At the end of chapter 2 when mendez throws leon into a wall the exact second Leon hit the wall it made the game crash it was one of the funniest things that ever happened to me in a game 😂
RE Engine is truly mysterious. On one hand, it has some absolutely astonishing visuals, particularly the character models. But on the other hand it showcases hilariously bad textures and oh my god the screen space reflections are just an abomination. I hope one day Capcom can iron out all these issues
SSR have been in games for quite some time by now and people never even mentioned its downsides at all until Nvidia started selling their "real" lighting. I understand them though, they're a corporation, and if selling bullshit makes money, they'll do it.
One other thing about Hair Strands is when it's enabled there's a rain splashing / bouncing off hair effect that's missing entirely from Leon, Ashley and other characters. this effect is only visible with hair strands disabled.
@@ShikiRyougi05 whenever Leon and Ashley are outside it looks like a wig. It barely moves and its super weird and opaque. Especially when its raining...
Thank you for the video, I was pulling my hair out thinking it was my system for some of these crashing issues. Glad I get to fix these issues with your suggestions while I'm only 1/4th through the game
I just figured it was ray-tracing, since a lot of games run terribly with it or have weird issues, so I just turned it off when I started having crashes and it instantly solved my problem.
Fantastic guide as always Alex. Oh, BTW, at 4:06: you can actually fix (some) of these DLSS issues by disabling motion blur and depth of field. Saw it on some Steam Guide.
Whoa. Capcom should really send you a cheque for your consulting services, doing the detailed diagnostics of performance and IQ issues that they apparently didn't bother with.
@@guybrushthreepwood8174 Why? They've made multiple games with this engine and they have ignored the issues for years. Why expect better from a dev that has proven they aren't going to address issues like this?
longtime viewer and I just wanna say you guys are the absolute best and actual wizards. thanks for looking out for all us pc freaks all these years 🥹❤️
I can not emphasize enough how improtant your PC Breakdown/Optimised Settings videos are, Alex. Excellently informative for both players and developers, you get the word out what people want and expect of their purchases in 2023 and you also make me feel better when I'm pulling my hair out over why the shiny new game I bought runs like crap.
That's because the scope is a true scope, unlike most video game scopes that zoom in the entire game view, the re4 scopes actually render the game a second time at a lower resolution, allowing the view inside the scope to be zoomed in while the view around it is not. You can tell because the scope actually displays a lower lod and framerate than the world still visible around its edges. The same thing is done in escape from tarkov and players complain about scopes tanking framerate in that game as well.
@@robertewans5313 I guess that's cool from a technical standpoint but personally I don't care how the scope zooms as long as the screen gets zoomed in. A sniper is a sniper and I'll hit more shots if the games framerate doesn't tank.
For whoever is using the DLSS mod, to fix the flashing reflections you have to enable TAA in the game options, then "Allow engine TAA" in the mod settings. It's not a problem with DLSS, this game engine has a problem with some reflections when TAA is disabled
So many settings are left out here. What about the so-called resource heavy lighting and effect settings and dismemberment and corpse-count settings? This video felt rushed.
Hey Alex, in terms of the specular highlight problem, I found it to be almost completely relieved by disabling bloom with the dlss mod during my playthrough. The specular highlight problem does seem to get worse over the playthrough due to more specular highlights appearing in new areas, however, as mentioned disabling bloom does fix this with the mod to some degree. Hope this helps!
Cyberpunk 2077 has the same issue. Enabling DLSS causes specular highlights to flare up in the exact same manner and to fix it you need a mod to disable bloom, as there is no menu option for that.
I was wondering why these people's eyes are flickering in the story cutscene, thanks, but it doesn't remove all, some still have the specular highlight problem, damn now I have to choose between bloom effect or more FPS...
I've found that with RT ON, you kinda have to be in the white VRAM Usage, and even then you may crash. (RTX 3080) You can also run game in exclusive fullscreen, and alt-tab in and out to test the stability. You'll find out quite quickly if your truly stable or not. As video suggests though, just turn RT Off and don't look back.
I used the REFramework mod to inject DLSS in the game and it looked dramatically better. The RE Engine games running with DLAA, in particular, are a sight to behold.
@@lautaro3365 Use DLSS version 2.5.1. DF actually specifically recommended that version for the exact same reason on their Half Life RT video, and it's the same thing on REFramework
Great vid, thanks. And props for using Frank Klepacki's "Drill" as the theme (it's from Command & Conquer 95, if anyone's wondering). Absolute BANGER. The entire OST is.
I was overall fairly satisfied with the performance on my PC, although I went without ray tracing. Only notable issue was the village section in the rain and the hedge maze in the castle - both of those sections put a ton of stress on the fps, and I dipped below 60 in those two areas fairly consistently
Exact same here. Was playing Ray tracing and hit the rain section in the village and it tanked my pc then got consistent crashes. Just decided to go without Ray tracing for the rest of the game, a little disappointing but overall the game was absolutely amazing.
Glad to see I wasn't the only one with bad performance in that section. I'm playing on a 2022 Legion 5i with RTX 3060 140w and 12700H. I have every setting maxed out at 1440p except for textures at 3GB and RT off, 60 FPS cap. That's the only area in the game when the weather ramps up where I felt my system was struggling. Everything else was fine.
@@jzea5605 I set the rain to low which pretty much fixed it for the most part. I've tested that area of the game on an RTX 2070 (non-super) and Intel A750. The Intel VERY MUCH struggled here even on the RE4 optimized driver. With the rain on high and regular use of a scope (The scope is very problematic on Intel GPUs for some reason), I was seeing mid-20 fps, and around the 40s on my RTX 2070. Most of the time the game runs great on both GPUs, maybe 5-10% better on Intel depending on scenario, but some of those areas just unnecessarily destroy performance.
Same. I would actually turn on fsr2 really quickly so I don't have input lag in those sections. It would get pretty sticky feeling when it would drop. The 1% lows I was seeing were close to 30s. Felt pretty rough.
Thanks Alex, totally agree with installing the DLSS mod, but I wish capcom would fully implement it instead as the menu and even the crosshair is glitchy
Also the textures look a bit weird as internal resolution goes down, they look grainy, kinda like oversharpened. I fixed it by using DLSS Tweaks and setting a custom resolution ratio for DLSS. Now textures look better but I don't get the usual performance boost so yeah, native DLSS support is much needed in this game. Btw, you can fix scope by disabling motion blur.
@@clipper9580 You were right. The thing is, The value needed was much lower than what was recommended in the reddit thread. I set a value of -3.0000 for a custom 0.72 DLSS ratio and now the game looks perfect. Huge thanks!
I've been using the DLSS mod on a 3080 10gb and the only time i'm not near 100fps+ is the village when it's raining and super refractory/shiny. 1000% recommend it. It looks better than native cause it's so much smoother looking. This is at 3840x1600 resolution as well.
@@softlock231 Don't forget you can use DLSSTweaks and force DLAA or set a custom resolution for better quality. I like DLSS at 80% render scale instead of 66.7%.
I have the same card , i can run the game perfect, everything high some max and at 6gb texture, is on red but zero crashes , looks amazing but ray tracing must be off , the minute i turned RT on even at lower settings it starts crashing very bad . But overall is a beautiful graphical game , a masterpiece
While I didn't suffer from crashes, I did notice my frames tanking to the low 20s during the village defense whenever I selected medium quality (0.5) textures on my laptop RTX3050ti, it's probably a VRAM issue so no much I can do there. Nevertheless I'm going to follow your optimized settings and see if maybe I can turn it up to medium again, so thanks!
Dif hardware of course but for me on my 3080 turning off RT stopped all crashing. I can run with everything else maxed out. Got about 7 hours playtime with no crash. Then I tried running it with RT set to medium and it crashed in 10-15 mins.
I'm running a GTX 1070 and my frames dip to 54 in the village defense scene. My card has 8GB VRAM. I'm surprised your much newer card tanked that hard compared to mine, although im only running at 1080p.
Cheers for the heads up on the DLSS mod, just installed it and it took less than 10 mins to figure that out and the LOD bias in Nvidia inspector. Now we just need a similar mod for Elden Ring.
The way you change weapons (clearly designed for dpads) and VR version being exclusive to PSVR2 as always are just essentially saying this game was not made with PC in mind at all.
Or play the 2005 version with the HD Project fan patch wait for a sale after the game has been fixed if you still want it. There is no excuse at this point as all the numbered Resident Evil games have had PC releases from the beginning.
Just wish you'd incorporate Steam Deck optimized settings alongside standard PC settings. Thank you for another wonderful deep dive and hopefully Capcom gets their act together.
Who the fuck would play on a steam deck? Dudes....steam deck is not cool and you're not "more mature" for buying a steam deck over an OLED Switch. You are better off buying a PS5 over a Steam Deck and the price difference is not huge. You steam deck kids are hilarious. Your little low-end hand held PC trying to run AAA graphics intense games where you end up sub 30fps with 40 minutes of battery life. If you want a real handheld, buy a Switch OLED. You'll get 5-7 hrs of battery life out of it (way more than you need) and the games look good enough and it's not as massive and bulky and the OLED screen is WAYYYYY SUPERIOR to the steam deck. Anything else, just buy a PS5 for 500 bucks and enjoy gaming in 4k with ray tracing. It's not that expensive. Steam Deck is a major disappointment. A lot of you got scammed into thinking you were going to basically have a super powerful Switch. Nope, you got a low/mid range handheld crappy PC screen that has to be tethered to an outlet to get any real playtime out of it because the battery doesn't match the wattage output of the system. Trashy product.
Dlss mod saved the day for me! He mentions the weird water reflection that happens with dlss, and all you have to do to get rid of it, is TURN OFF BLOOM. With the dlss (on quality) mod I get better image, near maxed out settings (no rt, no reason for it), and medium or high shadows on a 3070 laptop. 4k.
Well worth using interlacing at 4K for a 30% performance boost, barely notice any difference in image quality. Lower resolutions, not so much. And FSR is absolute trash here.
Another thing people aren't mentioning is stuff in the background / on other screens. If you are watching a stream/youtube video on your other monitor and have turned NVidias "Super Resolution" stuff on... Its hammering your GPU at the same time as the game is, and fighting for resources.
Ah thanks for this. I've just been running the game maxed out with RT on with FSR 2.0 but had to turn textures down all the way to 1gb to stop crashes. The game still looks great like this but glad to know what settings I can dump. Also, the weird bright spots you noticed with the DLSS mod happen just the same with FSR 2. I've had tons of times where a big bright reflection spot will screw with my eyes and make me think I saw an item pick up prompt. Going to be downloading that REframework when I get home. Would much rather have DLSS.
Great breakdown! It breaks my heart you that guys have to censor to this degree just to show gameplay. The policies of modern RUclips are genuinely insane.
I'm pretty glad to see you guys covering this. I've been dealing with a lot of crashes out of nowhere to the point where I decided to just wait for a patch because I wasn't a big fan of the required compromises. There are plenty of people in the forums having the same issue, but there are a lot of people blaming them for having bad drivers or something, when it seems like it's a software problem with the game.
I've been having an amazing time with this game. I've had no issues thus far on max everything. It's remarkably polished. It's great to see a game come out in a finished state. Thank you for the video!
The soft image while upscaling is due to the game engine not performing viewport jitter, which is necessary for high quality temporal upscaling. This is something that the mod specifically adds and even offers an adjustment for it. For what it's worth, God of War and Uncharted both have this same problem (other games as well, these are just some high profile examples.)
great content as always. Appreciate immensly the effort you put into these. Unrelated note- how is a blood splatter not yt friendly, to the point you blurr it out, but the outro featuring half burned corpse on the cross is just dandy? xd
Using Alex's settings going from max or close enough I went from 106fps at 4k in my current safe room up to 165fps. Then around 160-190fps in the grand hall of the cathedral. Next thing to check is looking into injecting DLSS cus that looks a lot nicer than Native here.
I barely reach the recommended specs yet I average 60-70 fps with the highest settings (minus RT). The only issue is some texture popping, but still I'd say its a very good PC release.
Thank you for reporting these texture issues. I noticed them when the demo was released but was wondering why not many complained about it. Based on Capcom's track record (remember those stutters in RE8?), I doubt they'll fix it on priority.
It definitely seems like it would be unintended behaviour. Especially the thing where different display resolutions completely change the resolution of certain textures at different cache sizes, that's just weird. You wouldn't design that setting to work this way intentionally, not unless your goal was to confuse people lol.
On Chapter 5 where the game is at night time and with rain, there is a section (back in the village) where I cant get 60fps on my 2070s no matter what settings I use. Seems to be related to the rain since I never get any other performance drops like this later on the game.
If you fire up a performance overlay you'll probably notice that your gpu is barely doing any work. I had 40-50% utilization during that section of the game.
@@Doi4in yes pretty much the same with my card, I've test the area with multiple settings and my GPU gets like 70% unless I use a scope, after that my frames just die to the mid 30s and 99% of GPU
What bugs me the most is the input delay with VSYNC on. No matter if using the in-game option or Nvidias control panel. Without VSYNC I have unbearable tearing and with on my mouse input lag is so hard I can't aim as well as I should :/
I truly hope Capcom will add support for DLSS 2 (either 3.1.11 or 2.5.1) and fix the VRAM crash issue. Hopefully we will get some news from the devs themselves?
Capcom has heavy partnership with AMD, they have NEVER added DLSS to any of their resident games after more than 2 years )all their games use FSR) so our only way to use it is with framework (and trust me, it's absolutely worth it the game looks much better than native and higher fps than FSR itself lmao)
@@doomslayer8985 They should just break up the partnership then. You dont partner up with companies using inferior technologies such as FSR which is absolute garbage.
This is the funniest Optimized Settings video yet. Better image quality with a mod, reproducing Capcom's crashes for them, nonsensical texture behavior. What a ride!
I disabled Ray Tracing, as I always do, and had a phenomenal experience with the game. It was silky smooth all the way, everything set to 1440p/Ultra. Looked gorgeous and had consistently high framerates on 10900k and RTX 3080.
RT is such an overrated gimmick honestly. SSR algorithms got much better over the years that unless you stop your character and pan the camera around instead of playing the dam game you will hardly notice. The performance tradeoff is simply not worth it and as AB pointed out RT can in some instances like this game introduce other artifacts and IQ issues so the costs outweigh the benefits with RT. RT never immersed me more in a game than not having it turned on. I wish devs focused less on RT and more on actually optimizing the damm thing
I have a 9700k and 2070 Super playing it pretty much almost max settings (No RTX) and never had any issue whatsoever tbh. No crashes, maybe the odd FPS drop, but game runs like a dream for me to be honest
I've been completely shocked by how well it's been running on my 2080 super. The only time I get a frame drops seems to be around the merchant oddly enough.
The image is horrifically unstable otherwise is why, uniquely so with RE engine games. 7 doesn't just have aliasing if you disable the aa, the game straight up wobbles. I've never seen it before in other games. They use that TAA/FXAA combo by default because they need both to stabilize the image completely. It shouldn't be that way, but it is, and why I have no idea. RE Engine is an odd duck.
TAA and FXAA used individually or in combination make it look like you smeared Vaseline all over your screen. I much prefer a bit of aliasing to not being able to see anything because of the blur.
Game runs beautifully on my PC 👏 3600x + 3060Ti, 16GB Gskill Trident Z. It did not crash for me at all since I began playing it over 8 hours of play time. The only time it crashed was when I played with the FSR setting in the menu while in game. I put RT off after some testing as it didn't make too much of a visual difference as Alex found here. Again, this game looks absolutely amazing and is so realistic! I haven't even downloaded the DLSS mod yet! As an OG from the 2005 RE4 days, I am extremely pleased with the remake 🥰😍❤
I'd love to see what Alex would come up with for a 2060 6gb, it's been a really mixed experience so far. I've had some really nasty level of detail issues with this game in the farm area directly after the village. I might wait for the next patch...
No patch is gonna fix your issue. You simply have rather insufficient VRAM. And it’s been confirmed already that two sections of the game tank really hard (the main section of the village at night and raining) and I doubt it’ll get resolved but those sections thankfully aren’t long.
I also have a 2060 and I understand it's a dated GPU, but I feel like this game looks abnormally bad compared to how much resources it needs. I'm running it on nearly lowest settings to really get stable framerate and a lot of the textures literally look like something out of PS2. This PC runs Doom Eternal maxed out or Forza Horizon nearly maxed out or Death Stranding maxed out on 1080p and those games look miles better than RE4R. Regardless I'm loving the game, it's very enjoyable, but the performance is really terrible. I'll try these optimized settings, maybe that will help.
@@invisuu6280 well it’s no surprise a game at lowest settings looks bad… however I will say this game does run abnormally bad for it to not look much (if at all) better than RE8 or even DMCV.
Playing this now on my 4090 with everything max, fsr2 on, didnt had a singel crash yet and works flawless. Seams like its very different exp all cross the board depending on whish hardware u got
Thanks Alex. I didn't know the RE Engine tool existed. So next thing I am gonna do is add it. I worked out the Vram and RT stuff myself but had no idea the SSR was a waste of time either. Another great vid, thank you.
This goes to show how insane nvidias persistence to stick with 8gb is. Unless you want a 3060, the next card with good enough memory for it's power is a 3090! I have a 2060 super and the fact that not a single reasonable upgrade path (amd asside) could run this game without hitting the same limit is insane.
@@speng5821 I just wished amd kept up to date with productivity features and I'd skip over in a heartbeat. I do 3d art, vfx, and some gamedev like stuff and amd simply can't keep up. For games alone it's a no brainer
@@matkorkes1304 you still have to lower settings. RT isn't bugged, the Vram counter is bugged to only be relative to RT on. Why buy a powerful RT capable card if you have to turn down settings and turn off RT just because there's no memory? I already have to turn down settings on my 2060 super, not to save performance, but to save vram. A 4070 has the exact same amount!
Chromatic aberration is an optical effect that has long been considered a flaw in lenses and cameras. However, in the world of video games, this effect can actually enhance the player's experience. When used correctly, chromatic aberration can make a game more immersive and visually striking. Firstly, chromatic aberration creates a sense of depth perception by exaggerating the distance between objects. This can be particularly useful in first-person shooter games where accuracy and attention to detail are crucial. In these types of games, chromatic aberration can help the player differentiate between objects at varying distances and allow for better aim and strategy. Additionally, chromatic aberration adds a level of realism to the game's graphics. This effect mirrors the way light travels in the real world, creating a more authentic and believable environment. For example, if a player is exploring an abandoned warehouse, chromatic aberration can create a dusty and grimey atmosphere that further immerses the player into the game's world. Furthermore, chromatic aberration can be used to highlight important visual elements in a game. By distorting the colours of certain objects, players can more easily focus on what they need to, such as a key item in a puzzle game. This can also be used to simulate different lighting conditions, such as the way sunlight filters through the leaves of a tree, making for a more dynamic gameplay experience. While it's true that chromatic aberration can be overused and become distracting, when used tastefully and in moderation, it has the potential to greatly enhance the player's experience. It can create a sense of realism, improve depth perception, and guide players' attention. As the gaming industry continues to evolve, we can expect to see more innovative uses of chromatic aberration in modern video games.
Watching the vid now, but I have to say I was blown away at the quality of this port. I've got ray-tracing on, everything maxed, and the game just looks and runs utterly stunning on my LG CX. This may end up being my favorite game of the year. It's really brought me back to when I was a college freshman holed up in my dorm playing the original game back in '05.
There’s always that one guy that feels like he has the need to tell everyone how well a game runs for him despite evidence from everyone else. Cope on full tilt.
@@NotCharAznable With everyone else, are you refering to the less than 3% of people that had actual errors on the game? Theres definitely problems and I will not deny that, but if you say a minority is the majority then thats not a good point. Want to see an actual bad port? Try The Last of Us Part I. Want to see another bad port? Try Wild Hearts and Wo Long Fallen Dynasty Want to see a slightly worse port? Try Hogwarts Legacy. Literally the best port of the year, I would even say in the last two years. Even Dead Space has port issues and it involves more than just graphics, it can brick your save file.
Why is there this many issues? I get that PC has a massive range of specifications but that doesn't excuse a company like Capcom to figure it out. We need to demand better.
Especially other ports this year, imagine how bad it is when this is in the better side on the spectrum. Then you get games like Wild Hearts or TLoU Part 1 PC ports which are terrible, arguably even worse than Batman Arkham port. Hogwarts Legacy and Dead Space also had crashing and performance issues.
“Looks incredibly awful” sounds like an opinion not a professional critique, the drama aspect of this channel is really starting to emerge and it worries me.
You know how some people get hot wings and snacks to enjoy the Super Bowl.... That is how I expect to enjoy Alex's TLOU video. This video was great! But I am really looking forward to the next one :D I would not be surprised if that video is 2 parts.
The biggest issue with the crash is that other RE engine games will run just fine if you go over the VRAM limit. Yes, you'll get hitches, but in a lot of cases, the hitches will only happen in very specific scene changes, and some users may be fine with these once in a while (going 1GB over in RE8 has very little performance impact in all but very few scenarios). For some reason, in RE4 it just crashes. :/
Yes. I could run re8 with 3070 on high settings with rt on, it was often maxing out vram. But I had neither major perf issues nor crashes. And this game has a better rt implementation then re4 remake.
Thank God you talked about the texture quality the fact that some stuff looked ultra blurry while the rest looked sharp was driving me crazy, you are the best.
I'm surprised he didn't mention the extreme ghosting caused by TAA on PC. It makes the two AA settings basically worthless, forcing you to use one of the subpar FSR options.

Another thing that's abs crazy is the sniper scope that tanks 25-30 frames when looking through it.
And it looks like the digital zoom of an old nokia lol
That's because the scope is a true scope, unlike most video game scopes that zoom in the entire game view, the re4 scopes actually render the game a second time at a lower resolution, allowing the view inside the scope to be zoomed in while the view around it is not. You can tell because the scope actually displays a lower lod and framerate than the world still visible around its edges. The same thing is done in escape from tarkov and players complain about scopes tanking framerate in that game as well.
@@robertewans5313 I guess that's cool from a technical standpoint but personally I don't care how the scope zooms as long as the screen gets zoomed in. A sniper is a sniper and I'll hit more shots if the games framerate doesn't tank.

For whoever is using the DLSS mod, to fix the flashing reflections you have to enable TAA in the game options, then "Allow engine TAA" in the mod settings.
It's not a problem with DLSS, this game engine has a problem with some reflections when TAA is disabled
All I did to fix it was turn off bloom. Didn't get that anymore and finished the game today
So many settings are left out here. What about the so-called resource heavy lighting and effect settings and dismemberment and corpse-count settings?
This video felt rushed.
Hey Alex, in terms of the specular highlight problem, I found it to be almost completely relieved by disabling bloom with the dlss mod during my playthrough. The specular highlight problem does seem to get worse over the playthrough due to more specular highlights appearing in new areas, however, as mentioned disabling bloom does fix this with the mod to some degree. Hope this helps!
Correct. That is the solution!
Cyberpunk 2077 has the same issue. Enabling DLSS causes specular highlights to flare up in the exact same manner and to fix it you need a mod to disable bloom, as there is no menu option for that.
I was wondering why these people's eyes are flickering in the story cutscene, thanks, but it doesn't remove all, some still have the specular highlight problem, damn now I have to choose between bloom effect or more FPS...
I've found that with RT ON, you kinda have to be in the white VRAM Usage, and even then you may crash. (RTX 3080) You can also run game in exclusive fullscreen, and alt-tab in and out to test the stability. You'll find out quite quickly if your truly stable or not. As video suggests though, just turn RT Off and don't look back.
I used the REFramework mod to inject DLSS in the game and it looked dramatically better. The RE Engine games running with DLAA, in particular, are a sight to behold.
Which DLSS version you used? I tried 3.1.11 and it had a TON of ghosting.
Sadly. It breaks the rifle scope. 😔
@@lautaro3365 Use DLSS version 2.5.1. DF actually specifically recommended that version for the exact same reason on their Half Life RT video, and it's the same thing on REFramework
@@tyisafk I tried using it but still had some ghosting with the reticle. Any other stuff I could do or is this just the best it can be at the moment?
@TarnishedGaming85 If you mean the resolution is lower when using the scope, that happens anyways.
Great vid, thanks. And props for using Frank Klepacki's "Drill" as the theme (it's from Command & Conquer 95, if anyone's wondering). Absolute BANGER. The entire OST is.
I was overall fairly satisfied with the performance on my PC, although I went without ray tracing. Only notable issue was the village section in the rain and the hedge maze in the castle - both of those sections put a ton of stress on the fps, and I dipped below 60 in those two areas fairly consistently
Exact same here. Was playing Ray tracing and hit the rain section in the village and it tanked my pc then got consistent crashes. Just decided to go without Ray tracing for the rest of the game, a little disappointing but overall the game was absolutely amazing.
Glad to see I wasn't the only one with bad performance in that section. I'm playing on a 2022 Legion 5i with RTX 3060 140w and 12700H. I have every setting maxed out at 1440p except for textures at 3GB and RT off, 60 FPS cap. That's the only area in the game when the weather ramps up where I felt my system was struggling. Everything else was fine.
Did you leave SSR on or off?
@@jzea5605 I set the rain to low which pretty much fixed it for the most part. I've tested that area of the game on an RTX 2070 (non-super) and Intel A750. The Intel VERY MUCH struggled here even on the RE4 optimized driver. With the rain on high and regular use of a scope (The scope is very problematic on Intel GPUs for some reason), I was seeing mid-20 fps, and around the 40s on my RTX 2070. Most of the time the game runs great on both GPUs, maybe 5-10% better on Intel depending on scenario, but some of those areas just unnecessarily destroy performance.
Same. I would actually turn on fsr2 really quickly so I don't have input lag in those sections. It would get pretty sticky feeling when it would drop. The 1% lows I was seeing were close to 30s. Felt pretty rough.
Thanks Alex, totally agree with installing the DLSS mod, but I wish capcom would fully implement it instead as the menu and even the crosshair is glitchy
It's far more notable if using a Scoped or Laser Sight Attachment
Also the textures look a bit weird as internal resolution goes down, they look grainy, kinda like oversharpened. I fixed it by using DLSS Tweaks and setting a custom resolution ratio for DLSS. Now textures look better but I don't get the usual performance boost so yeah, native DLSS support is much needed in this game. Btw, you can fix scope by disabling motion blur.
@@winstonblue9422 It's because REFramework doesn't change the LOD Bias, you need to change it manually with Profile Inspector
I have also done that but did not fix textures looking grainy. Maybe I messed up something in the profile inspector I dunno. But thanks.
@@clipper9580 You were right. The thing is, The value needed was much lower than what was recommended in the reddit thread. I set a value of -3.0000 for a custom 0.72 DLSS ratio and now the game looks perfect. Huge thanks!
Even though im playing on a 4080 in 4k max settings with zero issues i love watching these vids! Super informative and concise as always
Always appreciate the Command & Conquer music that Alex puts in.
Thank you Alex! Good luck and Godspeed on TLOU pt 1.
I have a 3080 10GB so this video will be so helpful when I fire up Resi 4 on the weekend. I'll give that DLSS mod a try too. Incredible work Alex!
I've been using the DLSS mod on a 3080 10gb and the only time i'm not near 100fps+ is the village when it's raining and super refractory/shiny. 1000% recommend it. It looks better than native cause it's so much smoother looking. This is at 3840x1600 resolution as well.
@@softlock231 Don't forget you can use DLSSTweaks and force DLAA or set a custom resolution for better quality. I like DLSS at 80% render scale instead of 66.7%.
People were tripping out about vram but literally shows that even over vram limit it runs perfect as long as rt is off lol
@@softlock231 Is that on Quality/Balance/Performance/Ultra Performance settings for DLSS?
I have the same card , i can run the game perfect, everything high some max and at 6gb texture, is on red but zero crashes , looks amazing but ray tracing must be off , the minute i turned RT on even at lower settings it starts crashing very bad . But overall is a beautiful graphical game , a masterpiece
While I didn't suffer from crashes, I did notice my frames tanking to the low 20s during the village defense whenever I selected medium quality (0.5) textures on my laptop RTX3050ti, it's probably a VRAM issue so no much I can do there. Nevertheless I'm going to follow your optimized settings and see if maybe I can turn it up to medium again, so thanks!
Crashed once for me, but definitely had low 20s in the castle level. Scariest thing in that game honestly.
Dif hardware of course but for me on my 3080 turning off RT stopped all crashing. I can run with everything else maxed out. Got about 7 hours playtime with no crash. Then I tried running it with RT set to medium and it crashed in 10-15 mins.
@@sean8102The game gets a lot more demanding when ashyley is on screen in the village area. I lost around 40-50fps.
Saw the same thing with a 1660 6GB
I'm running a GTX 1070 and my frames dip to 54 in the village defense scene. My card has 8GB VRAM. I'm surprised your much newer card tanked that hard compared to mine, although im only running at 1080p.
Thanks for the video Alex, especially for C&C music at 4:33. Magical.
Cheers for the heads up on the DLSS mod, just installed it and it took less than 10 mins to figure that out and the LOD bias in Nvidia inspector. Now we just need a similar mod for Elden Ring.
The way you change weapons (clearly designed for dpads) and VR version being exclusive to PSVR2 as always are just essentially saying this game was not made with PC in mind at all.
A modern triple A PC release with issues? Surprising
Should be expected at this point. The 200 IQ move here is to wait a year or two for the sales and the patch fixes.
Or play the 2005 version with the HD Project fan patch wait for a sale after the game has been fixed if you still want it. There is no excuse at this point as all the numbered Resident Evil games have had PC releases from the beginning.
Just wish you'd incorporate Steam Deck optimized settings alongside standard PC settings.
Thank you for another wonderful deep dive and hopefully Capcom gets their act together.
Who the fuck would play on a steam deck? Dudes....steam deck is not cool and you're not "more mature" for buying a steam deck over an OLED Switch. You are better off buying a PS5 over a Steam Deck and the price difference is not huge. You steam deck kids are hilarious. Your little low-end hand held PC trying to run AAA graphics intense games where you end up sub 30fps with 40 minutes of battery life. If you want a real handheld, buy a Switch OLED. You'll get 5-7 hrs of battery life out of it (way more than you need) and the games look good enough and it's not as massive and bulky and the OLED screen is WAYYYYY SUPERIOR to the steam deck. Anything else, just buy a PS5 for 500 bucks and enjoy gaming in 4k with ray tracing. It's not that expensive. Steam Deck is a major disappointment. A lot of you got scammed into thinking you were going to basically have a super powerful Switch. Nope, you got a low/mid range handheld crappy PC screen that has to be tethered to an outlet to get any real playtime out of it because the battery doesn't match the wattage output of the system. Trashy product.

Dlss mod saved the day for me! He mentions the weird water reflection that happens with dlss, and all you have to do to get rid of it, is TURN OFF BLOOM.
With the dlss (on quality) mod I get better image, near maxed out settings (no rt, no reason for it), and medium or high shadows on a 3070 laptop. 4k.
I just want to leave a comment to thank you for this video and all other tech reviews you make Alex, we are truly blessed to have ya
you can do what Alex does if you invest an hour or couple of hours.
Good video Alex. I was expecting to see how the game performs on AMD GPUs too.
Wow starting a era for settings to not crash 😰
Well worth using interlacing at 4K for a 30% performance boost, barely notice any difference in image quality. Lower resolutions, not so much. And FSR is absolute trash here.
Hell yeah! Love these videos! Great work as always, Alex.
Another thing people aren't mentioning is stuff in the background / on other screens. If you are watching a stream/youtube video on your other monitor and have turned NVidias "Super Resolution" stuff on... Its hammering your GPU at the same time as the game is, and fighting for resources.
Gamers: "We don't know how texture settings work."
Capcom: "We don't either."
I would also recommend turning off Lens Distortion, specifically the Chromatic Abberation, as it only makes the game blurrier.
yeah he reccomended to turn that off in the demo review video but didnt mention it here so i was confused if his thoughts changed
Ah thanks for this. I've just been running the game maxed out with RT on with FSR 2.0 but had to turn textures down all the way to 1gb to stop crashes. The game still looks great like this but glad to know what settings I can dump. Also, the weird bright spots you noticed with the DLSS mod happen just the same with FSR 2. I've had tons of times where a big bright reflection spot will screw with my eyes and make me think I saw an item pick up prompt.
Going to be downloading that REframework when I get home. Would much rather have DLSS.
Great breakdown! It breaks my heart you that guys have to censor to this degree just to show gameplay. The policies of modern RUclips are genuinely insane.
I'm pretty glad to see you guys covering this. I've been dealing with a lot of crashes out of nowhere to the point where I decided to just wait for a patch because I wasn't a big fan of the required compromises. There are plenty of people in the forums having the same issue, but there are a lot of people blaming them for having bad drivers or something, when it seems like it's a software problem with the game.
I've been having an amazing time with this game. I've had no issues thus far on max everything. It's remarkably polished. It's great to see a game come out in a finished state. Thank you for the video!
The soft image while upscaling is due to the game engine not performing viewport jitter, which is necessary for high quality temporal upscaling. This is something that the mod specifically adds and even offers an adjustment for it. For what it's worth, God of War and Uncharted both have this same problem (other games as well, these are just some high profile examples.)
great content as always. Appreciate immensly the effort you put into these.
Unrelated note- how is a blood splatter not yt friendly, to the point you blurr it out, but the outro featuring half burned corpse on the cross is just dandy? xd
No comment on the CPU limited performance in many scenes?
Thanks for the great video, Alex. These are much appreciated!
Using Alex's settings going from max or close enough I went from 106fps at 4k in my current safe room up to 165fps. Then around 160-190fps in the grand hall of the cathedral. Next thing to check is looking into injecting DLSS cus that looks a lot nicer than Native here.
Never faced any issue with the game. i guess i am one of those who just enjoys game instead of just seeing fps counter all the time
I barely reach the recommended specs yet I average 60-70 fps with the highest settings (minus RT). The only issue is some texture popping, but still I'd say its a very good PC release.
RT and the hair settings suck in this game. I hope Capcom updates RT later on.
Great reporting, Alex. Disappointing news but valuable info
Thank you for reporting these texture issues. I noticed them when the demo was released but was wondering why not many complained about it.
Based on Capcom's track record (remember those stutters in RE8?), I doubt they'll fix it on priority.
It definitely seems like it would be unintended behaviour. Especially the thing where different display resolutions completely change the resolution of certain textures at different cache sizes, that's just weird. You wouldn't design that setting to work this way intentionally, not unless your goal was to confuse people lol.
Damn you're like a super senior QA engineer but for the video game industry. Well done my friend
On Chapter 5 where the game is at night time and with rain, there is a section (back in the village) where I cant get 60fps on my 2070s no matter what settings I use. Seems to be related to the rain since I never get any other performance drops like this later on the game.
Same here! 3080 too so even beefier than yours, still getting those drops in that section
That section tanks the console versions too. It's the only section that really does.
If you fire up a performance overlay you'll probably notice that your gpu is barely doing any work. I had 40-50% utilization during that section of the game.
@@Doi4in yes pretty much the same with my card, I've test the area with multiple settings and my GPU gets like 70% unless I use a scope, after that my frames just die to the mid 30s and 99% of GPU
@@TheRodss yep if i use a scope my performance is cut in half instantly. its jarring on a 3070 at 1440p
I was waiting ever since release for this, I have a RTX 3060 so I'm thankful you used something like the 2070Super for testing.
What bugs me the most is the input delay with VSYNC on. No matter if using the in-game option or Nvidias control panel. Without VSYNC I have unbearable tearing and with on my mouse input lag is so hard I can't aim as well as I should :/
Thankyou so much, been waiting on this to really sit down and get stuck in
I truly hope Capcom will add support for DLSS 2 (either 3.1.11 or 2.5.1) and fix the VRAM crash issue. Hopefully we will get some news from the devs themselves?
Capcom has heavy partnership with AMD, they have NEVER added DLSS to any of their resident games after more than 2 years )all their games use FSR) so our only way to use it is with framework (and trust me, it's absolutely worth it the game looks much better than native and higher fps than FSR itself lmao)
@@doomslayer8985 They should just break up the partnership then. You dont partner up with companies using inferior technologies such as FSR which is absolute garbage.
@@EldenLord. they never will, tbh FSR is garbage compared to DLSS just simply use mods to add DLSS and you are good to go
I don't know. I don't think i faced any issues on my RTX 4090 and OLED C2
The traversal stutter is present on ps5 as well and it's pretty annoying.
Whats that you say? A pc game with issues in 2023? Why this is unheard of!
You guys must read minds because I have been messing with settings for days and wished for a video just like this!
I hope df will never stop posting videos
It seems like every PC port has got issues these days :'D
Good video. Something to note, though, is that at 11:38, you mean to say, "... from max to high."
Another banger Alex, your analysis and critique are always on point
This is the funniest Optimized Settings video yet. Better image quality with a mod, reproducing Capcom's crashes for them, nonsensical texture behavior. What a ride!
Nvidia knew exactly what they're doing selling fast GPUs with low vram.
Great video and your experience aligns with my own.
I disabled Ray Tracing, as I always do, and had a phenomenal experience with the game. It was silky smooth all the way, everything set to 1440p/Ultra. Looked gorgeous and had consistently high framerates on 10900k and RTX 3080.
RT is such an overrated gimmick honestly. SSR algorithms got much better over the years that unless you stop your character and pan the camera around instead of playing the dam game you will hardly notice. The performance tradeoff is simply not worth it and as AB pointed out RT can in some instances like this game introduce other artifacts and IQ issues so the costs outweigh the benefits with RT. RT never immersed me more in a game than not having it turned on. I wish devs focused less on RT and more on actually optimizing the damm thing
I have a 9700k and 2070 Super playing it pretty much almost max settings (No RTX) and never had any issue whatsoever tbh. No crashes, maybe the odd FPS drop, but game runs like a dream for me to be honest
I've been completely shocked by how well it's been running on my 2080 super. The only time I get a frame drops seems to be around the merchant oddly enough.
That's quite interesting. The village at night in the rain did it for me.
Why on earth are you shocked that it runs well on a 2080 super? It bloody well should run well on a 2080 super! The absolute state of PC gaming 🤦🏼♂️
Wow it's interesting to see that 4k DLSS performance mode runs better than native 1440p with Taa & looks substantially better. That's a great find!
Alex doing an outstanding job redeeming DF with this absolute banger after a patchy few weeks
What happened?
@@dukenukeman not enough of this
As a console person. Almost all of these issues apply to PS5 too, including traversal stutter and oversharpening
I find native+TAA&FXAA usually the most pleasing to the eye in RE engine games
Likewise.
Dlaa shits on everything tbh.
The image is horrifically unstable otherwise is why, uniquely so with RE engine games. 7 doesn't just have aliasing if you disable the aa, the game straight up wobbles. I've never seen it before in other games. They use that TAA/FXAA combo by default because they need both to stabilize the image completely. It shouldn't be that way, but it is, and why I have no idea. RE Engine is an odd duck.
TAA and FXAA used individually or in combination make it look like you smeared Vaseline all over your screen. I much prefer a bit of aliasing to not being able to see anything because of the blur.
You didn't experience ghosting images with TAA turned on?
Game runs beautifully on my PC 👏 3600x + 3060Ti, 16GB Gskill Trident Z. It did not crash for me at all since I began playing it over 8 hours of play time. The only time it crashed was when I played with the FSR setting in the menu while in game. I put RT off after some testing as it didn't make too much of a visual difference as Alex found here. Again, this game looks absolutely amazing and is so realistic! I haven't even downloaded the DLSS mod yet! As an OG from the 2005 RE4 days, I am extremely pleased with the remake 🥰😍❤
I'd love to see what Alex would come up with for a 2060 6gb, it's been a really mixed experience so far.
I've had some really nasty level of detail issues with this game in the farm area directly after the village.
I might wait for the next patch...
No patch is gonna fix your issue. You simply have rather insufficient VRAM. And it’s been confirmed already that two sections of the game tank really hard (the main section of the village at night and raining) and I doubt it’ll get resolved but those sections thankfully aren’t long.
I also have a 2060 and I understand it's a dated GPU, but I feel like this game looks abnormally bad compared to how much resources it needs. I'm running it on nearly lowest settings to really get stable framerate and a lot of the textures literally look like something out of PS2. This PC runs Doom Eternal maxed out or Forza Horizon nearly maxed out or Death Stranding maxed out on 1080p and those games look miles better than RE4R. Regardless I'm loving the game, it's very enjoyable, but the performance is really terrible. I'll try these optimized settings, maybe that will help.
@@invisuu6280 well it’s no surprise a game at lowest settings looks bad… however I will say this game does run abnormally bad for it to not look much (if at all) better than RE8 or even DMCV.
@Bestgameplayer10 it must have been a bug as I reloaded it and it played fine. 😅
@@Bestgameplayer10 besides the night village area what's the other one?
Great video Alex, thanks for working hard to get this published so close after release. Keep up the great work!

Thank you for taking the time to put this guide together, I'll be downloading the game soon!
Has any of these issues been fixed?
not really 😞
@@mr_wildschwein 🤦
Honestly I played through it twice so far and I never had an issue. Cranked settings in 4K and played without a second thought
I'm just gonna play this game on PS5... Same with the last of us. PC gaming is in a crap state because of lazy developers
Thanks Alex. I didn't know the RE Engine tool existed.
So next thing I am gonna do is add it.
I worked out the Vram and RT stuff myself but had no idea the SSR was a waste of time either. Another great vid, thank you.
you can also disable the color correction, so it looks like the original
This goes to show how insane nvidias persistence to stick with 8gb is. Unless you want a 3060, the next card with good enough memory for it's power is a 3090!
I have a 2060 super and the fact that not a single reasonable upgrade path (amd asside) could run this game without hitting the same limit is insane.

@@speng5821 whats your point? The 8gb 3070 still outperforms it 9/10 times.
but he justed showed that 8gb is not a problem even if you go over vram limit in this game lol. Rt is the only thing thats fucks it because its bugged
@@matkorkes1304 you still have to lower settings. RT isn't bugged, the Vram counter is bugged to only be relative to RT on.
Why buy a powerful RT capable card if you have to turn down settings and turn off RT just because there's no memory?
I already have to turn down settings on my 2060 super, not to save performance, but to save vram. A 4070 has the exact same amount!
Chromatic aberration is an optical effect that has long been considered a flaw in lenses and cameras. However, in the world of video games, this effect can actually enhance the player's experience. When used correctly, chromatic aberration can make a game more immersive and visually striking.
Firstly, chromatic aberration creates a sense of depth perception by exaggerating the distance between objects. This can be particularly useful in first-person shooter games where accuracy and attention to detail are crucial. In these types of games, chromatic aberration can help the player differentiate between objects at varying distances and allow for better aim and strategy.
Additionally, chromatic aberration adds a level of realism to the game's graphics. This effect mirrors the way light travels in the real world, creating a more authentic and believable environment. For example, if a player is exploring an abandoned warehouse, chromatic aberration can create a dusty and grimey atmosphere that further immerses the player into the game's world.
Furthermore, chromatic aberration can be used to highlight important visual elements in a game. By distorting the colours of certain objects, players can more easily focus on what they need to, such as a key item in a puzzle game. This can also be used to simulate different lighting conditions, such as the way sunlight filters through the leaves of a tree, making for a more dynamic gameplay experience.
While it's true that chromatic aberration can be overused and become distracting, when used tastefully and in moderation, it has the potential to greatly enhance the player's experience. It can create a sense of realism, improve depth perception, and guide players' attention. As the gaming industry continues to evolve, we can expect to see more innovative uses of chromatic aberration in modern video games.
Wtf is with the AI generated response 🤨
@@HazzyDevil I wrote this myself
Watching the vid now, but I have to say I was blown away at the quality of this port. I've got ray-tracing on, everything maxed, and the game just looks and runs utterly stunning on my LG CX. This may end up being my favorite game of the year. It's really brought me back to when I was a college freshman holed up in my dorm playing the original game back in '05.
Agreed. Best pc port in a long time. Finally happy with how the performance should be on my 3080
There’s always that one guy that feels like he has the need to tell everyone how well a game runs for him despite evidence from everyone else. Cope on full tilt.
@@NotCharAznable Thanks for your opinion! It was super valuable!
@@NotCharAznable ??? This is the best running port in a minute dude 😂
@@NotCharAznable With everyone else, are you refering to the less than 3% of people that had actual errors on the game? Theres definitely problems and I will not deny that, but if you say a minority is the majority then thats not a good point. Want to see an actual bad port? Try The Last of Us Part I.
Want to see another bad port? Try Wild Hearts and Wo Long Fallen Dynasty
Want to see a slightly worse port? Try Hogwarts Legacy.
Literally the best port of the year, I would even say in the last two years.
Even Dead Space has port issues and it involves more than just graphics, it can brick your save file.
Why is there this many issues? I get that PC has a massive range of specifications but that doesn't excuse a company like Capcom to figure it out. We need to demand better.
Especially other ports this year, imagine how bad it is when this is in the better side on the spectrum. Then you get games like Wild Hearts or TLoU Part 1 PC ports which are terrible, arguably even worse than Batman Arkham port. Hogwarts Legacy and Dead Space also had crashing and performance issues.
“Looks incredibly awful” sounds like an opinion not a professional critique, the drama aspect of this channel is really starting to emerge and it worries me.
For the textures it's allocation based it changes the quality of textures based on how much vram you have left
Well, Hogwarts Legacy PC, that had issues to cover...
No one outside of the certifiably insane care. Stop whining. Been months, yah sack of waste.
Playing on a 7900xt and getting 100-120fps capped at 4k (fsr 2 quality) and normal RT. Looks great on my LG C1 65". No crashes or any other issues
weird how Hogwarts Legacy STILL doesn't have a video like this... :)
I can't imagine the smell that must come off the pustules still crying about the wizard game.
You know how some people get hot wings and snacks to enjoy the Super Bowl.... That is how I expect to enjoy Alex's TLOU video. This video was great! But I am really looking forward to the next one :D I would not be surprised if that video is 2 parts.
The biggest issue with the crash is that other RE engine games will run just fine if you go over the VRAM limit. Yes, you'll get hitches, but in a lot of cases, the hitches will only happen in very specific scene changes, and some users may be fine with these once in a while (going 1GB over in RE8 has very little performance impact in all but very few scenarios). For some reason, in RE4 it just crashes. :/
Yes. I could run re8 with 3070 on high settings with rt on, it was often maxing out vram. But I had neither major perf issues nor crashes. And this game has a better rt implementation then re4 remake.
Thank God you talked about the texture quality the fact that some stuff looked ultra blurry while the rest looked sharp was driving me crazy, you are the best.
I'm surprised he didn't mention the extreme ghosting caused by TAA on PC. It makes the two AA settings basically worthless, forcing you to use one of the subpar FSR options.
Thank you Alex for telling me my 2070 super is mid range. Too many reviewers ignore the 20 series.
