I have seen similar reports of the GeForce driver having an overhead, affecting lower-power PC systems. older processor with lower core count, no HT) will come off the worst. The above indicates that, yes, Denuvo will soak up your CPU cycles, impacting game performance, and those who can less afford such a hit (e.g.
Moreover, with HT disabled, a difference of 30fps was observed.
In this case frame rate differences of an average of 17fps were observed. No other game optimizations are noted for the sans-anti-tamper version.ĭSOG noticed that the biggest changes in frame rates between game versions were when the lower settings were used. DLSS wasn't used as in the patch notes it has been noted that it has been improved between game versions with and without Denuvo tech.
Tests of SOTTR were run at both 1080p/Highest Settings (without Ray Tracing or DLSS), and 1080p/Lowest Settings and the built-in benchmark in the search for significance.

Many users complain about their CPU cycles being soaked up by the likes of Denuvo, though publishers typically deny any significant impact, so it is good to A/B such releases to find 'the truth'. The Dark Side of Gaming noticed the removal of Denuvo from SOTTR last week and at the weekend decided to test the performance difference between the Denuvo-protected version and the recently released version with the anti-tamper tech exorcized. As Bit-Tech has reported previously, Denuvo Anti-Tamper tech comes at a price, and while it might be attractive at game launch time, the tradeoff between game sales income and anti-tamper tech-rent must now be at a pivot point. With Shadow of the Tomb Raider (SOTTR) now somewhat long in the tooth, it seems to be the case that Square Enix and Crystal Dynamics are going to get out of bed with Denuvo.
