Why does hitman perform so much better in dx12 on amd cards?

[Irenicus]

Are they just using a lot more concurrent compute + graphics workloads?

Are they NOT using some other rendering feature that nvidia cards handle better? What is it that makes it so much stronger than other titles like rise of tomb raider?


Is it about the game engine used and how advanced it is?


Are more dx12 titles going to perform like hitman or tomb raider?

Pretty sure there is high CPU usage in the game, each character has their own AI that has to be processed, so using DX12 allows them to use more threads and different threads to handle GPU calls, thus removing CPU bottlenecks.

Hopefully more like Hitman since RotTR is broken. Performance regression for DX12.
