Good afternoon, once again I have poor performance problem Watch Dogs Legion, I tell you the summary that game came out 2020, thinking that I could move with the Intel Arc A770 16GB Limited Edition , It turns out that if I put the ultra 2K graphics options I'm going from 47 to 57 FPS, and that Arc A770 graph should be on the same level as an RTX 4060, the Arc A770 should move 65 to 70 FPS with some peaks 73 and 75 FPS , Please I need this reports as soon as possible, Arc A770 should beat RTX 4060 between 2% and 3%, but of course your story is that I said it is optimizing popular games and apps, but please report

Intel Arc A770 16GB Limid Edition

Hello addelucas123,

 

Thank you for reaching out to the Intel Community Forum. I understand you are experiencing poor performance while playing Watch Dogs: Legion using the Intel Arc A770 16GB Limited Edition graphics card. To assist you further, I would like to gather more details about your setup and the issue:

  • Are the performance drops consistent, or do they occur randomly during gameplay?
  • Have you tried adjusting any in-game settings or enabling features like Resizable BAR?
  • Please share screenshots or a short video showing the FPS behavior during gameplay.
  • Could you please provide us the SSU logs of your system? You can find instructions on How to get the Intel® System Support Utility Logs on Windows*

We will wait for your response so we can continue assisting you.

 

Best regards,

Good morning, I've attached the SSU log files and videos. This game is well optimized. My Intel Arc A770 Limited Edition 16GB graphics card should be outperforming an RTX 4060 by 3%. Therefore, my graphics card should be able to run it without any problems at Ultra 2K quality without experiencing the performance drops. And I don't even want to talk about ray tracing because it's awful.

 

Remember that it's a 30-second video, but to give you an idea of ​​the performance I get

 

Are the performance drops consistent, or do they occur randomly during gameplay? It makes it constant

 

Have you tried adjusting any in-game settings or enabling features like Resizable BAR? Yes

 

Game graphics options: Quality Ultra Resolution 2K

 

So, that's all. I wish you a Merry Christmas Eve and a Merry Christmas, and may all your wishes come true.

Good morning, here's a summary. I'm going to send you videos that last 1 minute and 45 seconds, enough to see how the performance drops.

 

Are the performance drops consistent, or do they occur randomly during gameplay? It makes it constant and random

 

My Intel Arc A770 Limited Edition graphics card should at least reach 90 or 100 FPS at native 1440p ultra settings, surpassing the RTX 4060. Thanks to its 16GB of VRAM, it's perfectly capable. I'll share videos, a benchmark report, and screenshots. I hope that with all of this, I can report the issue, and I hope that 2026 will be better for everyone, because we still have a lot of games waiting to be reported.

Hello addelucas123,


After completing our investigation, we recommend performing the following steps to help resolve the issue:

  1. Update the BIOS to the latest version available for your motherboard. You may visit ROG STRIX Z590-F GAMING WIFI. You may also contact the motherboard manufacturer for assistance regarding the BIOS update.
  2. Perform a clean driver installation using Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) before reinstalling the latest graphics driver.

Please let us know if you need guidance on these steps or encounter any issues during the process.


Thank you for your cooperation.


Best regards,
