I voted no because playing on an almost identical system yields about 80FPS at 3440x1440. On a 4K display it would hit 60FPS in open areas, but it would fall well below that in cities and instances team events.

What the heck is going on with the Can I Run It? function. Older CPUs (is a 1st gen Ryzen old?) have disappeared, and the option for selecting the exact card is unavailable. In short, it's broken. Is anyone working on getting this fixed?
