At 1080p with medium settings, all of the tested graphics cards could deliver above a 60 FPS average. In terms of the Radeon (RADV) vs. NVIDIA Vulkan performance, the RX 580 was performing in line with the GTX 1060 while the RX Vega 64 was just frames ahead of the GTX 1070.

When running at 1080p with high quality settings, the RX 580 and GTX 1060 were now averaging just 60 frames per second for this rather demanding battle scene. So that would likely be roughly the cut-off playable experience for this Linux ported game with Vulkan. The higher-end graphics cards continued running with ease.

Lastly of the 1080p tests, when running at ultra quality settings the GTX 1070 and RX Vega 64 were running around the 60 FPS average. At least the NVIDIA and Radeon (RADV) performance is very tight at launch, which was quite exciting to see for how far the open-source Radeon Vulkan driver support has come, besides AMDVLK.
