I don’t know about that. My five-year-old [HP OMEN](https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c05389962) runs Cyberpunk with no problem but struggles with Starfield, even on low. I’ll have to save up and make the trip to Micro Center for a new motherboard, CPU, and GPU one of these days.

I already upgraded the GPU and other parts a couple of years ago; it has a 2060 now, which I think – judging from Newegg – is about as high as that mobo can go.
