All games are listed in random order without being assigned any specific ranks. According to the DSOG editors, a well-optimized PC game can scale well across multiple CPU cores and does not suffer from “console” side effects (low field of view, poor controls). The list includes demanding titles, but they justify their graphics card requirements.
- Portal RTX – a modern game with full path tracing. The graphics justify the GPU requirements.
- Stray – does not require a high-end PC and delivers 60 fps across various systems.
- FIFA 23 – next-gen football on PC. Runs at 60 fps on an AMD Radeon RX580 at 1080p/Ultra settings.
- GRID Legends – a nice-looking, well-optimized game.
- Sonic Frontiers – a game without major issues, though there are complaints about low draw distance (a fix is in progress) and a 60 fps lock.
- Need for Speed: Unbound – a beautiful game with no issues that does not require a high-end PC.
- Sackboy: A Big Adventure – one of the best-looking 3D platformers, but enabling ray tracing is best avoided.
- Sniper Elite 5 – a beautiful game with great optimization.
- Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales – one of the most gorgeous open-world games without major issues.
- Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 – looks great and runs smoothly across a wide variety of PC configurations.
