    I’ve yet to encounter a game my 2080s couldn’t run at 144hz max graphics… Why are we still pumping out $800-1200 gpus when there’s nothing requiring that amount of power?

      Must be nice hitting that 2010s backlog. I still got all many unplayed steam games. And don’t even get started with all the free epic games.

      My simulators, Pimax, and three 4k 144hz monitors beg to differ.

        It’s 144hz, not fps. For all we know he could be at like 30fps and it still counts.

      Yeah bit you’ve never played Alan Wake 2 with turbo mode ray tracing in 28000p /s

      Recently upgraded both CPU and GPU for better VR performance. Before this my 3070 was struggling a bit with cyberpunk on the 4k TV. There’s also productivity and AI stuff people deal with these days.

      There’s plenty of needs that require more and more power.
