Hogwarts Legacy PC Performance Analysis

Benchmarking GPUs in Hogwarts Legacy is useful, but can also be misleading because the CPU can easily be the limiting factor in performance, especially with ray tracing enabled and in certain locations in the game. Here I explain the issues and benchmark a wide variety of GPU at a variety of graphics settings and resolutions in the demanding (on the CPU) Hogsmeade location. The GPUs tested include RTX 4090, RTX 3060 Ti, RX 6700 XT, GTX 1060 6GB, and RX 7900 XTX.
