Styx: Shards of Darkness PC Performance Review

AMD VS Nvidia – Weak, Average, High and Epic settings tested

When comparing out RX 480 and GTX 1060 GPUs we can see that this game works much better on Nvidia hardware, with our GTX 1060 being able to play this game at 1440p 60+FPS at Epic settings while the RX 480 need to be played between Average and High settings for the same framerates.   

Right now this game has not received an optimised or “game ready” patch from AMD or Nvidia,  though it is worth nothing that this game does show a Nvidia banner when you open the game.  

In time this game’s performance may improve on AMD hardware, either with future patches and driver releases, though for now Styx the Goblin obviously prefers the Green Team.
