Sidestepping the chip shortage issue and assuming it will change before we have any further green/red team releases, and using current hardware only…
… is 4k, 144hz+ gaming possible?
It seems like 4k at anything close to 60fps is a challenge in all but the simplest games (dwarf fortress anyone?) and the current iteration of bignavi is focused on bringing 4k gaming into at least the 60fps field if not a little more,
So for someone like myself that prioritises refresh rate over resolution, it seems like if I built a 6800/6900 system then my only playable factors would be
a) 60hz 4k mode for games that don’t benefit from high refresh rate (eye candy games, low motion, flatter)
b) 144hz 1440p mode for games that are more action paced and accept the lower resolution
I’d love to have both but is that even a possibility and do I want to spend 3k+ building a system that could end up being seriously bottlenecked and I would have got the same job done with something half the price?
