Nintendo had the same thought apparently, as the Switch 2 Joycons support rotation

Do we want to see what framerates a CPU could support if the GPU wasn't the bottleneck? Of course. Knowing you have headroom for the future so you can upgrade your GPU without your CPU limiting you is valuable. But so is knowing that upgrading your CPU today won't do a damn thing for you.

There's no fucking point showing that a $2000 GPU and a $500 CPU can hit 500 fps playing a game at 1080p. Crank that shit up and put it at 4k. If there's minimal difference in performance over the last couple CPU generations because the GPU is the bottleneck, that's an amazingly useful result.

What matters to a user is answering one big question: "If I have these parts, how much gain will I get if I upgrade this one part? Is that worth the cost?"

They can then evaluate several options for that component, or other components, and figure out where to best spend their money.

No that's why it has a bunch of wires, you goober

I don't make friends when I argue with people, and they never change, because they don't care about being right.

I don't know how to be better about this stuff. If I call people out for misinformation, am I fighting a good fight? Or should I learn to detach myself and just let shit slide? How?
