General purpose budget PC ideas for 2022

The Nvidia GeForce Experience is utter garbage now, used to be good when I got my GTX 960 and 970.

 

Either way AMD is gonna add their FSR tech into driver and Nvidia seems to do the same, there is absolutely 0 things Nvidia has currently that makes it worth paying the premiums except for the ray tracing being a Gen ahead. Realistically no game that I have played so far is playable with Ray tracing and even if it is you do not wanna have it on due to sacrifices required to get good frame rates. 

 

Oh and my friend who has a RTX 2080 Super absolutely tried to play Fortnite with raytracing using DLSS, results were poor and I doubt a 3080 will be a massive improvement.

 

 

I'm not talking GFE, I'm talking the featureset. DLSS is a lot better than FSR by a long shot, in my testing.

 

I have plenty of games that are playable with RT + DLSS. Cyberpunk 2077, Minecraft, The Medium, and I'm currently playing through Control before it leaves game pass.

 

you think the 2080 was bad with RT in fortnite, have you seen the 6900xt?

 

But I digress, none of your counterpoints still don't apply to the topic as a whole and instead you've opted to hyperfocus your counter arguments on to minor points that I have said, multiple times are ultimately up to the builder if they want to implement, and I find it rather ironic for a PS5/series X "killer" you list GPUs that are known for subpar RT performance on PC.

FSR vs DLSS doesn't matter both makes the image slightly to much worse to increase performance, they do the same thing as FSR gains more performance but lose more quality. 

 

Cyberpunk is fine but I rather have the smother framerate while playing, plus that is still being patched so it might get even better time will tell. Mine raft is kinda like saying "oh Quake RT works great" no offense but it kinda is, but it does actually make both of these examples look way better so I will say Minecraft and Quake is a fun games to try Ray-Tracing in. 

 

Well the 6900 XT SHOULD have been able to run Fortnite raytraced the issue is they on the PC version went with Nvidia tech and we got what we got on PC, I do think maybe it will be playable on the 4000 series and AMD 7000 series but I would not put to much hope into that. 

 

The GPUs listed are actually chosen by their RDNA2 counter part by TFLOPS, now in terms of pure power yes they are equal but since the consoles have a locked econsystem and all optimize only for AMD they run better. I would like to argue buying a RDNA2 card now that is at 6600 XT level or above probably will be usable for 5 years. Max settings? Hell no but playable.

With all due respect, as I believe I am speaking to a brick wall, I'll just leave this and mute the thread.
