Honestly you just need to bite the bullet eventually, pretty much no game being put out in Current Year can actually max the GPUs also being put out in Current Year
Then there's Kenshi, a game released in 2013 that is to GPUs and SSDs what Dwarf Fortress is to CPUs.
There's also AAA games like Hunt Showdown with pisspoor optimization that can't get 60 FPS@4K with medium-high settings on hardware that came out 2 years after launch.
Not really; i have a 1060 and can run kenshi fine interestingly it is the cpu that i have to underclock; it runs prime stable for hours but somehow crashes in kenshi after 20 min. The gpu utilization is quite low and i get fin fps.
Weird, my graphics card is constantly at 90+% and there's still 10 second+ load times when characters are moving, over a minute if I'm loading into the swamp.
The loading times seem like a hardrive issue i used to have those a few years ago until my hardrive died and i got a solid state one. But it is wierd that you get such a high gpu usage. Are you playing in 2k maybe?
You'd think, but it's on a PCI 4 SSD, and the task manager rarely shows disk usage when the game starts chugging or loading in new areas after changing view.

Yeah the one thing a new card would be good for is streaming or game recording. I can play a lot of games at max, but when I have the OBS replay buffer on for my tiktok videos, it knocks off like 30-80FPS

4K
4k is a lot of pixels, i cant imagine you can run many games in there at 60fps even with a 3090.
