What resolution? I'm just a tier below with a 3060Ti + 10600k and a tech review has me worried my 1440p monitor is gonna be a problem.

I don't want another situation like downtown in Fallout 4 on my last rig where I'm trying to play a FPS with framerate dips all over the place.

1080p, I’ve been too scared to upgrade to a 1440p monitor on the current rig ):

I had those downtown F4 dips too, even at 1080. This game is far from that, it feels much more polished.

I can’t even play F76 to this day without super annoying frame dips

Yeahhh, I found a great deal on this monitor but I was a dumbass and didn't know how bad the down-rez is when running 1080p on a 1440p monitor😅

Other than not being able to use raytracing in CP2077 it hasn't been a problem, but I'm think I'm going to start running into trouble from this point on. Oh well, I was thinking of getting another monitor for my workflow anyway...

Definitely get a decent 1440p monitor with high refresh rate and GSync and then you are set. If you get it used it probably won’t even be that expensive (that’s how I got mine around 2 years ago).

Monitors last a long time so it’s not something that you will just toss, and a 3070 with 1080p is such a waste imo
