Far Cry New Dawn is an action-adventure first-person shooter developed by Ubisoft Montreal and published by Ubisoft. The game is a spin-off of the Far Cry series and a narrative sequel to Far Cry 5. It was released for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on February 15, 2019. (Wikipedia).

Engine: Dunia 2. We test using the Ultra preset, with the HD Textures pack, DX11 API.

Looking at Far Cry New Dawn, even at 1440p there is a clear system bottleneck going on, as all three of AMD's RDNA 2-based GPUs are delivering identical performance.

Stepping quickly up to 4K does paint a clearer picture, and it's a strong result for the 6900 XT. It averages 114FPS, just 1FPS behind the RTX 3090, so it's effectively tie. The AMD GPU is also 11% ahead of the RTX 3080 here.
