The good games don't need a high end GPU.
Absolutely. True creative games are made by smaller dev teams that aren't forcing ray tracing and lifelike graphics. The new Indianna Jones game isn't a GPU-selling card, and is the only game that I've personally had poor performance on with my 3070ti at 1440p.

Anyone that preorders a digital game is a dummy. Preorders were created to assure you got some of the limited physical stock.
