Third-person action-adventure title MindsEye had a disastrous launch after many day-one players complained of performance issues despite driving top-of-the-line equipment. One creator shared on X (formerly Twitter) that they have an average frames per second (fps) of just 55, despite running an RTX 5090 paired with an AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D and 64 GB of DDR5. The screenshot shows the game's 98% GPU usage and gobbles up 19 GB of VRAM. It comes after the game was universally panned on launch for its unfinished state, with players reporting wild glitches and strange NPC behavior.
One player running a more modest system—an RX 9070 XT GPU matched to a 9800X3D processor—tried the game set to the lowest possible quality. They were able to achieve a more respectable 84 fps, but they had atrocious 21 fps 1% lows and 16 fps 0.1% lows.
