Unfortunately performance especially on PC looks rough. I am/was pretty excited for the game, but looks like my CPU (3700X) might just not cut it for a good gameplay experience, despite being above the recommended specs.
It’s probably some glitch due to the performance settings for PS5/Xbox series X and then porting to PC. Chances are if modern CPU we try to limit the max core available to the game the performance would become better then letting it use full cores.
Plus, whatever anti-cheat/anti-modding stuff they put on the PC.
7700X is way above the recommended specs and my CPU though. It’s not surprising that it runs fine on a great system, but many of us have more mid-tier systems.
I know, it’s that they probably have the console optimization left in so any CPU that’s not 8 cores might get the short end of the stick. We will see how quickly capcom can patch that.

Glad to see an article go indepth on a videogame’s pc performance. Wish they would’ve used a 4090 for the 4K tests though.
And it’s interlaced, so not even the entire frame is rendered at once

the reviewer from Eurogamer has a 7700X(which has exactly 8 cores like PS5) had pretty good performance review, which kinda match what I guessed.
