Considering how good Black Myth: Wukong looks, some of the specs here are surprisingly old. For the minimum specs, the GPUs are around eight years old at this point, while the recommended GPUs are exactly five years old.
Due to the claim that all the specs were tested with frame generation software if you have these specs and don't use this software, the game may run at below what you might consider an acceptable performance.
Considering the frame generation software like DLSS/FSR/XeSS can lead to artefacting on the screen, which lowers the overall quality of the image, despite the software's purpose of attempting to interpret a higher quality image, this is quite disappointing to see.
We'll just have to wait for the game's release to see how exactly it performs and whether the devs are using frame generation software as a crutch for poor optimisation.
