I'd like an RTX video card. But, at current prices which are 2.5x to 3x compared to last year? Forget it. I like ray-tracing in my games. But, I don't like it enough to pay that much. If the "fake" renderings look close enough to the real thing? I'm happy.

Take Far Cry 5. No ray-tracing. But, Ubi did a good job faking it.
