Personally I think gaming justifying better hardware is getting way too out of hand. Here's a two reasons why:
-After you go >30 fps, you're just adding filler since the human eye won't be able to visually process anything higher.
-What happened to gameplay?
Good gameplay should BY FAR outweigh graphics. With all these hardware upgrades, you're sending software companies a bad message. They'll continue just pushing graphics effects instead of decent gameplay.
I think the pure fact that people are claiming that Supreme Commander needs 4 cores is terrible. Not because they're wrong, but SINCE WHEN DID ANY RTS NEED THOSE KINDS OF RESOURCES? Since when is an RTS about graphics quality?
