PUBG GPU Benchmarking

Right now I’m in the process of testing 32 new and old GPUs in PUBG at 1080p, 1440p and 4K. For now the focus is just on the ‘ultra’ preset but I will follow up with very low quality testing as well.

I also plan to look at the visual quality difference between AMD and Nvidia.

What I want to know from you guys, are there any GPUs in particular that you would like to see included?

$2 per month is an entirely new tier that provides access to our private Discord server. We'll be in there chatting to you guys about stuff, asking questions about videos, gathering your questions, etc.

Our $3 per month tier has been upgrad...

How should I test CPUs?

How would you prefer to see CPU gaming performance compared?

Using multiple resolutions with a single quality preset or one resolution (1080p) using medium/high/ultra quality settings?
