Just recently bought/built a new pc. 4070ti i9-13900K and the first thing i did was setting max freamerate in all apps to max 60 end every game i start the first thing i do is setting everything to minimum. Playing mostly games like factorio or whatever. The only important thing for me is: never ever any dips below 60fps and almost room temp hardware if possible.
Imagine not using your PC as a space heater for your office
I realized this while playing Overwatch: having settings on Ultra is worthless when you're whipping the mouse back and forth during a 6v6. I could really use 144 fps over Ultra detail on a Japanese temple.
As someone with the same GPU, which games drop below 60 on a 4070Ti without excessive ray tracing..?
basically all pre 30xx cards tend to drop a few frames if some visuals happen to close to the camera, with fog, trees wit high shadow details and when dumping cache and so on. most people don't even realize these droped frames. For my spoiled me this makes many games borderline unplayable. I can't stay thouse little hickups. its just so ermersion breaking. and for games that tend to do that with our gpu. Luckily i have not found one yet.
Lol, while i would play at 20 fps if my display support it. A discussion in a forum lead me to the conclusion that fps sensitivity (corner of the eye) is mostly trained; people who do lots of image editing/CAD/stuff where you follow object with your eye on screen.
