The move to release benchmarks comes in the wake of Nvidia's presentation on Monday evening, where CEO Jen-Hsun Huang's presentation concentrated almost exclusively on the ray-tracing and deep-learning capabilities of the new range of GPUs, with only the most oblique references to standard 3D performance.

Despite only releasing in the final week of March, the game had no problem topping the paid games chart on the store. Sony does not reveal sales numbers for these games, but the numbers nonetheless reflect downloads, not revenue. The rest of the top ten looks relatively similar across both regions, with A Way Out being the other highlight during March. Mainstays like FIFA 18, and GTA 5 also made an … [Read more...] about Far Cry 5 tops PlayStation Store downloads in US, Europe
