| THE GRAFICAL PART |
This subsection of our review highlights the main graphical aspects of this game. Particular attention is paid to the version of the graphics engine used, the version of the API used, graphic settings and the quality of development of the main visual aspects.
| SUPPORTED OS AND GRAPHICS API |
F1 22 supported Windows 10/11.
The priority and main graphics API for F1 22 is DX12.
| GAME ENGINE |
F1 22, like all the latest games from this studio, was developed on a modified EGO engine version 3.0. EGO is a game engine, a modified version of the Neon engine used in the game Colin McRae: DiRT, developed by Codemasters and Sony Computer Entertainment using Sony’s cross-platform PhyreEngine graphics engine. The engine is targeted at the PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 hardware and software platforms.
On July 6, 2009, Brian Marshall, Codemasters’ technical director, officially announced that the PC version of DiRT 2, which would use the “EGO” engine, would add support for DirectX 11. Thus, the “EGO” engine became the first engine for which support for DirectX 11 was implemented. At the moment, support for DirectX 12 is implemented.
| SETTINGS |
F1 22 has a fairly wide range of graphic settings.
Below we have provided screenshots of the game at various graphics settings, where our readers can see the difference between the minimum and maximum graphics quality settings.
| RT ON/OFF |
| TECHNOLOGIES |
The graphics in F1 22 are generally standard, as for the latest Codemasters games:
Well, then we will move directly to gaming tests and determine what impact this game has on modern computer hardware.

Our video cards were tested at different screen sizes of 1920×1080, 2560×1600 and 3840×2160 very high graphics quality settings.
| GPU TEST |
In the video card test, the default resolution is 1920×1080; other resolutions are added and removed manually. You can also remove and add any positions of video cards. You can also select any of our test processors from the list in the drop-down menu, comparing its performance with the given video card tests (by default, the most productive solution is selected). The test is carried out on the most powerful CPU in this game and is scaled to other processors, taking into account their testing on NVIDIA and AMD video cards.
- Very high
When resolved 1920×1080 an average FPS of 25 frames was shown by video cards of the Radeon RX 6600 or GeForce RTX 2060s level. Minimum FPS of at least 25 frames can be provided by video cards of the level Radeon RX 6600 or GeForce RTX 2060s. A comfortable average FPS of 60 frames can be provided by solutions Radeon RX 6600 XT or GeForce RTX 2060s.
When resolved 2560×1440 an average FPS of 25 frames was shown by video cards of the Radeon RX 6600 or GeForce RTX 2060s level. Minimum FPS of at least 25 frames can be provided by video cards of the level Radeon RX 6600 or GeForce RTX 2060s. A comfortable average FPS of 60 frames can be provided by solutions Radeon RX 6800 or GeForce RTX 3060 Ti.
When resolved 3840×2160 an average FPS of 25 frames was shown by video cards of the Radeon RX 6800 or GeForce RTX 2080 level. Minimum FPS of at least 25 frames can be provided by video cards of the level Radeon RX 6800 or GeForce RTX 3060 Ti.
| VIDEO MEMORY CONSUMPTION |
Testing of video memory consumed by the game was carried out by the program MSI Afterburner. The indicator was based on the results on video cards from AMD and NVIDIA with separate screen sizes 1920×1080, 2560×1440 and 3840×2160 with various anti-aliasing settings. By default, the graph displays the most current solutions. Other video cards are added and removed from the schedule at the request of the reader.

GameGPU
When resolved 1920×1080 video memory consumption of video cards from 8 gigabytes to 5 gigabytes, with 12 gigabytes 6 gigabyte, with 16 gigabytes 7 gigabyte.
When resolved 2560×1440 video memory consumption of video cards from 8 gigabytes to 7 gigabytes, with 12 gigabytes 7 gigabyte, with 16 gigabytes 8 gigabyte.
When resolved 3840×2160 video memory consumption of video cards from 8 gigabytes to 8 gigabytes, with 12 gigabytes 9 gigabyte, with 16 gigabytes 10 gigabyte.
| CPU TEST |
Testing was carried out at a resolution of 1920×1080. In the processor test, you can remove or add any processor positions. You can also select any tested video card from the list in the drop-down menu, comparing its performance with the given processor test results (by default, the most productive solution from NVIDIA is selected). Testing takes place on the most powerful NVIDIA and AMD video cards and scales to low-end models.
- Very high
When using video cards NVIDIA processors showed an acceptable indicator of at least 25 frames per second Ryzen 3 3100 or Core i 3 10100, and an FPS of at least 60 frames per second will be able to provide solutions at the level Ryzen 3 3100 or Core i 3 10100.
When using video cards AMD processors showed an acceptable indicator of at least 25 frames per second Ryzen 3 3100 or Core i 3 10100, and an FPS of at least 60 frames per second will be able to provide solutions at the level Ryzen 3 3100 or Core i 3 10100.

GameGPU
The game can load up to 16 streams. The game uses 12 threads as efficiently as possible.
| RAM TEST |
The test was carried out on the basic configuration of Core i 9 12900K with 32 GB DDR5 5400 MHz pre-installed memory. All used RAM was taken as an indicator. The RAM test on the entire system was carried out on various video cards without launching third-party applications (browsers, etc.). In the graphics, you can add and remove any resolutions and video cards as desired.
