Since this games release it has been plagued and with performance issues, even more so if your an AMD  graphics card user. The game doesn't look bad but it's below what we have all been expecting. once again pc gamers are getting held back by consoles. One thing I noticed with watch dogs on my R9 290 was that it plays very well until you get into a car and start driving then frames plummet from 50+ fps to 30- fps. The game also uses at times a staggering amount of Vram. I have seen in excess of 3.5GB at a resolution of 1920x1080, taking full advantage of the R9 290's large 4GB frame buffer.I loose around 4-5fps while recording but overall it's a decent gaming experience. I hope you  Enjoy the video
