The id Tech 7 one of the fastest PC engines. An RTX 3060 (12GB) runs Ultra Nightmare settings well above 60FPS at 1440p, and DLSS lets it push toward high-refresh 120+. Ray-traced reflections are available and the 3060's 12GB handles them - though for max frame rate in a twitch shooter, leave RT off.

Notes
id Tech 7 is the best-optimized AAA engine on PC. RTX 3060 12GB runs Ultra Nightmare well past 60FPS at 1440p; enable DLSS Quality to push toward 120+ for high-refresh. Ray-traced reflections are supported (the 3060's 12GB is enough) but cost frames - in a fast shooter, leave RT OFF for maximum smoothness. The engine has no traversal stutter. Cap to your monitor's refresh and enjoy near-flawless frame pacing.
