I have a 1660 super, its a prebuilt.
Good that you can run it well, but some people cant just splurge on an overvalued and overpriced card so an unoptimized game may run reasonably well.
Okay but with a 1660 super even on Windows that game won't run too well. I know its above minimum reqs but that card is old. Even my 2080 TI is starting to show some age with framerates and what.
just because its not a sparkly shiny new card doesnt mean a miserable performance (for me) compared to the windows counterpart should be acceptable.
If id switch to windows right now i could still play c2077 in a perfectly playable state, if i where inclined to do so.
ITT: People getting mad for saying a 3 generations, 4 year old low end gpu is the issue
I mean, then it's not really linux, is it?
As for the card, I bought it before it became apparent how overpriced it was, and it was a major upgrade from my second hand 970 anyway. And I didn't splurge, I saved and bought what I thought made sense for me, when I could've 'splurged' on a 3080.
on windows it would still be very much perfectly playable, on linux? it was a slideshow
