Currently trying to refund the new Indiana Jones game because it’s unplayable without raytracing cri. My card isn’t even old, it’s just 8GB of VRAM is the absolute minimum apparently so my mobile 3060 is now useless. I miss when I used to be able to play new games in 2014 on my shitty AMD card at 20fps, yeah it didn’t look great but developers still included a very low graphics option for people like me. Now you need to be upgrading every 2 years to keep up.

      “3K” doesn’t translate to any specific resolution, and it’s exclusively a thing in higher end laptops afaik. Anything from 2560x1600 to 2736 x 1824 to 2880x1620 to 3260x1834 or other totally random display resolutions are marketed under this label.

      Totally unusable terminology.
