> No, they don't. I'm a gamer myself (infrequently these days to be fair). You can have excellent performance with maxed out settings on big ol' 4K displays... on last year's GPUs, which work fine with Nouveau. I don't have a horse in this race because I still do all my gaming on Windows (literally the only reason I still have a win10 license), but I think this is generally true. Up until last year I was playing current titles on a GTX-660Ti on high settings (not ultra) and was getting very reasonable performance. I now have a 1070 and a 4k monitor and it can play all the titles I own on ultra settings in 1440p @ 60 hz. It can't really push ultra in 4k @ that refresh rate, but I think people who need those settings are a pretty small minority at this point. It's important to remember that the market for desktop computer games has taken a back seat to the console market for a long time. Many, if not most, current AAA titles are developed for consoles first, and consoles are all running hardware that is a couple of years old at this point. Anyway, keep up the good work!
