Starfield mostly leans on your GPU because of its graphics-heavy nature, but don't underestimate the CPU demands for handling its vast, dynamic universe!

I ran Starfield on my rig, and it's definitely GPU intensive. My poor graphics card was sweating, while the CPU was sipping tea.

Honestly, I'd say it's both. The CPU handles the world, but the GPU makes it pretty.

Hot take: just upgrade both, your old setup probably won't cut it!
