Am I the only one that doesn't really give a shit about ray tracing? For mediocre gains, you get a punch in the face on performance. I'll take 144Hz on a game over ray tracing any day.
IMHO it was a nice, but not worldbreaking gimmick, that was overhyped to sell. Like polygons count, like antialias, like monitor refresh rate... things that of course have their utility but over the years have been the target of marketing.
