While I agree that Proton is awesome, running a game originally released for PS3/360 with enhanced visuals at 60 FPS (instead of 30ish) on a 1660 Ti is hardly anything to write home about.

Heh, my main machine still has 1660 Ti. I wouldn't say it's low end. It's better than 3050.

...my is gtx 750. Just. Every year, it becomes more disheartening to be on internet xD

Don't be. :)

If it works for you, it works. I use my GPUs until they die. Nothing wrong with being a patient gamer.

Do low-end laptops come with 1660Ti chips?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 days ago (1 children)

If a laptop has a dedicated GPU, it's not low end.

Depends a bit on the age I think. A 15 year old laptop is nowadays low end, no matter how high end it was when released. Maybe I am using the term low end incorrectly though, please let me know.
