It’s more of the same in Far Cry 6. Here the RTX 3050 is just about slower than the 1660 Super, but there’s really not a lot in it. Looking at the PCIe 3.0 results however, the average frame rate is down 7% compared to PCIe 4.0, making it not much faster than the GTX 1650 Super if you have a PCIe Gen3 platform.
