Elden Ring received an replace immediately (opens in new tab), and issues are getting downright illuminated in The Lands Between. The 1.09 patch brings a slate of bug fixes and makes all kinds of tweaks to Elden Ring’s weapons and fight, however the headline merchandise right here is that the sport is lastly getting ray tracing assist. There’s only one drawback: You most likely will not need to truly use it.
You may go swap ray tracing on in Elden Ring’s graphics menu, however what you will not discover there’s a toggle for Nvidia DLSS or AMD FSR assist, the miraculous body technology tech that permits you to preserve a playable framerate even with taxing graphical gewgaws turned on. Which means truly activating ray tracing has the potential to sluggish your sport to a slideshow, particularly at excessive resolutions.
That is most likely why FromSoft’s minimal and really useful specs for Elden Ring’s new ray tracing mode each recommend you play the sport at 1080p: Any greater and also you’d start to sacrifice too many frames.
To be honest, that is FromSoft’s suggestion for builds based mostly round Nvidia 30-series and AMD 6000-series GPUs. I think gamers utilizing bleeding edge 40- and 7000-series graphics playing cards may most likely get away with dialling their decision up a bit. However contemplating that hardly anybody is utilizing these playing cards but (opens in new tab), most of us are gonna need to settle a method or one other. Listed below are these minimal and really useful specs in full:
Minimal specs
- OS: WINDOWS 10
- CPU: Intel Core i5-10600K or AMD Ryzen 5 3600XT
- Reminiscence: 16 GB RAM
- GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti, 8 GB or AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT, 12 GB
- Beneficial graphics setting: 1080p – Low high quality – Low Ray Tracing
Beneficial specs
- OS: WINDOWS 11
- CPU: Intel Core i7-10700K or AMD Ryzen 7 3800XT
- Reminiscence: 16 GB RAM
- GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti, 8 GB or AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT, 16 GB
- Beneficial graphics setting: 1080p – Prime quality – Excessive Ray Tracing
So, I assume be ready to sacrifice both your decision or your scrumptious traced rays, at the least for now. With a bit of luck, a future replace will chuck in DLSS and FSR assist and we are able to actually head off to the races.
Other than the ray tracing stuff, the patch additionally brings a bunch of stability adjustments and fixes, which I will listing under in full. To present you a fast style, although, I will let you know that—pleasure of joys—FromSoft has made nice axes much more highly effective than they have been earlier than, and the neighborhood is fairly stoked (opens in new tab).
