      Digital Foundry made a video about it. Basically, you need a card that supports new rendering technologies that only started appearing on Nvidia cards after the GTX 10XX series (not sure for AMD). The game actually looks good on lower graphics. Putting everything on low won’t make it look like a PS2 game. The path tracing will absolutely demolish your performance, though, but that’s to be expected because it’s insane to expect real-time path tracing to do anything else with the current hardware (think of their path tracing as a tech demo more than an actual feature).

      Depends on if you want ray tracing, but running it is as low as a 2060 and even a 3060 is recommended without ray tracing for 1440 at medium, which is supposed to still look pretty good.

      I’m playing on my 2080 TI, it’s playable and enjoyable. Just doesn’t look as nice as it clearly has the potential to look.
