I can't believe Skyrim AE can run at locked60fps with ultra settings on my low end laptop, Linux and Wine/Proton is awesome (lemmy.ca)

While I agree that Proton is awesome, running a game originally released for PS3/360 with enhanced visuals at 60 FPS (instead of 30ish) on a 1660 Ti is hardly anything to write home about.

Do low-end laptops come with 1660Ti chips?

If a laptop has a dedicated GPU, it's not low end.

Depends a bit on the age I think. A 15 year old laptop is nowadays low end, no matter how high end it was when released. Maybe I am using the term low end incorrectly though, please let me know.
