I'll just leave that here. While some studios work on outdated AWS/Twitch integration, real innovation is taking place elsewhere.

Behold the first ever mmo/Tinder integration:

I will add the RX 6700XT in the first build is about 25% more powerful than mine and mine runs the game at 1440P highest settings more than fine.
The RTX 3060 is about 15% slower than mine, its just that Nvidia or AMD don't currently make anything that fits in the middle for around <$400. My GPU was $480 8 months ago.

R-3700x for a CPU is pretty middle ground, I paid less than 200 quid for mine with about the same for the Asus 570x ROG-Strix mobo. The 2070 super does just fine too :)

A reminder that your performance outstrips the telemetry page by a fair whack Intrepid, and may not be the average experience.

According to that page the closest GPU / CPU build listed (slightly better GPU build there) on 1440P averages 43fps

It umm.... its lumped a first gen refresh Zen core in with a third gen Zen core, that's all i need to know about that. :)

Mine falls in roughly the same bracket...I get consistently more than 43fps though, like everything Star Citizen...anywhere near a main port or spawning area I'm lucky to reach 30-40 fps, usually at Lorville or especially New Babbage, the highest I can expect is 20fps. It's not my PC that's lacking either....considering I run Metro Exodus RTX only enhanced edition with full monty RTX and DLSS at 60fps+

I'm sure it's full of issues ;)

But according to their daily updates on that page, there isn't one combination of kit covered that's getting over 60fps.

So either the telemetry page is completely borked, and has been all this time. (Despite going through global shifts with each patch which are suggestive that it's capturing some data of note). Or there are some other parameters at play than the ones they track.

(For my money it's a mix of missing elements. Other hardware factors, such as our old friend SSD, as that's not covered, and likely RAM size, as mentioned previously. And then old hand tricks, such as pagefile monkeying or whatever. The type of stuff you and Mole will definitely have done, picked up on the evocati & concierge grapevine, or just through prolonged play etc. But others may well not have.)

Yeah i noticed that, the best performance seems to be about 47.5 FPS

At Loreville sure, its like its giving you just about the worst performance to expect.

Its got my pairing right, tho more weirdness, its lumped an RX 6800 in with my GPU, the RX 6800 is way faster.

I might take a run through Loreville later...

Edit: no, 50.4 in there....

Maybe it doesn't need to be a great computer, but that doesn't stop the faithful backers blaming a person's hardware every time they had bugs or bad performance ;)

This is true, however, one thing about hardware is also true, it is unplayable with a spinny disk, at the very least you need a SATA SSD, $45 for 500GB, to get a really smooth experience an M.2 NVMe drive, $60 for 500GB.
These are not expensive upgrades :)

Sure, and i think most people these days have for a long time been playing on SSDs, so its especially funny when someone blames the HDD, saying install it on a SSD, when it already is, and then laugh as they flounder around looking for something else to blame it on.... anything, except for the game itself.
