I imagine LTT did that for meme purposes more than anything else. Threadrippers are not built for games. They're built for production workloads which don't translate to gaming performance.
That said, the point still stands. This game needs the most powerful gaming hardware (e.g. Ryzen X3D series and RTX 4090) on "recommended" settings and 1080p to get averages above 60fps, which is wild. There's a rather dedicated fellow on reddit who does detailed performance tests after each patch.
So very fucking glad I haven't bought this game.
I bought it for my girlfriend’s birthday and had to go through and refund it because of just how poorly the game ran even with everything set to minimum.
I got ok performance out of it on a 1660.

What are some characteristics of modern, multi-threaded games that don't match up to production workloads as far as the CPU is concerned? What do you consider a production workload? How does it differ from CS2's simulation system?
