Dirt Rally

Homepage: dirtgame.com | Publisher: Codemasters | Developer: Codemasters

Looking for a racing game that's action packed, fun and exciting? Rallying is the genre that best ticks those boxes and Codemasters' Dirt Rally is a prime example. Arguably the British developer's best title in years, it uses the in-house Ego 3.0 engine to deliver high quality visuals and silky smooth gameplay.

RX 480 starts off producing decent enough frame rates but is beaten by the GTX 970 OC and Radeon R9 390. The newest Radeon begins to claw back some of that advantage as the resolution is raised. We'd say it's capable of fluid gameplay at a 2,560x1,440 resolution. 4K, at our settings, is a no-go area.
