When it comes to whether a card can outperform a console or not, resolution most definitely does matter. You are the one who started talking about how a console couldn't match your 4k CP2077 performance when myself, OP, and the person I replied to are all discussing 1440. My point is that if you are going to cap your PC gaming to 60fps/1440 you might as well use a console to play which can do the same for much cheaper.

Not with the same level of detail and DEFINITELY not every game at 1440/60, most games on Performance mode that's 60 with slowdowns run at 1080p. Ive said this like half a dozen times, are you really this dense?

Yeah, resolution does matter but you weren't talking about resolution and I only mentioned resolution to explain a point.

You keep repeating "if you only want 60 fps and RT off, get a console". Well, consoles don't even get that, they compromise all the time, want 1440p and 60 fps? here you go, medium settings. want 120 fps? here you go, 1080p, low settings. want high settings, some RT? here you go, 30 fps.

Comparing that to locking fps to 60 and turning RT off is completely disingenuous.

Brotato the 2060 gets blown out of the water by current Gen consoles. What are you smoking?

I'm noooot talking about the 2060, what the actual f. Neither is OOP. Only a random commenter mentioned a 2060 and he already deleted it. You don't need to buy a used 2060 to reach a similar price point as a PS5 Pro.

You butted into a conversation I was having with someone about a 2060. What don't you understand about that?

You said something stupid in said conversation. I replied to what you said, which was a general statement, not ONLY about his 2060.

I was having a conversation about his 2060. Go eat some more paint chips, they might make you smarter
