RTX 2080 Ti did not reach 60FPS/1080p with Ray-Tracing ON in Watch Dogs Legion
So here's the thing, Ubisoft announced Watch Dogs Legion with a flashy demo/video to go along with it, RTX based with attracting and all whistles and bells enabled. As it turns out now, a GeForce RTX 2080 Ti cannot sustain an average 60 fps even at 1920x1080.
Of course, it has to be said that the test is based on an early build of course and possibly a driver or two will optimize performance further, but for a graphics card of that caliber and price level, that's a little distressful to observe. Digital Foundry published that the Ubisoft demo was running at 1920x1080 Ultra resolution with all Ray-Tracing effects turned on, the graphics card thus was that GeForce RTX 2080 Ti. At default, it had the FPS limited to 30, later on, they raised the limiter to 60 fps. It almost never reached it and had notable FPS drops.
Watch Dogs Legion is scheduled for October 29. We also need to mention that the final version will get DLSS 2.0 support, which will definitely bump up performance in higher resolutions. So yeah, nothing definite here, but certainly an interesting observation.

To be fair, and I have an RTX card, buying a 2060 for raytracing was never a good idea.
Many used that argument buying the RTX 2060S over 5700XT

2000 series was nothing but an alpha at launch and now a beta now, but its ready to go gold with the 3000 series launch with the rumoured 4x RT performance uplift.
2000 series was just Nvidia dick measuring and showing their big balls by tackling RT with hardware they knew full well wasn't ready and wasn't anywhere near capable of the effects and features it promised.

This, the only question in the future will be "can it run RT 1080p60?" with a trollface meme.

Some YT channels like DF have sponsored videos trying to justify even original 2060 6gb over 5700 lol, thats just silly. AMD said technology isnt ready but by then nvidia made some serious money on dumbasses.
