Sony’s Returnal is coming to the PC, and while it does call for a pretty decent computer, only one requirement really raises eyebrows — the amount of RAM.

DisplayPort 2.1 became a much bigger talking point than expected when AMD revealed its upcoming RX 7900 XTX and RX 7900 XT GPUs. It’s the latest standard from DisplayPort, a revision to the 2.0 spec released in 2019, and it’s a natural inclusion for ne…
