What do gamers actually think about Ray-Tracing?

The graphics look about on par with everything else released over the past decade. Seems odd the requirements are so high.

Just chucking in RT for the hell of it, it kills performance but it doesn't automatically make it look better.

FG delivering 60fps@1080p running low settings using DLSS@quality with RTX ON, canny wait!

What a load of sponsored ********. They don’t even mention the 7900XTX that’ll run it just fine. The ray tracing section is laughable. I could still easily leave RT, it does nothing for me.

It's been known from the start, I had issues with 8GB vRAM already years ago in BL3. Since then things got just worse. I wouldn't touch anything below 12GB ram these days. Plus, AI use a lot of vRAM usually - and what is Nvidia pushing the hardest these days? If they add even more of it with 5k series, it'll only get worse

8GB stopped being enough in 2017, when Middle Earth Shadow of War exceeded it at 1080p ultra settings.
Anyone who bought an 8GB card after 2017 did it knowing it was basically a gamble and/or was willing to compromise on settings.

You can find 16GB ram on many $300 smartphones today, if you think a GPU is going to be fine with less then Jensen is going to make another fortune selling bridges along with GPUs.
 
Most gamers will have serious meltdowns as ue5.5+ games in coming years will default to hardware ray tracing for lumen on their weak 50 and 60 series cards.

FTFY. Most gamers on Steam use utterly crap hardware. The most popular card on Steam is the RTX4060, followed by the laptop and then desktop RTX4060. Then the mighty GTX1650. The next three spots are the RTX3060TI, RTX4060TI and laptop RTX3060. There are around 27x more of these cards on Steam compared to an RTX4090.

Half of discrete graphics cards are sold in laptops.

Most powered by a stock clocked six core or quad core CPU,which means most reviews are overestimating performance too.

I think enthusiasts on tech forums need to understand how crap the average gaming rig is now. Almost all of the people on here have better than average hardware or will upgrade quicker than most average gamers.

Despite what you think the people on here don't moan anywhere as much as all those gamers on games forums.

They'll upgrade.
