PCI-related inquiry
PCI-related inquiry
bandwidth depends mainly on resolution and frame rate, not the specific game. So for 4K at 60fps regardless of title, the required data is consistent. PCIe 3 x16 can support that bandwidth.
PCIe refers to the interface connecting the card, not the monitor. It supports 16 lanes, offering high speed. The connection is extremely fast; otherwise, communication between the motherboard and GPU would become too slow. Why are you inquiring? Observe how a 4090 operates at PCIe 3.0 16x speed, unlike its native 4.0 16x connector.
I think the issue is actually the other way around—the performance drops more at lower resolutions compared to higher ones. The game plays a role, with some titles using more assets than others (possibly due to streaming). The graphics card's VRAM count matters too, along with its available bandwidth. Which card are you considering?
