So... Horizon Forbidden West.
The steam forums have people complaining about performance. Like 20fps on a 4090.
I'm on a 2080ti. No idea what the fps is, it feels fine to me.

But this is another game that every 10min or so my gfx card resets both monitor outputs. The game screen goes black and I have to alt-tab out/in of the game to restore it.

Dragon's Dogma 1 does it every couple of minutes, so I wonder if DD2 will as well?

Only some games do it, most don't.

@kojack I've seen that happen quite a few times, generally the game making some sort of weird assumption (nobody will EVER have more than 8 gigs of vram!) or some automatic shader optimization screwing up when it sees a card with much higher caps than they tested it on. Cities Skylines 2 was doing much the same, 2080s and 1080s were running the game at around 30-40fps while 4090's were getting a solid 5.

Never underestimate just how badly tested the pc ports of these games are
