Please note:
These figures are realistic performance estimates rather than
guaranteed benchmark results. Actual FPS can vary depending on the
processor, memory, drivers, game updates, background applications,
cooling, selected map and individual game settings. Ray tracing,
shaders, resolution scaling and frame generation can also
significantly change performance.
Integrated graphics estimates assume 16GB of dual channel 3200MHz memory. Systems using single channel memory or slower RAM may deliver substantially lower integrated graphics performance.
