As a VR enthusiast who has a fair amount of play time in VR, I do everything I can to squeeze just a single frame more out of any game I play. I overclock, I kill processes, tweak, code and anything else that can help keep a stable 90, or near to it. Im also a middle aged man with no dependents, and a full time career, so for me 1080 > 2080ti really is a given.
But as said in an above post - if I was just a desktop gamer… maybe not so much.
