Good article for those who always insist on gaming on ultra settings and complain that performance suck on your PC.

Have a great weekend guys!

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.

Nice to be able to get 120+ FPS at Ultra settings. Should make for some very smooth gameplay.

hmm, i usually just target at 144 fps, these high ultra is quite dumb.. nothing compared to playing fluidly.

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

for me if highest settings can > 30 FPS
I will always go highest settings.

unless I am playing online competitive gaming.

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