What the title says. What are you plan on playing starfield on? Xbox or PC?

I have a PC I built around 2011-2012 and only upgraded the GPU since then. It runs games like Skyrim, Fallout, City Skylines and Civ6 at highest settings. I’m a pretty sure I’ll need a new PC.

What are all you planning on using to play starfield? I’m leaning towards PC because I enjoy modding games but curious what you with Xbox think. Will modding be easier on Xbox now that there is no PlayStation version?

I have a 3070 that I got recently, but I still have my old i7 7700K processor. I've been putting off my mobo/cpu upgrade, I wonder if I'll need to do that

Creation Engine is fairly CPU intensive, so you may find limits at lower resolutions like 1080p. 1440p and 4K will relieve that somewhat.

If you consider an upgrade, something like the newly released Ryzen 5 5600X3D with 32GB of DDR4 would be usable for at least as long as the 7700K has been.
