Half-Life Alyx with the NoVR mod that makes the game playable without a VR headset can run rather well on an RTX 4080 GPU, a new video shared today revealed.
The video, put together by MxBenchmarkPC, shows the game running at 8K resolution and locked 60 FPS with ultra settings on an RTX 4080 GPU. Sadly, there's some evident stuttering in some scenarios, so the end result isn't perfect, but the game undoubtedly looks incredible at such high resolution.
As mentioned above, the Half-Life Alyx NoVR mod allows you to play the latest entry in Valve's popular series without a VR headset. Developed by the GB_2 Development Team, the mod can be downloaded by going here.
