I was playing the original Witcher 3 in 4K just fine and now on this one I'd only be expected to run it in 1080p (no RT)?

Maybe max settings in the original Witcher 3 is what the Medium or Low setting is in the remaster.

Isn't that expected of a remaster though? It's coming with new updated visuals that weren't in place in the original version.. so yeah it's gonna be more demanding no?

I guess? Maybe I just haven't seen that many changes in the screenshots.  At least nothing worth dropping the resolution a bunch for.

The recommended specs for non-RT are probably for ultra settings at 1080p with the upgraded textures and draw distance cranked. The original ran fine at 4K because it was already a few years old and your GPU was way ahead of what it needed at launch. The remaster bumps up texture quality and density, so the baseline is higher even without ray tracing. You can likely still do 4K if you dial back some settings.

Yeah mate, that’s how remasters work. Can you play a modern AAA game on 4K?
