For me it’s at least 4K 120fps…the latest release have a little bit of trouble getting there MAX out on a 4090 so I’m waiting for the 5090 like crazy!!! PC GAF what is your target?

Entirely depends on the game.

Black Myth Wukong runs at 70-90fps at 3440x1440 with DLSS Quality+Frame Generation

HZDR runs at 160fps at 3440x1440 with DLAA+Frame Generation

Cyberpunk 2077 runs at 80-100fps at 3440x1440 with path tracing and frame generation and DLSS Quality

It varies way too much for me to set a specific target. Generally, I want at least 60fps.
 
3080 - 1440p anything north of 60fps with DLSS.

I don't care if games are maxed out. I frequently turn shadows to medium and other settings if I don't see a noticeable visual hit. Going for max settings all the time is just expensive.

1440p. 60+ fps. I prefer to max out the graphics quality almost always.

Using RTX 4080.
I did have a 1440p monitor since 2018.

Went from a Radeon R9 270X 2gb w/ a 1080p60hz monitor, to 1440p 144hz in 2018. Using 1080 Ti.

Even the RTX 4080 cannot do 4K 100+ fps in a lot of games I play at quality settings I want, even with DLSS (which I rarely use), so for now 1440p it is

I target the native resolution of my monitor 1440p and the modern frame rate that my OS handles best 120 FPS.

Of course I can only do this in 10 plus year old games thanks to my hardware budget.

7900 XTX on 120 hz oled.
60 is an absolute minimum and if I can’t get 120 I’ll settle for around 90 avg FPS.

RTX 4070. (mid range PC but I'm a postin anyway)
4K/60 with max settings including RT DLSS quality/balanced. No frame gen.
RT Path tracing 1080P/60 DLSS quality/balanced. No frame gen.
Wukong had to use the dreaded frame generation or lower all the way to 1080P :(

I need to try out the FSR frame gen along with DLSS sometime. I hear it works well but I normally hate frame gen.

Depends on game 4K 80fps locked is nice to have on a single player game because I have a 240hz monitor. 160+ for competitive titles like CoD.

On games with Path tracing 70-80fps (with frame gen) because my 4070Ti can just about run it there lol.

Going to upgrade to 5080 in a few months to bring those numbers up.

I'm no longer "high end". Downgraded to a gaming laptop since I'll need it for traveling from time to time. 3070 ti mobile, but surprised with how well it performs. At home I have it connected to my LG TV at 4k. Definitely leaning hard on DLSS in just about every game but as long as I can get 60fps then I'm happy.

Whatever my 3090ti and 13900k CPU thingy can handle. 1440p with 60FPS works for me. I used to play around and do the stuff where you can boost the CPU and GPU on their apps. Gave up a few years ago as it got boring.

1080/60 all the way

I always have multiple monitors around, often times I'm recording/streaming and/or have multipe youtube videos running in the background at 1080p/60. Setting all these displays to 120 would negatively impact performance, without providing any real benefit sadly. Most games aren't even layed out for 120, much less all the other content you browse, so there's no point in going 120, as much as I'd love to. If I would dedicatedly only play a couple of games that support it (mainly talking about shooters) I'd definitely go 120 though, otherwise it's much more convenient to just stay at 60 for me.

Similiary, 4k isn't really worth it for me personally. Ignorance is bliss I guess. Metaphor Refantazio is a notable exception to that, because it looked like shit on 1080 for me, so I actually needed supersampling to fix that.

Baffles me that they launched the game with no AA.
