Trouble running Starfield? Todd Howard says 'Upgrade your PC'
Asked why Starfield isn't optimized for PC, Bethesda director Todd Howard had some stark advice for gamers.

Runs fine for me. 5600X, RTX 3080 @ 1440p high-ultra settings native.
Same here except I use a 6600 xt, which isn’t anywhere near as good as your GPU. I’m running medium settings at 4k and it’s fine. It even runs on the Steam Deck, although the graphics are not so good on there. Still, it’s playable and I will probably play there when it’s convenient.
IMO, ultra settings are for people with new, high end hardware and to future proof a game for at least a couple years. It’s not for people running a 2-3 year old rig with a 1080p GPU. Medium and high settings are generally good. Ultra is just like bonus mode for hardcore enthusiasts.
Yeah, the reason why I mentioned my experience is because I'm finding people with better specs complaining and I'm like if we just turned the FPS counter off and enjoyed the game, I'm sure we'd barely notice it dips below 60 at times.
