While the game runs better than its PS4 and Xbox One cousins, it does not take advantage of more than two CPU cores. On the other hand, its GPU requirements are off the charts and if that wasn’t enough, Nvidia and Ubisoft are preparing a PhysX patch for it.

Not only that but the performance difference between a dualcore and a quadcore is around 5fps at best. Continue reading Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag – PC Performance Analysis→
