[FPS Benchmarks] Gears 5 on AMD Radeon RX 6800M and RX 6600M – the RX 6800M is 30% faster on average
Gears 5 is the successor of Gears Of War 4 and the new game follows the story events after the end of the previous title. Gears 5 uses the same engine as Gears Of War 4 (Unreal Engine 4) but the visual quality is enhanced compared to the old title.
The good news is that the game isn’t too heavy and it’s not punishing the hardware like some other title like Metro Exodus. Gears 5 has a multiplayer mode and if you plan to play it regularly a high FPS isn’t a bad idea – in this case, the higher the better.
For this comparison, we have picked two fast AMD RDNA 2 GPUs – the AMD Radeon RX 6800M and RX 6600M.
Don’t forget to take a look at our Top 100 Best Laptops for Gears 5 list.
