Many do, especially at higher resolutions.


I don't think there is any reason a game _needs_ more. I don't think there is any gameplay experience that couldn't be enjoyably delivered on this hardware. And it's a massive disappointment that minimum requirements bloat has been out of control lately.

With how PC part prices have exploded after AI data center buying, I think we will see developers suddenly discover that you don't actually need half these specs to run games.


I doubt the rest of the system will be able to do these high resolution versions. It's basically a console, not a gamer PC.


Especially if you do stuff like "AI" upscaling, frame generation, and raytracing.


What many games need to do more is to better optimize. And I’m talking about graphics, not time to market.
