Difference between the 2 launch options?

[Dude_in_the_Room]

Of course the 2 are: Launch Bright Memory: Infinite or Launch the game using DX12 and Ray Tracing PC for better performance.

I know enough about the hardware but these launch options confuse me.

I thought BM:I whole re-release thing was that it incorporated Ray Tracing and whatever else in the game. So I’m not sure what the second option is for.

Just wondering if it’s one of those overkill things where the answer is something like: “If you have a good PC it doesn’t matter. It’s just for mow end PC gamers.” or something.

For what it’s worth here’s my specs:

Ryzen 5950X
64GB Ram
GTX 3090 (last update was 2 or 3 updates ago basically since the 4000 series came out)
Win 10 (updated)
Firecuda M.2 Storage

Thanks in advance.
