Ashes of the Singularity Notebook and Desktop Benchmarks

DirectX 12 warfare. Ashes of the Singularity is a resource-intensive DirectX 12 strategy game with large-scale battle sequences, which jumps on the same bandwagon as Supreme Commander. What type of notebook and desktop hardware is necessary to allow stutter-free gameplay?

For the original German article, see here.

Ashes of the Singularity is an RTS game with massive battles and the option to zoom way out of the battlefield. At the time of writing, Metacritic awards the game with a Metascore of 70 (mixed or average reviews). The first mission in the Single Player Campaign is pretty solid, but not really outstanding. The graphics are very convincing, however. Especially when viewed from a distance, the maps and the battle units look pretty spectacular. 

Benchmark

For our test, we rely on the integrated GPU benchmark, which happens to be - when compared to the campaign itself - fairly demanding. Although we recorded 30 fps for the benchmark sequence, we were able to play the first campaign mission without major stutters at an average of 40 fps (determined during a spot-check). The performance is likely going to take a hit during extensive multi-player battles, so for those scenarios we recommend higher frame rates. Above 40 fps during the benchmark should be enough of a cushion, however.

We use the pre-defined settings from 1280 x 768 (not all notebooks can handle 1280 x 800) "Low" up to 3840 x 2160 (4K) "Crazy". For the benchmark tests we used the retail version of the game, since the beta-version still had quite a few issues on notebooks.

Results

Ashes of the Singularity is without a doubt one of the most hardware-intensive titles we've had on our test bench. The RTS title requires at least a dedicated GeForce GTX 950M or similarly fast graphics card to be playable. With the resolution increased to Full-HD, the GTX 950M lost 4.6 fps and dropped to 27.6 fps (-14%). In single-player mode, the game ran basically stutter-free, although it didn't look particularly great. The GeForce 940MX-equipped notebook produced an interesting result, as the integrated HD Graphics 530 (same system!) actually managed to outperform it. Since the GeForce 940M - which is based on the same chip and features similar clock speeds as the 940MX - didn't have any issues, the likely reason is the fact that we are using a pre-production sample. 

Medium details ("standard" setting) in Full-HD required a GTX 965M (refresh) respectively a Radeon R9 370 (desktop) for satisfying performance. The "high: setting didn't impact performance much during our test, so less demanding users can certainly select it if they so desire. For enough performance headroom, we suggest powerful GPUs like the desktop graphics card GeForce GTX 970 (and therefore also the GTX 980M). 

4k at maximum details requires top-of-the-line graphic cards like a Radeon R9 Fury or a Geforce GTX 980 Ti. 

Our overview below lists all of the notebooks and desktops we used to conduct our test. We continually maintain and expand this table. Please also take a look at our benchmark list of graphic cards (notebook and desktop).

Legend
5Stutters – This game is very likely to stutter and have poor frame rates. Based on all known benchmarks using the specified graphical settings, average frame rates are expected to fall below 25fps
May Stutter – This graphics card has not been explicitly tested on this game. Based on interpolated information from surrounding graphics cards of similar performance levels, stutters and poor frame rates are expected.
30Fluent – Based on all known benchmarks using the specified graphical settings, this game should run at or above 25fps
40Fluent – Based on all known benchmarks using the specified graphical settings, this game should run at or above 35fps
60Fluent – Based on all known benchmarks using the specified graphical settings, this game should run at or above 58fps
May Run Fluently – This graphics card has not been explicitly tested on this game. Based on interpolated information from surrounding graphics cards of similar performance levels, fluent frame rates are expected.
?Uncertain – This graphics card experienced unexpected performance issues during testing for this game. A slower card may be able to achieve better and more consistent frame rates than this particular GPU running the same benchmark scene.
Uncertain – This graphics card has not been explicitly tested on this game and no reliable interpolation can be made based on the performances of surrounding cards of the same class or family.
The value in the fields displays the average frame rate of all values in the database. Move your cursor over the value to see individual results.
