Fair, but it's been shown time and time again that most users are either on "intro level" gpus or weaker. Heck, a midrange from 2 years ago is an 8gb card. I'm not sure how they expect to sell this game at all unless it's just planned to be a bundle add-on for the 50xx/90xx series cards.

Currently the most popular gpu according to the steam survey is a 3060. That plays the only other mandatory RT game, indiana jones, at 60fps on high. A 2080 can play on low at 50.

Yeah, but in this case I'm referring to vram. RT is what it is, and most "recent" cards support some kind of RT, even if not well. The concern is more that, for instance, the 3070 only has 8GB. I wouldn't ever say that the 3070 is nearing it's EoL either. The 3060 is the top card in steam, sure, but the next two dozen or so places are almost universally 8GB cards (with varying degrees of RT support) , including several 40xx series. I'm just saying that I don't see a hard RT and >8GB VRAM requirement playing out as well as a lot of people think.

I would say from 3000 series on 8gb was intro

Just a scam to get anything lower than that between then and now
