hey Ron this is steve from gamers nexus donna and today I'm showing you our benchmark course for elite dangerous a new space sim and spaceflight combat game to the tune of a slightly different version of star citizen so it is not quite what star citizen wants to be but elite dangerous is out now and it's got a smaller scope so in many ways this can be preferable for some players and certainly being available that was a big help so the game is out we benchmarked it

This benchmark course was created by Steve from Gamers Nexus, who ran the game on maximum settings and even tested different anti-aliasing options to see how they affected performance. He found that the difference between SMAA and four times MLA (MLPA) was minimal, with performance remaining relatively good overall.

The test results can be viewed in full on the article linked in the description below, which includes detailed benchmark charts for those interested in learning more about the game's performance capabilities. Additionally, a full GPU benchmark is available on screen at this time. Steve notes that while there are no major technological advancements in graphics, the game still looks good and offers cool visuals, particularly when it comes to planetary environments.

The game's space stations and ships are also well-detailed, with high-resolution textures adding to the overall visual experience. However, it's worth noting that the game is not as demanding on the GPU as some other recent titles, making it more accessible to a wider range of systems - even those on an ultra-tight budget.

In terms of performance, Steve notes that most modern GPUs should be able to handle the game at high settings without issue. However, those with very limited budgets may struggle to run the game at maximum quality. Overall, Elite Dangerous seems like a well-optimized game that is easy to play on a variety of systems.

Overall, Steve concludes by expressing his enthusiasm for the game and encouraging readers to check out the benchmark results in full. With its engaging gameplay and stunning visuals, it's no wonder that fans are eagerly looking forward to getting their hands on Elite Dangerous.
