My i5-4690k is definitely showing its age. Especially since I have a Titan X Pascal that gets bottlenecked hard. The cpu in my 4 year old non-gaming laptop is more powerful
My gt730 envies your 1070.
my 1070 has 2 out of 3 fans on the blink but still gets the job done
A i5-6500 is still powerful on everything but windows.
i5-10400 w/RX6600 here. I’m getting older and older but I still feel young
My 1060-3gb is hanging on by a thread lol.
My RX580 is about to be seven years old, and I still haven’t encountered any game that is 1) too intense for it and 2) actually worth playing, considering usually only AAA games are resource-intensive and 99% of them are MTX trash
The only game that I’d considered playing that my build couldn’t run was Starfield. Seems like that worked out for the best.
I upgraded my PC for that, so yeah just be glad you weren’t that stupid. Oh well, at least baldurs gate looks shiny now.
I upgraded for freaking Hogwarts Legacy…
But hey, it prodded me to pick RDR2 back up and beat it, so it wasn’t a complete waste.
You ain’t missing anything in that front.
It’s not that bad, Jesus.
Everything it does other games do better.
Space travel and exploration (space and ground, seemlessly), as well as space combat? Elite: Dangerous.
Story? Literally anything.
Combat? Damn near any shooter made in the last 20 years.
Dungeon looting? Just play Fallout 4, which has plenty of issues but none as bad as Starfield.
It’s not bad. It’s just not good at anything. I have no reason to play it over so many other games. It feels like it doesn’t know what it’s supposed to be, so it doesn’t do anything well or interesting.

I haven’t played Starfield. But that was pretty much what I felt playing No Man’s Sky.
I didn’t say it was bad. Just that you’re not missing anything if you don’t play it. Where do I say it’s really bad?
My i7-3990k with a 1060 came out of retirement for Baldurs Gate 3 and now I have plans of giving it a new life as our private cloud gaming computer at home, since my wife decided to start playing some games as well (puzzle games like Creeks).
Private cloud gaming, you say? That sounds like something I might need to look up.
1070 gang checking in
