Starfield: PC Performance, Complaints, Benchmark, Story Critique, and GPU Analysis

TL;DR Summary
Bethesda's highly anticipated game, Starfield, is CPU heavy and demands high performance from both the CPU and GPU. Testing on various GPUs revealed that at 1440p, the game runs at around 80fps average on high-end GPUs, while lower-end GPUs deliver around 38fps. At 4K, frame rates drop further, necessitating the use of dynamic resolution to maintain fluid gameplay. The lack of Nvidia's DLSS support on the PC side is a notable drawback, although modders have found workarounds. Overall, Starfield is a demanding experience on PC, and players seeking optimal performance may need to upgrade their hardware or consider playing on Xbox consoles.
