Doom Eternal runs well on my 2080 Super. I'm pushing ~250 FPS on Ultra Nightmare at 1080p.

How you playing it already? I have to wait another 8 hours to be able to play...

I'm pushing ~250 FPS

Now only if you had a faster monitor so you'd could actually benefit from these high fps..

I have a Southeast Asian Steam account, so technically I'm iN tHe FuTuRe!

That may be my next display upgrade. I'm just waiting for a 240 Hz IPS-version of the LG 27GK75B UltraGear. My current one (27GL650F-B, 144 Hz) does just fine for now.
