    It would be incredible if they’re able to pull that off.

    I hate the trend of just pushing more and more graphics through up-scaling technologies. My electricity bill isn’t too happy either.

      Considering the game still requires a minimum of 16gb of memory and an 8gb graphics card I wouldn’t say it’s not pushing more and more graphics. All that the specs imply is that the bottleneck will be the GPU.

          That makes sense. If they set up the pipeline for Star Citizen, then cut out all of the processing needed for networking, then you end up with a lot of headroom on the CPU. However, some of this will obviously be consumed by AI (as in video game AI).
