Ultra settings gimmick ?

Fellow members of pcmr , is the difference b/w high and ultra really noticeable to you at all ?

Recently i got a chance to play at my friends pc (gtx 980 ti) , witcher 3 at ultra . While it gave a solid 60 fps ,only a few times difference was clearly visible .

So will you pay somewhat double the price for gpu just to play games at ultra ?

Eg :-
If you play at medium-high @1080P with gtx 970 , it will last for ~3 years(?) .

But if you want to play at ultra for 3 years i doubt 980ti would suffice .

If you could share links/screenshots showing any difference . I couldn't find much content on this topic :/ .

p.s.- my example may be wrong but i think you get the point .
pps - same was the case with batman :ao , mgs5 , far cry 3 ,

I mostly prefer to go at very high. Ultra setting reduces fps considerably with difference that barely matters.

Is the difference noticeable from medium to very high ? I can only tell the difference b/w low and other settings .

Maybe this is because i have less experience .
