Anyone who expects any gaming console to have all games at 60fps or more hasn't been paying attention to the last 30+ years of history.

In a fixed hardware environment, you need to sacrifice the low-hanging fruit in order to increase visual fidelity... And the first cuts are always frame-rates and resolution.

And that will never change.

For me I'm just changing my gaming preferences.  I have been gaming for 30+ years and checked out PC for the first time last year, when thr good people of VG helped me build a rig.  After experiencing 80+ fps....  I just struggle going back to 30 fps.  Ignorance is bliss I suppose.  I'm not convinced people realize how responsive high fps is.  I swear my skills in RE4, Dead Space are through the roof at high fps.  I'm finishing those games far easily than I ever did before.  Ssme with Halo and most other games as well.  I assume latency is way up and that directly impacts accuracy of cross hairs?  I'm beating a dead horse but fps is mind blowing to me with the tangible benefits.  I built a second rig for my wife/kids so we can play coop online.  The 4070 is getting them 60 to 80, instead of 30.  They all notice the difference as well.  

Edit

I guess the short version is fps isn't simply a visual improvement.  It is a massive gameplay benefit.

@bolded Still playing with gamepad, or using mouse+KB?
