The six core CPU and 16GB of RAM may hold back the extra power of the 3070 Ti. You've got a good enough system where your performance on desktop should be close to mine, I'd think. It looks better on my desktop PC, but not so much that I consider it worth messing around with all the settings and tweaking things endlessly.

Performance mode looks great and you get a basically locked 60. I also have played it on my PS5, and frankly it's just better. it doesn't make that much of a visual difference). Granted the 3060 Ti isn't the most capable card for RT, but the performance hit is far higher than it should be for the amount of ray tracing actually in play here (i.e.

With ray tracing turned on that drops immediately to 20 FPS, which is why I said don't bother with RT. With DLSS Quality, I'm getting 70-90 FPS. On my desktop, I'm running it at 3440x1440 (ultrawide) with mostly high and few ultras for things like textures and materials quality. Even dropping everything to low and reducing the render resolution still results in the same drops in the same places. I get random drops in places though, and there's just nothing that can be done. On the Steam Deck, I've got a mostly locked 30 FPS running native 800p with a mix of medium and high settings, but low view distance and low population). That said, I've played it both on my Steam Deck and my desktop PC (5900X, 32GB 3600MHz CL16 RAM, 3060 Ti). In short, it kind of just runs how it's going to run on your system, and there's not much you can really do about it one way or another. Ray tracing just absolutely tanks performance, so don't even bother unless you have a 4090. Intel XeSS and Nvidia NIS don't really make a noticeable difference and NIS looks really bad. The various upscaling options do mostly nothing or actually hurt performance. First, there's almost no difference between everything low and everything high performance wise, which is just bizarre. I'm not sure what they're doing, but it actually defies logic trying to dial it in. I have to admit, the PC optimization is still not great.
