It ran fine for me and others if you look through the results
Strangely @1080p it almost always performs worse..
My CPU is an old i74k (4th Gen), its probably the bottleneck. GPU is Gigabyte windforce rtx2080ti. I'm not going to upgrade the cpu anytime soon - not until the various meltdown / Spectre bugs have been sorted out and not until DDR5 is available. Also thinking of getting an AMD cpu, its been a while since I got an AMD cpu.
I started scrolling back, damn others already have a gigabyte rtx2080ti as well - but my 4K results are far better than my 1080p results...
Btw, why worry about the whole spectre/meltdown stuff? I turned all of the mitigations off. These flaws are completely meaningless to home users.
There is no 4K extreme setting - there is only 4K optimized and 8K optimized, but going by the textures it looks better quality than 1080p Extreme. I have this same issue in Battlefield v - @ 1080p it performs terribly, at 4k I can get near fixed 60fps on extreme quality, at 1080p extreme quality, my fps is around 30fps - I suspect its cpu related, really I want ryzen 3 (I just dont see the point of upgrading cpus right now)
So with some tweaking, mainly doing this:
I'm now getting:
If your wondering about desktop compositor and how to disable it for various desktops:

I suspected my cpu - I'm not even sure anymore. 4K is pushing 4x the pixels from 1080p, unless the 1080p is doing something like super sampling, which I don't think it is, its mem usage is less and the textures look better @4K.
Increased powerlimit, undervolt and a slight overclock... :)
2012 laptop +nvidia 1070
with a very dirty run, i have a ton of stuff open.
but its still within par...

Vega 56 undervolted and overclocked, with a ryzen 5 2600 undervolted :)
All of that watercooled
Edit : with a bit more work
