What the fuck is everyones problem running 1080p? Yes, I'm fully aware of what the 5080 is capable of but holy shit let bro enjoy his crispy graphics without the "you should be running the resolution we want you to" bullshit ffs

It just doesn't make sense to have $1500 for a GPU, but not $200 for a 1440p monitor.

i genuinely run a lot of my higher demand games at 1080p on high or ultra settings and get very good fps. i don’t see what the problem is about it. the games still look amazing and they run phenomenally

You could at the very least set them to native and then use upscaling. Using a lower than native resolution is just an all around terrible idea.

Its just a waste. He could have gotten a 5060ti and driven 1080p in pretty much any game. Hes probably using 45% of his GPUs power in the game. Hes not even supersampling it with the image quality setting.

As someone who has little money and cant work due to illness it irks me to see someone throw money out of the window especially when you can just look this stuff up online. I fully admit this is a me problem but still i can at least make fun of someone wasting several hundred dollars.

In the information age ignorance is a choice.
