These very high framerates are totally invisible to the human eye. So they are completely pointless.
220fps looks identical to 100fps.
So even if these cards can achieve this performance, it's of no practical value in the real world.

"Moving on to gaming, the GeForce RTX 4080 16 GB managed outputted an average of 128 frames per second in Shadow of the Tomb Raider at 4K with DLSS set to "Quality". The benchmark suggested that the game was GPU bound, suggesting that it might not be suitable for 4K gaming."
120+ fps and not suitable for 4k gaming...? What? You mean with DLSS off or what?
I think I'm from a time where non competitive games running at least at 60 fps is totally acceptable. Go figure...
