RTX Settings Guide?

[TaylorHu]

Hello all.

 

I've been an AMD fanboy for a while, but I recently got a 4k monitor and my old 6700XT is just not holding up. Probably going to pull the trigger on a 4080 Super when I can find one at MSRP.

 

Can anyone point me to a good guide on how to get the most out of it? I haven't really kept up on all the latest tech; DLSS, Ray Tracing, Frame Generation.... When to use what, what are typically the best visual quality to performance ratios, etc. What graphics settings you should tweak (I read somewhere that if you're Frame Generation you should frame rate cap at 1/2 your monitor's maximum refresh rate, for example?) to get the most bang for your buck. It seems like it can vary a lot by game, but some general guidelines would be helpful.

 

If it helps, I play almost exclusively single player titles. A lot of ARPGs and things. So I'm typically not as concerned with maximizing my frames and minimized my input lag and all that.

 

Thanks in advance!

There is no universal setup. 

 

I play at 4K with a 120Hz GSync display so I have a global 118fps framerate cap with GSync enabled. I have no interest in hundreds of FPS as I don't play hyper competitive titles where it seems people care about such things. 

 

DLSS, RT, FG are extremely game, display resolution and settings dependent. 

 

With a 4090 In some titles I use DLSS Quality and FG, in some I don't. Just going to have to experiment with what works for you in each title.
