Cronos The New Dawn: PC Performance | Min & Recommended & High End Builds
77How well can your PC run Cronos The New Dawn, the new horror adventure game by Bloober? In this video I'll test Cronos using a combination of min system requirements (which is an I5-8600K and a GTX 1080), a recommended GPU which is an RTX 3080.
Plus; we'll use more powerful hardware with an Intel I9-14900K and 32GB RAM mixed with an Nvidia RTX 5070 12GB and also show Cronos The New Dawn running on an AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D, 48GB and a GeForce RTX 5090.
With the GeForce GTX 1080, Low settings are recommended if you're targeting 1080P, ideally with either TSR or FSR 3.1 upscaling - with the quality setting depending on your preferences. Very Low is a signficiant boost in performance, well over 100 fps without upscaling, but I don't think (personally) it's worth the trade off.
An RTX 3080 meanwhile handles cronos well at 1440P, including with RT enabled if you're liberal with the use of DLSS. DLSS is also required with 4k outputs, even without RT. 1440P without RT you can drop DLSS to quality or balanced - depending on preferences.
The GeForce RTX 5070 has a little more ram than the 3080, which helps stuttering, and generally performs a little better across the board than the 3080 - especially with RT enabled.
The Nvidia RTX 5090 and the 9950X3D aren't immune to their reliance on DLSS, at least if you wish to leverage ray tracing. RT quality will typically stick over 60FPS, but there will be the occasional hitch - and personally I'd suggest sticking to balanced on DLSS and Frame Generation X2 - again, if you're using Ray Tracing.
Cronos The New Dawn does run into the odd stutter for loading when traversing areas; but 'shader stutter' doesn't appear too bad for my systems, though hitching does rear its head when RT is enabled for me - particularly for the RTX 3080, potentially this is a VRAM thing though.
As full disclosure - I was given Cronos The New Dawn for the purpose of testing and review by Bloober, but all opinions are my own.
