February 5, 20224 yr Yes, very nice. It would be interesting to see a comparison with autogen set to Medium..... Christopher Low AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D CPU / 64GB DDR5-6000 RAM / 12GB Nvidia RTX 4070 Super GPU / Gigabyte X870E Aorus Elite Wifi 7 / 1+2TB Samsung Evo Plus M2 Nvme UK2000 Beta Tester

GPU prices are silly, and here they are even sillier ($1300 for a 3060). On 2/4/2022 at 6:36 AM, Ray Proudfoot said: No, you can’t I’m afraid. You’d have to lower settings so much it wouldn’t be worth it. I've got news: GPU prices here went down enough for my liking. I got two days ago a 3060 Ti here in Argentina for $800. Will v5.3 be viable now with my new GPU? I burned already the refund option when I tried v5 back in November, and returned it after getting only CTDs.

Lots of improvements over v4. Here's a comparison of your card to mine. Remember I'm running at 4K so if you run at a lower res your performance will be much better. https://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Nvidia-GTX-1080-Ti-vs-Nvidia-RTX-3060-Ti/3918vs4090 Ray (Cheshire, England).

Now I'm more tempted, since I run a 1080p monitor.

That’s a quarter of the number of pixels of 4K. 2 million versus 8.3m. 👍 Ray (Cheshire, England).
