Still, we don't expect drivers alone to make up the 23% deficit. AMD has not yet released Spider-Man Game Ready drivers, so we tested with the most recent 22.7.1 version. Part of that could be drivers, as we tested with Nvidia's Game Ready 516.94 drivers that just came out for this game launch. The RTX 3070 manages 148 fps at 1080p with maxed out settings and appears to be hitting some CPU limits, where the RX 6750 XT - a GPU that normally slightly outperforms the RTX 3070 according to our GPU benchmarks hierarchy - lands at just 114 fps. it's pretty clear that the Nvidia GPU performance is punching well above its normal weight class. However, Spider-Man seems to be an Nvidia promoted game, or at least it includes DLSS support alongside FSR 2.0, which may account for presumably better Nvidia performance. The RX 6800 XT normally competes favorably against the RTX 3080, while the RTX 3070 is more of a match for the RX 6700 XT. In general, Sony recommends more potent AMD GPUs for the top three settings. Dropping down to 1440p but enabling some ray tracing effects bumps the AMD GPU another level to the RX 6900 XT, and finally for the ultimate ray tracing experience, Sony recommends an RTX 3080 or RX 6950 XT - and 32GB of system memory with one of the fastest CPUs available. The RTX 3070 and RX 6800 XT are very much high-end GPUs. Do you really need a Haswell-era or better Intel CPU? Probably not, at least not for 30 fps, though I didn't try testing on anything other than my top-tier Intel Core i9-12900K.įor the very high preset, running at 4K and 60 fps, there's a big jump in recommended GPU hardware. Here Sony actually specifies AMD hardware, though as is often the case it points toward more recent releases. The recommended specs aren't too bad either, suggesting a GTX 1060 6GB or RX 580, with a 4-core CPU should get the job done and provide 1080p at 60 fps with medium settings. There's no mention of integrated graphics, but we'll see about testing that soon enough. Just about any dedicated graphics card made in the past eight years should suffice, so long as it's an Nvidia GTX (not GT) or AMD RX model. The CPU requirements are also easy enough, with a Core i3-4160 or better.

All you need is a GeForce GTX 950 'or AMD equivalent' for 720p at 30 fps. The minimum spec should be in reach of just about anybody.
