now that i bought a 7600 and its on its way, im realizing this is my first time actually experiencing raytracing

from what ive seen i know i dont give a shit about it, but i want to at least see what its about in person, and im realizing that like, i genuinely dont have much that can utilize that

cyberpunk? minecraft? uhhh

@nellePoint yeah I have a 6700XT that can theoretically do it just fine but like I tried Quake RTX and it was not worth the fact that a game from 1996 was running like shit on 2023 hardware
and now it's like, wow it can do this but what will I use it on? fucking rimworld?

@izzy yeah i feel like its a bit overkill for my usecases, like, i currently use a 1650 and

the only times that thing
really struggles is like, minecraft shaders? and some modern games that again, i rarely play.

so i feel like ive set myself up to not have to upgrade for a while

@nellePoint the only reason I bothered with a new GPU is that my old machine's PSU exploded and I couldn't test whether my RX 580 still worked. or any of the other parts. so I got the CPU that could run rimworld the bestest and the rest was basically "I guess I need a GPU" and "I guess NVMe drives are as cheap as SATA ones now"

@izzy my main reasonings are "my 1650 can be annoying sometimes, i want a gpu for my server, and im upgrading my pc in general so i might as well"
