It seems the Corsair One has been around for ~5 years, and launched with a GTX 1080[0].
Though I agree with the overall point that such a GPU should be sufficient to run modern games, unless you're insisting on 4K and higher quality settings with a certain frame rate target... which seems likely; he espouses GeForce Now, but laments having to play in 1080p. So it's odd that he isn't getting enough performance at 1080p out of a GTX 1080 (or higher). At 1080p, his CPU might even be the bottleneck (Core i7-7700K).

- CivBase 4y agoHuh, I didn't realize the Corsair One had been around that long. The GTX 1080 would definitely be a more compelling case for an upgrade. Hard to believe it will be three generations old soon. And yeah, it's odd that a GTX 1080 would struggle enough at 1080p to justify streaming. Latest "AAA" game I've played is Elden Ring and I didn't need to make many visual compromises to get 60 FPS at 1080p. But I haven't played many other recent "AAA" titles so maybe ER isn't very representative. I'm also on an i7-9700K, so your CPU bottleneck theory might hold water.
