Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is set in the year 2029, two years after the events of Human Revolution and the “Aug Incident”—an event in which mechanically augmented humans became uncontrollable and lethally violent. Unbeknownst to the public, the affected augmented received implanted technology designed to control them by the shadowy Illuminati, which is abused by a rogue member of the group to discredit augmentations completely. (Wikipedia).

We test using the Very High preset, with MSAA disabled. We use the DirectX 12 API.

 

Deus Ex: Mankind Divided has both the GTX 1660 Ti and GTX 1070 essentially on par with each other – across all three resolutions tested, the cards perform within 1FPS of each other. More interesting, I would argue, is how close that puts the 1660 Ti to the RTX 2060 – the gap at 1440p is just 6FPS, for instance, which isn't much at all.
