The multiplayer is UE4 with additional RT-Reflections. And it looks like a UE4 game...

Native 1080p with ray tracing on a 2060 Super actually sounds pretty good. I also find a lot of modern games 'low' does not mean it looks like shit. Devs have kind of abandoned the horrifically compromised visual options. At this point a 2060 is like six years old? This is usually what happens when the true "next-gen" games from a console generation start to hit. The min spec goes up. But playing on a 2060/S with DLSS Quality might actually be a pretty good experience (native 60 fps isn't bad either ... just not for me)

Ray tracing being mandatory has nothing to do with the performance tax you pay from using DirectX and Windows.
It might still run on a stock 2060, followed closely by a Hardware Unboxed article explaining it doesn't really run because neener neener they told you so
Linux have lower FPS in general, do you consider a linux-"tax" too?

If it's a vram limitation, dlss might put the 2060 under the bar. Will be interesting to see.
It actually doesn't in a lot of games. Sadly it seems like windows games can run faster under linux.
DXR is part of DirectX, so it kinda does.
or the 2060 super was the slowest card they had in the office at the time

Yah, that's actually a reasonable suggestion. Might not have tested with a 2060 regular, but it could be totally fine. I do know ray tracing titles tend to chew up vram more.

No it doesn't.

Can you explain what relevance Linux has with the performance cost of using Windows and DirectX versus a console API?
Hint: It has nothing to do with it.
The last benchmark I saw disagrees with that:
I would like to see your links, because I keep hearing the argumetn, but the data is always lacking?
Because it is not a Windows tax if Linux has the same issue (or worse)...
Yes, it does, because the tax is higher when requiring DXR.
Does the "tax" affect Vulkan games too?
On Linux too?
Surely.. to varying degrees.
If the baseline is console APIs.. then Linux and Windows with both have their "tax". But if we're comparing these recommended spec to other Windows PC games.. then the "tax" is requiring DXR.

Yes it is.

That's hardware tax, not software tax from it just being on Windows and DirectX12.
This is what, the second game that mandates hardware RT in a GPU?
