I've been struggling to run Starfield and I can't imagine having a good experience on anything that isn't a 300X or 400X, unless I've been completely out of the loop and AMD has comparable or better cards for cheaper. https://www.amazon.com/6950-xt/s?k=6950+xt 6950 XT is the bang for the buck card right now. The video I linked should cover this if you watch it, but if it doesnt, reviews will, Are you using the DLSS mod? Starfield is poorly optimized, and using the DLSS mod / enabling FSR supposedly boosts performance about 30%. But aside from GPUs, the price of everything else is as low as its been in 4 or 5 years. So even if you must have a 4000 / 7000 top tier card, just save up an extra $500-700 depending on what you want. I have a Strix 3080 I got massively ripped off on when my 5700 XT was about to die during the bad times, and I dont feel any urge to update. Ran Armored Core 6 fully maxed, RT on, 120 or so FPS at 1440p, wi5 out even getting loud. --- Console war in a nutshell: http://imgur.com/xA6GJZ9.png <cite>PraetorXyn posted [p:976021275] in Anyone els...
