What are you using to run it on a non-RTX card?

When this comes out for the GOG version of Q2, I'll be happy to buy it.
Tried Q2VKPT a few days ago, and my GTX1060 6GB capped out at around 13-15FPS any settings (even 720p with all Path Tracing effects either off or low).
Just tried an RTX version and it sits around 0-5FPS. I knew it was going to be bad on a non-RTX card, but I wasn't expecting "this bad".... :banghead:
You kinda had to expect that result. The RTX instructions allow for hardware accelerated RTRT on a very efficient level comparatively. This is why NVidia enabled RTRT features in their newest drivers for GTX GPU's, so people could see and understand the differences between software RTRT and hardware RTRT and why RTX is a big step forward.

As noted above, NVidia enabled RTX games to run on GTX cards through software in the latest driver releases.

And it so happens, I'm replaying the trilogy (achievement hunting).
It may be a sort-of apology to Steam users, but still I ain't buying BL3 on Epic.

Yes, I did expect a huge difference, but on the higher absolute scale. It's still a friggin' Quake II !!! There aren't even that many RTX effects to justify this performance. Even RTX2060 cannot keep it going at 60FPS. Friggin' 2080Ti only pushes sub-100... That's less than Metro Exodus at 1080p Ultra+RTX, or slightly higher than BF1 with RTX effects on medium.
I think I'll have more fun asking id Software and Intel for their old Quake Wars Raytraced demo and running it in software mode on my R5 1600x.

And it's a whole new part of the engine.

Um, yes, there are and they are intense. However...

Ah yes. Again, turn down or off Anti-Aliasing. Once you do the frame rates will go up. At 1080p and above it is not needed.

Even RTX2060 cannot keep it going at 60FPS.
My RTX 2060 with a OC above factory only started hitting 60FPS with the resolution dropped to 1080P. The best FPS I could achieve at 1440P was 33FPS it occasionally would jump to 34/35.

Again, turn down or off Anti-Aliasing. Once you do the frame rates will go up. At 1080p and above it is not needed.
Thanks for the tip.
