This sounds more like how Portal RTX runs on AMD cards (my RX6800 is roughly in the range of a 2080Ti?). And that game wasn't meant to really run well on anything except the 40-series, while on the other hand I played through The Witcher 3 on the same RX6800 with RT on.Game is good, but runs like piss on nVIDIA cards, It is literally unplayable on my 2080ti unless I completely turn off all RT effects, and even then it is not smooth, with sub 20 fps lows. With RT it goes to 1-2FPS in some areas, while remaining playable in others. But I haven't tried it with the latest NV driver yet that came out yesterday.
I'm thinking this mess is more due to devs choosing not to optimize the game.
I'm surprised. I wonder if that performance issue is by design. Meaning Nvidia wants you to upgrade for the better gaming experience.
Nvidia may be a more revenue- and margin-focused entity than most are comfortable with, but this seems pretty counter-productive. There's a thin line between 'less than optimal performance' and 'virtually unplayable', though.
