Market will not receive new items until the issue is resolved.

Ubisoft is aware of both issues Currently, Ubisoft is already aware of both bugs and working on a solution. Meanwhile, AMD provided early access to its We've used that for our testing, as it minimizes variation and keeps things simple.

We tested each card multiple times at each setting, discarding the first run after launching the game — that run usually scores better as the GPU hasn't warmed up yet and can boost slightly higher. For this initial look we used a preview version of the game provided by AMD and Ubisoft. We've since gone back to retest a few cards with the public release, and didn't notice any significant changes in performance.

We've tested at p, p, and 4K using the medium and ultra presets. We left off the HD textures at medium and enabled them for ultra. We enabled CAS as well, mostly because I like the way it looks and it has a negligible impact on performance, left off motion blur, and only tested at native resolution — though I did run some additional tests with FidelityFX Super Resolution to see what sort of scaling users can expect.

We'll provide a deeper dive into the settings and image quality below, but let's get straight into the graphics card benchmarks. We've also added the newly launched Radeon RX to the charts now. We can't say for certain what's holding the Nvidia GPUs back, but the fastest cards can't even hit fps at p medium.

Actually, if we're being frank, none of the cards maintain close to a steady fps experience — AMD's fastest GPUs average around fps, but minimums all hover in the low s. Nvidia's GPUs currently top out at around fps. There are also some weird variations among the GPUs at this admittedly low setting. Basically, the CPU bottlenecks combined with different GPU core counts and other elements mean that cards that are normally slower can end up outperforming higher-end models. Again, updated Nvidia drivers, in particular, will likely improve the situation, but this is how things currently stand.

Anyway, it manages a reasonable 44 fps at p medium, and dropping the settings to low should give it an added boost. If you're after 60 fps or more, just about any reasonable mid-range or higher GPU released in the past five years should more than suffice. Most of the tested GPUs take a relatively small hit going from p to p at medium settings. Everything from the RTX and above clears 60 fps, which means cards like the GTX and should manage okay as well at these settings.

It seems my well-used sample was acting up, though even with the improved results the RTX still delivered a superior experience at p, which is not normally the case. This is also the last setting where most of the 4GB cards can deliver a decent experience, and the GTX Ti basically can't go much further. It performs about the same at p ultra, but the card was never really intended for high-resolution gaming. Finally, we get the usual range of performance and rankings that we'd expect, with a few minor quibbles.

The RTX Ti still edges out the — and we're using the Founders Edition models, so it's not like we have an exceptionally overclocked Ti, or even a great cooler for that matter — but nearly everything else lands in the usual spot. It's finally worth discussing the AMD vs. Nvidia standings, as CPU bottlenecks aren't a factor here.

We're not using the HD textures for our medium quality testing either, which helps a bit. Kicking the settings up to ultra quality and enabling the HD texture pack generally results in slightly worse performance than p medium, though interestingly, there are some exceptions to that rule. The bottom half of the chart, roughly, has GPUs that performed better at p ultra, while the cards in the top half appear to hit a different bottleneck. Ultra quality increases the load on the CPU, so the maximum fps on our iK drops from around at medium to fps at ultra.

Of course, other factors may also come into play, but for the most part, you can choose between p medium and p ultra — or perhaps p ultra with FSR enabled — and get a similar experience. Depending on your GPU, p ultra roughly equals 4K medium performance, but now we get even more oddities, particularly with the minimum fps on the Nvidia GPUs.

Again, these are pretty clearly driver issues that are likely to be ironed out, as the RTX had the highest average fps but a lower minimum fps than the next six Nvidia GPUs. That card did okay at p ultra, but performance drops by more than half moving up to p.

As you'd expect, 4K ultra punishes a lot of the GPUs. And we haven't even maxed out the settings yet with ray tracing, so let's just go ahead and do that next.
