Hitman (2016)

Hitman (2016) (DirectX 12)


Hitman is a third-person stealth video game in which players take control of Agent 47, a genetically enhanced, superhuman assassin, travelling to international locations and eliminating contracted targets. As in other games in the Hitman series, players are given a large amount of room for creativity in approaching their assassinations.[5] For instance, players may utilize long-ranged rifles to snipe a target from a long distance, or they may decide to assassinate the target at close range by using blade weapons or garrote wire. Players can also use explosives, or disguise the assassination by creating a seemingly accidental death. –Wikipedia

Settings used for Hitman

 

Hitman running under DX12 is one of the better outcomes for the new Radeon RX 580, besting the overclocked GTX 1060 by 5% at 1080p and 2% at 1440p. Compared to the Strix RX 480, the MSI RX 580 is 5-6% faster depending on the resolution. Though all three cards have great results in terms of low frame time variance, I did notice consistent but infrequent hitches with the AMD hardware, both RX 480 and RX 580, at a few repeatable locations.

This table presents the above data in a more basic way, focusing only on the average FPS, so keep that in mind.
