Benchmarks reveal Denuvo DRM has major impact on performance (video)

YouTube channel Overlord Gaming uploaded a new video that checks whether Denuvo has a major impact on performance. The test was performed by benchmarking six games that dropped Denuvo, tests were done before and after the application of the patch that disabled the Denuvo DRM.

This includes games like Bulletstorm: Full Clip Edition, Dishonored 2: Death of the Outsider, Deus Ex: Human Revolution, Motoracer 4, and Rime. All benchmarks were done with the same drivers and Overlord Gaming compared loading times, frame rates and frame times.

For the scores you can view the video clip below. The conclusion is that at least in these games, Denuvo DRM definitely has a massive impact on performance and load times.
