From my perspective, GPUs remain essential in any gaming setup.
Various games demand different levels of processing power. Some need heavy CPU usage, while others work well with single-core speed or rely on future updates. It’s likely the video will end with uncertainty—“it depends”—but generally, adding more cores improves overall performance until a certain threshold where CPU upgrades offer minimal boost in gaming speed.
Ensure you have powerful cores or additional cores for less powerful CPUs, or else the game might not start and the whole system could fail.
