ASUS RTX 5080 TUF Gaming Graphics Card Review
A Plague Tale: Requiem

A Plague Tale: Requiem is a stealth-survival horror adventure that serves as a direct sequel to A Plague Tale: Innocence. Players continue the harrowing journey of Amicia and Hugo de Rune, two young siblings navigating a plague-ridden France in the 14th century. The game features stunning visuals, intense action sequences, and a gripping narrative that explores themes of family, resilience, and the darkness within.

So what about real-world performance? Starting with A Plague Tale: Requiem, the ASUS TUF Gaming OC shows a noticeable improvement over the Founders Edition at stock, delivering a healthy 9% uplift in the averages. The 1% lows also see a consistent improvement, with the same 9% increase in frame rate, and collectively, this puts the ASUS TUF Gaming OC only 5% behind the RTX 4090, a card that was and still is significantly more expensive. When overclocked, we manage to squeeze out another 2% performance, which now puts it 11% faster than the FE from NVIDIA, so some good stuff, but not almost 50% good, considering the price.
