oof

I played Cities: Skylines 2 on a PC equipped with an i9 9900k and an RTX 3080, a rig that's perfectly capable of solid performance when it comes to even the most technically demanding games out there. Still I found myself needing to drop the settings not just down to medium, or even to low, but to very low in order to get frame rates that exceed 30 frames-per-second with any regularity. Forget the 'Can it run Crysis?' meme, because PC gamers are about to start using 'Can it run Cities: Skylines 2?' as the new benchmark of top-line gaming power.
