Half of those don't run on a potato, or your concept of what a potato is is pretty warped.
Factorio even has lag optimisation techniques because even a 3080 will have troubles if you don't optimise energy generation.
Factorio is usually CPU limited, it runs fine on my i9 with just integrated graphics and no discrete GPU at all.
Sure, but I wouldn't call an i9 a potato PC unless it has 10 years xD.
I should have listed my CPU, I have a 5800.
I think my point stands haha.
Yeah, I agree it's not a potato, just saying a 3080 is definitely not an issue for it
