The Witcher 3: PS4 vs I3 4130/GTX 750ti

That console optimization

We recommend these settings in order to mirror console as closely as possible with the available presets.

• V-Sync: On
• Resolution: 1920x1080
• Nvidia Hairworks: Off
• Number of Background Characters: Low (console actually seems lower than this)
• Shadow Quality: Medium
• Terrain Quality: Medium
• Water Quality: High
• Grass Density: Medium
• Texture Quality: Ultra
• Foliage Visibility Range: Medium
• Detail Level: Medium
• Ambient Occlusion: SSAO
• All post effects on except vignetting.

That CPU/GPU combo is only like $270 as well. People shouldn't have a problem getting that PC under $500. That's pretty crazy. But the advantage of PC gaming isn't to run console games at console levels for the cheap imo. I like being able to crank everything up and watch the frames fly. And a 4130/750Ti can't do that.

Ultra vs PS4 and xbox one,i can't believe how close this game look on consoles to PC on Ultra you can barely tells the difference little better foliage,little better effects,hair some who appear to look better on consoles in instances,little better AA compare to the PS4 the xbo has the more jaggies,shadows appear to be darker on PS4.

750ti. Nvidia made one of a kind cheap card.

True. But it does show that you can buy a cheap pc and it does keep up.

I'd love to see a gtx 950ti for the same price has the 750ti.

750ti is an amazing budget video card. So far it is outclassing Console versions with roughly same graphical settings and in a lot of cases, even higher.

That video doesn't seem very trustworthy

Who cares...the PS4 is the worse version of the 3

I know you have both consoles, is that really the case?

DF said the following:

"When it comes to performance, and factoring in the game's superior 1920x1080 output, Sony's hardware is a preference - but it's not the clear choice we had expected."

Unless I'm missing something.

@SecretPolice: just because someone has both consoles does not mean someone has both games.

The ps4 has, according to digital foundry 1 or 2 times where it dips to 25fps. The x1 dips as well just to around 28fps.. the difference is the ps4 is locked at 1080p while the x1 is at 900p and goes to 1080 on title screen and ui.

I'll take the higher resolution over a few isolated frame drops. Some people are making it out like it's a major thing but in realty all versions are good. The game is great.

No

PS4 version was reviewed and garnered a perfect 10/10 score. Thank you SONY, maker of current gen 8 console leading PS4.

Why can't you believe it? The game was dumbed down.

Fortunately CDP are (confirmed) to be using dat' console money and hard at work to improve the PC version's gfx in subsequent patches.

That sounds positive and negative at the same time :/

ew nvidia and intel garbage go amd

PS4>X1 and the PS4 got the coveted perfect 10/10 AAAA review score. Amazing.

Lmao, and some idiot was saying yesterday a $1000 PC wasn't enough to beat console in multiplats.

In what way was it dumbed down?

are you kaz irl?

..but a picture saying "PS4" with a GREEN A BUTTON does?

The game looks great no matter what platform you choose, but obviously the PC is the way to go if you have the rig to support it.

It's from the same video, skip to ~7 minutes into that video. Not sure we should trust a comparison video that can't even use the correct footage for comparison

..my bad. I tend not to watch things when tormentos is the poster.

@Jankarcop: Nobody said a $1000 PC couldn't beat consoles in multiplats.

Stop trolling it looks quite

Stop trolling dude the video don't lie,and you can see some difference in all 3.

Does it matter.? They can put xbox one on the PC version as long as the 2 are different version who cares,the fact is 3 version were compare and all 3 look almost identical.

the almighty consoles. I find it especially funny my 3 year old 7850 is able to play the game at slightly better settings compared to consoles ( a mix of medium and high settings ) and still not having the performance issues of under 30fps consoles have

Must be all that magic console optimization

How am I trolling?

Why should I trust a comparison that can't get the versions correct in their comparison

That video is badly compressed.

Here is the true difference between PS4 vs PC.

Recent patches add better visuals to PC.

The difference is huge.

CPU bottleneck... A 1.6Ghz APU is a complete joke, its comparable to the slowest of CPU's in the CPU benchmark segments of graphics reviews. Its why most games have lots of frame dips below 30FPS when there is a lot going on, the CPU just can't keep up.

@Midnightshade29: X1 version is CONSISTENTLY 3-5 frames per second higher than the PS4 one.

Hehe, oh PC.

yes, this is a hardware budget, no software involved

we are comparing console/pc costs, if we're gonna put console software prices things gonna look very bad for console

Except if you buy the PS4 it comes with the OS to run things. If you buy a PS4 and TW3, you can play the game. If you just throw those parts together you can't play the Witcher 3

@leandrro: Still need a case and a CPU cooler.

there is a case with an included PSU (yuck)

and you don't need a third party cpu cooler

@leandrro: @lostrib: Sorry! My bad. I'm not gonna get picky with that list either. Works for me!

yes, but if i am like 95% of the planet earth i probably wont give bill gates money for that crap, and probably gonna pirate or use an old cd, i really dont know any people that buy overpriced windows licences

and also if i by a ps4 i cant play the 2 or 3 free AAA games that come with most graphics cards

as i said, software comparison is very bad for console

i3-4130 + 750ti is like 120Watts = runs on potato

@deadline-zero0: Where does it say the graphics settings?

@DrkeX: we don't discuss or promote piracy around here

@GoldenElementXL: Stock cooler is fine. Running TW3, my i5 4690k clocks in at 65-70.

We don't condone piracy here, for obvious reasons.

@DrkeX: where did I do anything like that?
