performance is not great in this port. Some of them even suspect that AMD graphics work poorly with the game. However, the situation is more complex.

Is FF7 Rebirth poor performance AMD fault?

With the confusion over FF7 Rebirth technical problems, no wonder that some people believe that it is a fault of one graphic cards or the other. Especially, AMD owners seem to believe that their hardware works worse than Nvidia counterparts. It is easy to draw such conclusions, when new drivers’ release notes state openly that the game may crash if played for a long time. However, let’s be honest – it seems that all players report issues, not only people with AMD hardware. Probably the next point of our discussion is the real cause of many unhappy players.

FF7 Rebirth requires RTX graphics cards

Yes, if you use Nvidia graphic cards and you don’t have RTX, you might have issues. However, it is not due to the mandatory raytracing feature. It seems that the problem is connected with the newest version of DX12, which is ed by RTX cards or RX 6600 and above. The game, without any mods or tweaks, requires it to function properly, otherwise be prepared for errors.

Of course, we can’t say that the above is the source of all problems. However, poor technical state of new games on PC (and even sometimes on consoles) should not be surprising for contemporary players. On the other hand, though, it is important to read requirements before you buy a game, to avoid stress later.
