Texture resolution has not considerably effected performance since the 90s.
If this were true there wouldn’t be low resolution textures at lower settings, high resolutions take up exponentially more space, memory, and time to compute. I’m definitely not going to be re-learning what I know about games from Edgelord here.

You’re being disingenuous mate. On a machine with adequate VRAM there is zero performance difference.
ohhhh so IT DOES affect performance at all 😱
Only if you run out of VRAM. If there’s sufficient VRAM the frame rate barely changes between Lowest and Highest texture quality.
