I game on archaic i5-4460 (4 cores, max 3.2ghz), paired with rtx 2070 super and 16gb I can run literally everything new in 50-100 fps range, coupled with 34" 1440p VRR display not much more to desire for single player. Running this maybe 6 years with only graphic card and corresponding psu change.

Ie Cyberpunk 2077 everything max apart from rtx stuff and its rarely below 80fps, dlss on good looks. Baldurs gate 3 slightly less but still smooth. God of war same. Usually first think I install is some HD texture pack, so far never any performance hit to speak of. Literally why upgrade?

Consoles and their weak performance are effectively throttling PC games last few years (and decade before), not much reason to invest into beefy expensive power hungry noisy setup for most gaming, just to have few extra shiny surface reflections?

These are all old games so I wouldn't be surprised either
