God of War - RTX 2060 / Ryzen 2600 - 1080p DLSS Custom Settings
Gameplay benchmark of God of War on an RTX 2060 and a Ryzen 2600, using RivaTuner Statistics Server to display info on the top of the screen.
Resolution is set to 1920x1080, but 1280x720 internally with DLSS on Quality mode. Graphics settings are set to a mix of High and Ultra. Nvidia Reflex is ON. The game runs exclusively on DirectX 11.
The settings chosen here are based on recommendations from Digital Foundry's analysis, with the exception of Texture Quality being set to Ultra. You can watch it here:

For the most part, the port is quite nice and runs smooth. With these settings, it's generally GPU limited, jumping between 80 to 100 FPS depending on the area. Certain areas like the Witch's Cave near the end show some CPU limiting, but it never gets anywhere close to dropping below 60 FPS, so you can lock it to that.
The most impactful setting is Shadows on Ultra, which dramatically alters the way some areas look at an equally dramatic cost to performance, both on the GPU and the CPU side. If you're struggling to hit 60 FPS on Ultra settings, try dropping it to High.
The DLSS implementation needs work, though. There's some smearing here and there, but in practice it's almost never noticably. One of the real problems is that there's a forced sharpening pass that is set way too high, giving the image a strange artificial look sometimes, particularly with tree branches (see the trees at 00:27 for an example). I really, really hope that this is addressed in a future patch, because it would improve the way it looks tremendously.
DLSS also doesn't seem to play very well with depth of field effects. At 07:58 there's an example, where you can see see the window in the back shimmering like crazy.
