I’ll do you onetwo better: my computer’s from 2012. I can play even modern games on high settings sometimes. It wasn’t even a high specced one at the time. I think I put about $1200 into the actual components AND monitor/keyboard.
Everyone’s different. Maybe for you playing a game on “high settings” in 1080p@30 is enough but others might prefer 4k@60 or 1440p@100 or more fps. Also, define “modern”.
