      How good does Doom run! It is incredibly well optimised. My steam deck was getting a solid 60fps on medium settings from memory.

        Maxed out, 60 fps. I like vsync when the card is good enough, so it’s locked there. Buttery smooth, I just suck and run out of ammo all the time lol

          Just asking why for the vsync? I got a new PC last fall and have only used freesync going forward. I wasn’t aware there was still a reason to vsync ever again if you had the option to do so.

            No idea, I don’t know what freesync is, I turned on vsync and it was super smooth, didn’t look past that.

            I don’t game a lot, just wanted to play a few newer titles.

              Ahhh, my bad. I figured you were talking about freesync (AMD) or g-sync (Nvidea) options, which allows you to get the benefit of vsync without using as many resources to power it. Your monitor and gpu have to support it before it can be enabled. I was like, how is this bad haha!?

                No you’re good. I never used the vsync before because I felt like it always made my movements too slow but now with a better graphics card and a better monitor it’s super smooth and accurate and I really like it

                I upgraded from a 1070 and a 1080p basic monitor. I now have dual 1440p asus IPS monitors and the 3070, so huge upgrade, about a decades worth of technology
