A new video from MxBenchmarkPC demonstrates the performance gains in Unreal Engine 5.7 by comparing it side by side with Unreal Engine 5.4 using the recently released Venice tech demo by Scans Factory.

The test was conducted at 4K and 1440p with Nanite and hardware ray tracing with Lumen, using Ultra settings on an RTX 5,080 paired with an Intel Core i7-14700F.

“GPU performance is improved by up to 25% in UE5.7 (depending on a scene), and the 5.7 version is now better utilizing GPU resources, hence the GPU power draw is now higher,” commented MxBenchmarkPC. “UE5.7 offers a significant up to 35% CPU performance boost (depending on the scene) and more stable frametimes with less hitches across all scenes.”
