THE GRAFICAL PART |
In this subsection of our review, the main graphical aspects of this game are revealed. Particular attention is paid to the version of the graphics engine used, the version of the API used, graphics settings and the quality of the development of the main visual aspects.
SUPPORTED OC AND GRAPHICS API |
F1 22 is supported by Windows 10/11.
The priority and primary 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 modified from the Neon engine used in the Colin McRae: DiRT game developed by Codemasters and Sony Computer Entertainment using Sony's PhyreEngine cross-platform graphics engine. The engine is focused on PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 hardware and software platforms.
On July 6, 2009, Brian Marshall, CTO of Codemasters, officially announced that the PC version of DiRT 2, which will use the "EGO" engine, will add support for DirectX 11. Thus, the "EGO" engine became the first engine for which DirectX 11 support was implemented. DirectX 12 support is currently 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.

TECHNOLOGIES |
The graphics in F1 22 are generally standard, as for the latest Codemasters games:
Well, then we will go directly to the gaming tests and determine what impact this game has on modern computer hardware.

MSI Afterburner |
Our video cards were tested at 1920x1080, 2560x1600 and 3840x2160 resolutions at very high graphics quality settings.
GPU TEST |
In the test of video cards, the default resolution is 1920x1080, 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 productive CPU in this game and is scaled to other processors, taking into account their testing on NVIDIA and AMD video cards.
At a resolution of 1920x1080, an average FPS of 25 frames was shown by video cards of the Radeon RX 6600 or GeForce RTX 2060s level. A 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 Radeon RX 6600 XT or GeForce RTX 2060s solutions .
At a resolution of 2560x1440, an average FPS of 25 frames was shown by video cards of the Radeon RX 6600 or GeForce RTX 2060s level. A 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 Radeon RX 6800 or GeForce RTX 3060 Ti solutions .
At a resolution of 3840x2160 , an average FPS of 25 frames was shown by video cards of the Radeon RX 6800 or GeForce RTX 2080 level. A minimum FPS of at least 25 frames can be provided by video cards of the Radeon RX 6800 or GeForce RTX 3060 Ti level .
VIDEO MEMORY CONSUMPTION |
Testing of the video memory consumed by the game was carried out by the MSI Afterburner program. The results on video cards from AMD and NVIDIA at resolutions of 1920x1080, 2560x1440 and 3840x2160 with various anti-aliasing settings were taken as the indicator. By default, the graph displays the most up-to-date solutions. Other graphics cards are added and removed from the chart at the reader's request.
GameGPU
At a resolution of 1920x1080 , the consumption of video memory for video cards with 8 gigabytes is 5 gigabytes , with 12 gigabytes 6 gigabytes , with 16 gigabytes 7 gigabytes .
At a resolution of 2560x1440 , video memory consumption for video cards with 8 gigabytes is 7 gigabytes, with 12 gigabytes 7 gigabytes , with 16 gigabytes 8 gigabytes .
At a resolution of 3840x2160 , the consumption of video memory for video cards with 8 gigabytes is 8 gigabytes, with 12 gigabytes 9 gigabytes , with 16 gigabytes 10 gigabytes .
CPU TEST |
Testing was carried out at a resolution of 1920x1080. In the processor test, you can remove and add any positions of the processors. You can also select any tested video card from the list in the drop-down menu, comparing its performance with the results of processor tests (by default, the most productive solution from NVIDIA is selected). Testing takes place on the most productive NVIDIA and AMD video cards and scales up to lower models.
When using NVIDIA video cards, Ryzen 3 3100 or Core i 3 10100 processors showed an acceptable rate of at least 25 frames per second , and Ryzen 3 3100 or Core i 3 10100 solutions can provide an FPS rate of at least 60 frames per second .
When using AMD video cards, Ryzen 3 3100 or Core i 3 10100 processors showed an acceptable rate of at least 25 frames per second , and Ryzen 3 3100 or Core i 3 10100 solutions can provide an FPS rate of at least 60 frames per second .
GameGPU
The game can download up to 16 threads. The game uses 12 threads as efficiently as possible.
RAM TEST |
The test was conducted on the base configuration 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 running extraneous applications (browsers, etc.). In the graphics, you can add and remove any resolutions and video cards as desired.
