No Man’s Sky PC Performance Retest

1080p Testing

When compared to No Man’s Sky’s day 1 performance the game has improved immensely, seeing performance improvements on all GPUs tested and getting rid of the game’s random slowdown elements.  

We did not compare the game’s performance at Ultra between the Launch day and patched game versions as the original version of the game did not have functioning SSAA making performance comparisons useless. 

Performance on AMD’s GPUs sees huge improvements, though AMD’s performance is still well below their Nvidia equivalents. Hello Games will need to continue improving the game’s performance on AMD GPUs, as while AMD usually has lower performance in OpenGL games an R9 Fury X should not be outperformed by a GTX 1060 to this degree.
