I’m halfway through a 10 year cycle, with a 1060 3Gb on a 7th Gen i5. It’s mostly Civ6, Stellaris, and Rocksmith 2014 @ 1080p so it’s fine. The main problem is end-of-life for Windows 10 without support in the current hardware, and Rocksmith doesn’t work well on Linux. I’ll probably keep it as-is and start from scratch… when I see a title that I want to play enough to drop big cash on hardware.
Hardly surprising since they were acquired by Google.
