Here we revisit Control, this time testing with the in-game ray tracing effects set to their highest values.

For our ray tracing benchmarks, we start with Control. There's not a whole lot to say here as the overall performance trends don't really change when turning RTX On – the 3070 is still pretty much neck and neck with the 2080 Ti, and at 1440p it out-performs the RTX 2070 by 63% with ray tracing enabled.
