That used to happen often during 5000 series, you get HAGS one update and it’s immediately removed in the next one.

7800X3D is around 40% faster but I guess you don’t really need it at that resolution.

I mean if you’re gonna include the games that run better on AMD in your range, might as well include the games that run better on Nvidia no? It’s more like 0-200% faster.

All that aside the 4090 is in it’s own league, no competitors what so ever. It’s bad value yes but water is also wet, and it’s price is currently inflated because of how it’s insanely good at AI. 7900XTX is also poor value compared to literally any other RDNA3 GPU and unlike the 4090, it isn’t a halo product, but it’s pretty good if you have max 1k to spend on GPU.

That’s not stealing but it’s odd how they got it wrong.

1440p 165hz with a 7600M 💀

My guess is the game is already extremely soft and blurry looking even at native which is a deliberate artistic choice, so the blurriness of lower input resolution doesn’t have as much of an impact.

RDR2 also has a deliberately very soft image that it achieves via the most insanely aggressive TAA i’ve ever seen, and it does make the game look really nice when it’s not smearing textures or leaving ghost trails behind moving objects.
