Engine: AnvilNext 2.0. We test using the Ultra High preset, DX12 API.

 

Getting things started with Assassin's Creed Valhalla, believe it or not this is actually the game where we saw the RX 6700 XT do its best versus the RTX 3070 and RTX 3060 Ti. At 1080p, for instance, its average of 93FPS is 11% ahead of the RTX 3070 and 18% faster than the RTX 3060 Ti.

Up at 1440p, the Nvidia GPUs do catch up though. Here, the 6700 XT averaged 73FPS, which is now just 4% faster than the RTX 3070 but still 16% faster than the RTX 3060 Ti. Compared to the RX 6800, it's 9% slower.
