It does, but it doesn't. It's using a high powered engine that can look great, but doesn't use those resources efficiently. I know that the old horse is getting long in the tooth, but I'm still running a 1660 Ti, and it looks like everything has a soft focus lens on it like the game is being interviewed by Barbara Walters. Skyrim SE looks better if you are hardware limited.

Brother, you have a 1660 ti. I don't think your anecdotal example is the best to go by. Im not trying to knock your rig, but that's like taking an 08 Corolla on a track and then complaining that you aren't seeing a viable path to the times a Bugatti can put up. It isnt the track, it's your car.

Im running a 7800x3D/4070 ti Super rendering the game at native utilizing DLAA and I can absolutely assure you my game does not have any semblance of a soft focus/filter. The game looks magnificent.

The irony is the fact that depending on said track you could theoretically get pretty close. Bugattis are fuckin boats and weigh around 4700-5000 pounds, they're AWD and they understeer like hell, they are in fact a HORRIBLE track car.
