XCOM 2 PC Performance Review – AMD VS Nvidia

Graphical Comparisons – Minimum, Low, Medium, High and Maximum

In this set of screenshots moving from Minimum to low has very little visual difference, with the move from Low to Medium having a much greater visual impact, casting higher resolution shadows and adding shadows to the your squad.  

As you continue moving up the graphical settings the biggest visual difference is in the game’s shadows, though if you look closely at you can see an improvement in the games textures, especially in the pavement to the bottom left.  

In this set of screenshots we can see the differences in texture resolution at their best, showing a easily noticeable change in the soldier’s Armour and on the walls in the background.

One other thing to note is how little the alien in this show changes, even when moving form the lowest to the highest game settings.
