Raytracing overblown? (lemm.ee)

Much as I love the look of Quake RTX, it feels like it’s a barely there performance hog in modern games. You look at the benchmarks on the newer cards and so much is focused on ray tracing performance but I just don’t see that big a difference in Cyberpunk on an 3080 Ti unless I look really hard for it.

Am I alone in this? I’d much rather have 100+ non generated FPS at 4k over what raytracing is delivering in major titles. And by 4k I really mean my super modded Skyrim VR :)

Sure, side by side pictures is obvious, but when running around playing the game? Nah.

The performance hit feels like going from 2k to 4k but that resolution jump is super obvious in comparison.

I won’t turn it down if they get it down to a negligible hit but that’s at least a decade away at the rate they’re going.
