I generally try to play with everything maxed unless it's a setting that I know is going to tank my FPS. Recently played Kingdom Come Deliverance, which isn't the best game for pc, but even with medium to high settings I couldn't get a stable 60. Ideally I'd like for this to hit a stable 60 in AAA titles and higher FPS in other titles, I doubt 144Hz is going to happen with any card for a maxed out AAA title. If I were to upgrade, I'd want to play the newer titles maxed out, +- the FPS killing settings, at 60+ fps.
