GTRX 2060 on Shadow of the Tomb Raider DirectX 12 ON or OFF???

[Rey Christopher Torres]

Hi!

 

i just started fiddling with my rig just now. and i run Shadow of the Tomb Raider Benchmark

 

here's my current setup
i7 9700k at 5.0

Aorus z390 pro wifi

trident z 32g 3000mhz

Zotac GTX 2060

intel 660p 500g ssd

MSI MAG271cqr monitor.

 

i tried to run the benchmark at max settings. (literally), just to see if my system can handle it.

if i ran it with directX 12 on, ave FPS was 13

on DirectX12 OFF 60 fps.

 

anyone have any idea why?

 

or any tips? THANKS!!!

Because you were probably running DXR too, which is only available on DX12.

Turn off DXR/DLSS or whatever and retest. Generally from what I've seen DX12 runs better for most (though I haven't tried the game myself so I can't speak from personal experience).

With ray tracing On, that card will tanked. Which is expected. Even 2080 struggles 60fps.

If you want to run dx12, turn off dlss.

I’d keep DLSS on if you can though.
