F1 2019 is a racing video game based on the 2019 Formula One and Formula 2 Championships. The game is developed and published by Codemasters and is the twelfth title in the Formula One series developed by the studio. The game was announced by Codemasters on 28 March 2019. (Wikipedia).

We test using the Ultra High preset, with TAA and 16x Anisotropic Filtering, DX12 API.

F1 2019 sees the Gaming X sit right in the middle of the other 5600 XTs. At 1080p, the Gaming X is 5% faster than the Pulse with the old BIOS, but it is also 5% slower than the Pulse when using its updated BIOS.

At 1440p, the Gaming X is still 5% ahead of the Pulse using 12Gbps memory, but now the MSI card is 4% slower when compared to the Pulse using the new BIOS. It's also 4% faster than RTX 2060 at this resolution.
