Nvidia's upscaling technology has proven itself to be a handy tool for increasing frame rates with little impact on visual fidelity during our testing of the RTX feature. However, early testing in the game pre-launch suggests that Death Stranding will be able to offer 4K60 on every RTX graphics cards, even the RTX 2060.
Beyond bundles, existing Nvidia RTX owners are privy to a new Game Ready graphics driver. This includes support for F1 2020 and Death Stranding.
Furthermore, Nvidia's announcing three new G-Sync Compatible displays: the Dell S2721HGF, S2721DGF, and Lenovo G25-10. All three monitors should support variable refresh rates through Nvidia's drivers, if they didn't work already.
So between the hiking, new drivers, and monitor compatibility, hopefully there's something in Nvidia's latest news which appeals to you.
