AMD RX 7800 XT Review

Control is an action-adventure game developed by Remedy Entertainment and published by 505 Games. The game was released in August 2019 for PlayStation 4, Windows, and Xbox One, and for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S in February 2021. (Wikipedia).

Engine: Northlight Engine. We test using the High Preset, High Ray Tracing Preset, DXR API. DLSS/FSR are disabled.

Starting our ray tracing benchmarks, we'll focus on 1080p here with some detail at 1440p as frame rates are most viable at these two resolutions.

In Control, with ray tracing set to High, the RX 7800 XT manages 72FPS at 1440p, making it 14% slower than the RTX 4070 but it's 8% ahead of the RX 6800 XT.

At 1440p frame rates drop to 44FPS on average so it's not super-smooth, but a 16% deficit compared to the RTX 4070 isn't too bad considering the 7800 XT is 16% cheaper based on current prices.
