As someone who returned the original release on ps4 and never looked back I am now kind of interested in trying it again. This time on PC using the new one I just built (literally just finished building it an hour ago, won’t even get to turn it on until tomorrow) which should handle it about as good as it can get, minus Ray tracing since I went with AMD.
Oh I know it supports it, just huge performance hits compared to Nvidia. I just turned it on last night for the first time and everything worked great! 3 hours of updating and configuring later and I got to play Starfield for 20 min before bed haha.
I feel like I went higher end which is a first since I normally do mid range but weirdly enough it appears as if most stuff I purchased is mid range according to online? Here is my part list:
Case - Fractal Meshify 2 XL
Mobo - Asus rog strix x670e-f
CPU - AMD Ryzen 7 7800x3d
RAM - 32GB (16gbx2) Crucial Vengeance DDR5 6400
GPU - AMD Rx 7800 XT Sapphire Nitro
HD - 1TB Sabrent Rocket 4 Plus-G for OS and another 2TB one for games, also a 10tb Seagate drive for storage
PSU - EVGA Supernova 1000 gt, 80 plus gold, 1000W
CPU cooler - Noctua NH-U14S with 140mm fan
Fans - decided to replace stock case fans with 4 Noctua 140mm ones because I really did love my last build were I used 1 of their fans. Sure people think they look ugly but I don’t care for RGB and don’t display inside anyway. All I can say is wow they are the quietest fans I’ve ever heard.
Last build was 2016 with an i5 cpu and rx 480 gpu for comparison.
I was in the same spot with a ps4 and upgraded to a Series X. Still not as powerful as a pc, but the game was playable and fun on next gen so I’m sure you’d have a blast on pc.

AMD supports ray tracing. What’s your build? I just finished my new all AMD build as well Monday.
