Ultra is for those with a high-end PC, including a GPU sufficient to crank out a consistent 60+ FPS at that setting. Not meant for the rest.

Yalor. Why bother paying $4k for fresh sinkie grad when FT can do the same for $2.5k. I also can't spot any difference in the output.

Ultra is for when you need to do content creation, High is for gaming smoothness

In BF1/ BFV and BF 2042 Beta, set everything to low at 1440p. Because FPS matters.
