Anon turns on raytracing
(sh.itjust.works)
This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
I that's part of it.. The 9700K is like 7 years old at this point, and I'm all for holding off updates if it does what you want, but eventually you'll have to if you want to actually take advantage of that 4080
Well aware of that, but no game has ever had issues with it so far, so...
And I even run it without any OC, because it handles everything I throw at it juust fine.
Edit: plus, to be honest... if things keep going the way they're going, I can see a clear cut-off point for me around gaming... Very few new games I'd actually want to play, and I own every game I've ever enjoyed playing.
Edit 2: as an example, I can run Cyberpunk 2077 with everything cranked up to 11 and my system's actually chillin'.
I think you'd be surprised at how much headroom a fast cpu will give you in some games on that resolution and with that gpu. I've got a similar performing one (7900xtx) and I swear by my 7800x3d. Every game (apart from stalker 2) just feels so responsive. But it's no cheap upgrade thats for sure.
