FIFA nineteen is the latest part in EA Sports' FIFA series. Powered by the Frostbite three Engine, this latest soccer game promises to look and perform incredibly well on the PC. The game has just been released so information technology's time to criterion it and see how it performs on the PC platform.

For this PC Performance Analysis, nosotros used an Intel i7 4930K (overclocked at 4.2Ghz) with 8GB RAM, AMD's Radeon RX580 and RX Vega 64, NVIDIA'due south GTX980Ti and GTX690, Windows x 64-bit and the latest version of the GeForce (411.lxx) and Catalyst drivers (18.9.1 and eighteen.9.3). NVIDIA has not included whatsoever SLI profile for this game, meaning that our GTX690 performed similarly to a unmarried GTX680.

EA Sports has added very few graphics settings to tweak. In fact, at that place is simply one setting called Rendering Quality that tin can be set up to Low, Medium, Loftier and Ultra and that's information technology. The game also supports MSAA, and comes with support for both DX11 and DX12. Naturally, and especially afterward the wealth amount of graphics settings that were available in Pro Evolution Soccer 2019, we were expecting more.

In gild to discover out how the game performs on a variety of CPUs, we imitation a dual-cadre and a quad-cadre CPU. And we are happy to report that FIFA 19 can run with 60fps fifty-fifty on our simulated dual-core system without Hyper Threading enabled. Nosotros did experience some audio stutters on that system though, however those issues were resolved as soon as nosotros enabled HT. Needless to say that our hexa-cadre and our simulated quad-core systems had also no trouble running this new soccer game.

Surprisingly enough, FIFA 19 does not also crave a high-end GPU in order to be enjoyed every bit even our AMD Radeon RX580 was able to push more than 150fps at 1080p on Ultra settings and with MSAA4X. Do note that the minimum value is from the in-game cutting-scenes and non while playing the game. Also, the cut-scenes were running with an unlocked framerate on NVIDIA's hardware but, for some really strange reason, were locked at 60fps on AMD's GPUs. Likewise, and like well-nigh Frostbite-powered games, DX11 works improve than DX12 (DX12 suffers from additional stutters that are absent-minded in DX11, on both AMD's and NVIDIA's GPUs. Every bit such, nosotros strongly propose running the game in DX11).

Our NVIDIA GTX980Ti and our AMD Radeon RX Vega 64 were both able to run the game with more 60fps in 4K, though nosotros did detect some framerate drops during the cut-scenes. However, while playing the game, our framerates never dropped below 90fps on both of the GPUs.

What'south too really cool here is that FIFA nineteen looks absolutely stunning. Its player models are fantastic, its lighting arrangement is not bad, its stadiums are amazing, and it definitely looks visually ameliorate than its big rival, Pro Evolution Soccer 2019. Now while the game looks gorgeous, its animations – at least in my opinion – are not as good, fluid or realistic every bit those in Pes 2019. My estimate is that this is due to the game'due south more arcade-ish nature every bit Pro Evolution Soccer 2019 felt more realistic and sim-ish than FIFA nineteen.

Another thing that actually impressed me with FIFA nineteen was its keyboard and mouse support. Contrary to Human foot 2019 – which only shows gamepad icons – FIFA nineteen shows proper keyboard prompts/icons. Not but that, but the game tin exist played with the… mouse. This really reminded me of those FIFA 98 days and while players volition non be able to perform any avant-garde movements with the mouse, information technology's notwithstanding a great improver. As always, we strongly suggest using a gamepad for this game, nevertheless we really appreciate EA Sports' efforts to offer support for more than PC-centric controls.

All in all, FIFA 19 is ane of the most optimized sports games we've seen to date. The game runs incredibly well on a broad range of PC configurations and looks absolutely amazing. Our simply gripe is with its graphics settings (besides limited and they are not included in the game, meaning that y'all'll accept to quit it, open its configuration settings tool then re-launch it in example y'all want to make any adjustments). Other than that though, FIFA 19 is a top quality product on the PC.
