Can the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 run The Crew Motorfest with 60fps at Native 4K/Ultra Settings?

Ubisoft has launched the Closed Beta phase for The Crew Motorfest, and we’ve decided to give it a go. As such, we’ve captured ten minutes of gameplay at Native 4K/Ultra Settings on an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090. Can NVIDIA’s high-end GPU run The Crew Motorfest with 60fps at 4K/Ultra? Time to find out.

In order to capture the following gameplay footage, we used an AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D, 32GB of DDR5 at 6000Mhz, and NVIDIA’s Founders Edition RTX 4090. We also used Windows 10 64-bit and the GeForce 536.40 driver. Moreover, we’ve disabled the second CCD on our 7950X3D.

The closed beta build of The Crew Motorfest does not support any PC upscaling technique. In other words, there is no support for DLSS 2, FSR 2.0 or XeSS. The game does not also support any Ray Tracing effects, and is locked at 60fps.

Now the good news here, at least for the NVIDIA RTX 40 series owners, is that the closed beta build runs properly. The reason I’m saying this is because the Limited Test build had a major issue that crippled performance on these specific GPUs (that build was running with 3-5fps, no matter what the settings or your resolution).

As you can see in the following video, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 had no trouble running The Crew Motorfest with 60fps at Native 4K/Ultra Settings. Our GPU usage was between 50-60%, meaning that we could push the resolution even higher.

Lastly, you can find below the PC system requirements for this Closed Beta phase. I don’t know whether these PC specs will be similar to the final ones. Still, they can give you an idea of the PC that you’ll need in order to run it.
