Company of Heroes 3 PC Performance Review and Optimisation Guide

Is it playable at 8K?

I know, 8K is a cray high resolution, but when Nvidia's RTX 4090 can run this game at a near-200 FPS average framerate at 4K, we needed to see how well this game plays on a native 8K screen. 

Nvidia's RTX 4090 is able to achieve an impressive average framerate of 69.9 FPS, with AMD's RX 6800 XT sitting at 27.7 FPS. It's a shame that we don't have any graphics cards between these GPUs to benchmark right now, as we would love to see how an RX 7900 XTX or RTX 4080 would perform here. 

Looking at our benchmark results for Nvidia's RTX 3070 Ti, it is clear that Nvidia's RTX 3070 Ti does not have enough VRAM to run this game at 8K. This makes a low of sense, as Company of Heroes 3 can use more than 13GB of VRAM at 8K.

Graphically, it is crazy to see how much detail is on show in Company of Heroes at 8K, even when the game is zoomed out. You can see the details of infantry equipment, sharp reload animations and all of the vehicle details that gamers would usually need to zoom in to notice. That said, the hardware demands of 8K are as insane as they always have been, and high framerate 4K displays remain the best option for high-end PC gamers.
