Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart PC Performance Review and Optimisation Guide

Solid 1440p performance

Without ray tracing, moving from 1080p to 1440p does not see a huge drop in performance for most graphics cards, with the exception being the GPUs on the lower end of the hardware spectrum. Overall, the game also appears to run better on AMD graphics cards.  

Again, GPUs with less than 12GB of VRAM struggle when playing Rift Apart with maxed out ray tracing, with lower percentile framerates taking a nosedive.
