Bungie's multiplayer FPS, Marathon, is currently in an early Server Slam until March 2, with a full release on March 6. The game is designed to be accessible on mid-range PCs and does not require high-end GPU power. Initial settings for optimal performance include Vsync on, frame rate cap off, field of view at 90°, and high graphics quality. Players can expect an average frame rate of 84fps with 60fps for 1% lows. The game is not compatible with the Steam Deck due to BattleEye anti-cheat technology but runs smoothly on other Windows-based handheld devices. While an SSD is not required, it is recommended for better load times. Performance monitoring can be done via a built-in FPS counter or overlays from Nvidia and AMD.

Naoki Hamaguchi, director of the Final Fantasy VII Remake trilogy, announced that the PC will be the “lead platform” for future installments of the Final Fantasy series. The development team is now creating visual assets targeting high-end environments on PC first, then reducing them for less powerful platforms. This strategy aims to enhance graphics quality on PC, as seen in the PC version of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth. The shift is influenced by the growing international PC gaming market, despite PC gaming in Japan expanding gradually. However, PC releases have historically lagged behind console launches, with significant delays noted for previous titles.

Battlefield 6 has emerged as a notable title in the first-person shooter genre, prioritizing performance over graphics quality. The developers have focused on optimizing the game for accessibility, recommending a 3060Ti for optimal performance rather than setting it as a minimum requirement. Technical director Christian Buhl emphasized the commitment to performance, stating that the game was designed to run smoothly without relying on upscaling technologies like DLSS. Players have reported a seamless gaming experience during the beta phase, highlighting the game's ability to perform well on a range of hardware.

Weeks after the leak of AMD FSR 4 source code, the gaming community has tested its capabilities on older RDNA 2 and 3 graphics cards, finding that using this upscaling technology on models like the AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT significantly enhances image quality with only a minor performance dip. AMD has not officially released FSR 4 support for older graphics cards, limiting it to RDNA 4 GPUs such as the AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT. Modders have successfully implemented FSR 4 on older GPUs, such as the RX 7900 XTX and RX 6800 XT, by replacing FP8 instructions with Int8 and using the OptiScaler tool. Users reported a slight decrease in frame rates while experiencing improved graphics quality. However, challenges remain, including specific issues like ghosting effects on RDNA 2 GPUs. AMD has not announced official support for FSR 4 on older GPUs, but upcoming FSR Redstone technology may allow broader compatibility across various GPUs.

Deep Silver unveiled its latest third-person action-adventure title, Echoes of the End, powered by Unreal Engine 5. The game was benchmarked on a setup with an AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D and 32GB of DDR5 RAM, testing various graphics cards including NVIDIA's RTX 4090 and RTX 5090. Echoes of the End lacks a built-in benchmark tool, leading to performance tests in demanding areas of the game. The RTX 5090 achieved framerates exceeding 60FPS at Native 4K in less demanding regions. At 1080p/Ultra Settings, only the RTX 4090 and RTX 5090 maintained framerates above 60FPS. At 1440p/Ultra, the RTX 5090 consistently delivered above 60FPS, while no GPU sustained 60FPS during Native 4K/Ultra stress tests. Performance scaling with graphics settings showed a 24-33% boost when switching to High Settings and an 8-13% increase with Medium Settings. Lowering to Low Settings did not yield significant benefits. Myrkur Games has addressed previous stuttering issues, with minor traversal stutters remaining. The game supports NVIDIA DLSS 4 and AMD FSR 3.1 for enhanced performance.
