Well it depends on the resolution but he was using a 3090. The main thing though is the CPU this time around because as you crank those settings up, the CPU starts becoming the bottleneck.

While you can help your GPU by using DLSS and such while keeping the settings up. Your CPU will still struggle with everything cranked unless you have a high end CPU like Ryzen 5000 series or newer.

Really? Interesting. I currently have a Ryzen 7 2700x, but I'm planning on doing a new build for the beginning of 2023. I'm hoping to pair a 3080 with the next gen Ryzen 7000 series. By that time I'm hoping GPU scarcity is all but alleviated and CPU's should be completely available. 

God of War did receive a lot of patches post-launch, so I'm wondering if Nixxes will continue to optimize the game to where older CPU's aren't quite as much of a bottleneck as they are at launch.

Yea with that CPU, you will need to turn down some of the Ray Tracing settings. Not all of them though so you should still get a better visual experience than a PS5.
