Tried it. Performance was ok. Didn't seem that impressive until I turned off rtx. The difference is notable, but it's polish on top of 20 year old early 3D assets...
Water looks good though.
Had a quick bash at lunch, it ran better than I was expecting (around 40-45FPS with ray-tracing turned up to max at 1080p), but I wasn't that impressed really, I think part of the problem is that game developers have got so good at other lighting effects over the years, that proper ray-traced elements don't seem that much different, except they come at a massive computational cost.
As for the game itself, well, the less said about that the better, let's just leave it in the past.
So yeah, it held my attention for about 10 minutes.
