4060 is a good barometer for a lot of cards out there. Cards several generations back can hit its rasterization performance. The 3600 is also below what I’d consider the average cpu for people playing this game. I’d have to look at Steam stats to confirm but a 4070S gimped by a 3600 is likely a great example of midrange.

The Steam survey doesn't seem to display CPU model, only GHz and core count, which is kind of useless. But it does list GPU model, so...

I personally think my rig is pretty "average" and I have a Ryzen 5600, which closes the gap a bit with the mid-range GPUs. The 3600 is 6 years old now, so I imagine the type of people playing a new release have also probably upgraded their hardware.
