And even then, this is not 2009 anymore. Sure, you still need a new card to play everything on max settings with new games, but you can get easily get by with moderate settings. I mean I haven't played Fortnite, but Destiny 2 is the same age (although the specs might be lower because I don't know how much the engine changed since Destiny 1) and it runs perfectly on ultra at 2560x1440 on my nearly 3 year old midrange AMD card with a 6 year old CPU.

Also what's up with kids these days not setting textures to potato mode to eke out the last FPS, like we did with Quake? :P
