Borderlands 4 PC Performance
Guys, I just tested BL4's PC performance.
I've got an RTX 5090 + 9800X3D + DDR5 48GB PC.
The game is nearly unplayable at native 4K resolution.
At native resolution, there's extremely severe aliasing, and the visuals are full of graininess. (It doesn't show in screenshots, but in dynamic gameplay, the aliasing is everywhere.)
Frame rates hover around 45-50 FPS.
You absolutely must enable DLSS, at least on the Quality setting, to get 70 FPS and better anti-aliasing. Otherwise, the low frame rates and aliasing will make you dizzy.

And BADASS is practically useless.
You're better off just choosing the low graphics settings but a high resolution.

Your low screenshot has obvious texture filtering issues straight from the nintendo switch
Don't you see the texture getting blurry at oblique angles? that's because its not using 16x anisotropic filtering

I have the same build as you, except I have more/better RAM. If you're playing at 4K with the expectation of running at native, you're either new to 4K gaming or you're an idiot. You NEED to run DLSS at the bare minimum for a playable framerate (modern AAA titles). Regardless, the performance is unacceptable and the game looks like shit. It literally looks like every borderlands ever, which is to say, AWFUL. I don't know how they managed this, it is truly impressive.

Same thing with CDPR, they abandoned their own RED engine for UE5 because all the people who knew how to use RED left the company and the new hires only know Unreal Engine

Retarded nigger. 4k is 4 times the resolution of 1080p. What makes you think you're going to be able to play at native resolution when an RTX 5090 is just double the performance of an RTX 5060 or equivalent?

BL1-2 ran on Unreal Engine too, so it's probably just a case of the entire family of games using it, allowing for easier porting of assets and so.

and BL1-2 had its fair share of issues, like when you loaded any scene and it kept loading textures from blurry to sharp for a few more seconds afterwards.
and all the PhysX garbage in BL2 which destroyed the FPS.

I thought about buying a RX9060XT or RTX5060Ti paired with a 7600X3D to upgrade my system from 2017 with a Ryzen 1600 and GTX 1070.

But right now I only have the CPU, GPU market looks very bleak, especially if you consider that near future games are all based on Unreal Engine 5.

Fucking 400 bucks cannot give you smooth performance with max detail at FHD.
