Last week, we saw a lot of games coming out on PC. Alongside Gotham Knights, we also got UNCHARTED: Legacy of Thieves Collection, Persona 5 Royal and the single-player campaign of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. As such, we’ve decided to capture and share some 8K videos from them.
In order to capture these videos, we used an Intel i9 9900K with 16GB of DDR4 at 3800Mhz and NVIDIA’s RTX 4090 Founders Edition. We also used Windows 10 64-bit, and the GeForce 522.25 driver. We also maxed out all the graphics settings of the aforementioned titles. Not only that, but we also used Ray Tracing, in native 8K, for Tower of Fantasy.
Now as you have seen, we’ve had numerous 8K articles in the past couple of weeks, and the reason behind this is quite simple. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX4090 is currently a beast, making it possible to game with 30fps at native 8K. Thus, and until we start getting current-gen only titles, we’ll be sharing such 8K videos.
The benefit of running a game at 8K is similar to that of using 4K with a 1440p monitor. By downsampling from a higher resolution (8K in this case), you can eliminate aliasing and get a crisper image. This is basically what SSAA used to do back in the old good days.
You can also find 8K videos for Gotham Knights, The Witcher 3, A Plague Tale: Requiem, as well as Red Dead Redemption 2, Cyberpunk 2077, and Fortnite.
Lastly, our PC Performance Analysis articles for the latest triple-A games have been slightly delayed. Shame on me, I know. However, I had a wisdom tooth removal and I need to take some time off.
But anyway, enjoy the videos and stay tuned for more!

I don’t understand why you wouldn’t use DLDSR instead. It give better visuals and better framerate than 8k. You would probably get over 60fps in a lot of these games.
“DLDSR being a downscaling technique, and DLSS being an upscaling technique”
DLDSR uses spare power if/when available to render at higher internal resolutions and downsample the image.
Cool, thanks!
Give it a rest with the 8k stuff, no one cares.
1st it was the nonsense UE5 clips articles and now the glorious 8K.
Exactly..Stop this crap!

LMAO..well fair enogh..go on buddy, keep em coming ??
Where glory?
I don’t know if it’s due to such a high resolution being pushed, but just lol at those textures taking forever to load in MW2, especially at the guided missile part.
It’s way too early to be talking about 8K imo. Only 2.5% of PC gamers have even adopted 4K and it’s been that way for years and years.
A 4K TV is good for Movies but for gaming you have to spend a fortune on GPUs. The vast majority won’t.
I agree but, remember when playing at FHD max settings was for a select few? Hehe.
8K is pure lolcow, gimmick territory. My eyesight probably isn’t even good enough to fully appreciate the difference between 4K and 1080p.
Glorius 8K on an 6 YO (Uncharted) game or a 10 (P5)?
The f*k? Also, show us your 8K screen Papopoulos.
And now you moderate what make DSO famous? Please….
Use f*ck instead to bypass the filter 😛
less than 1% of PC gamers have an 8k screen and a PC capable of running it at playable framerates. not even worth it at this point. maybe in a decade.
Bro whats up with this articles? Slow day in news or what? I noticed it in other sites too. Plus those idiotic ‘fan remakes”.
8K ??????? I have 4k and its fine, by now most games dont even have 4k textures lmfao, and they talk about 8k lol
