Here's a question for you guys. Which PC games in the past few years do you consider to have really good scalability for different hardware configurations? My votes would go the recent DOOM and Wolfenstein games. They can run on anything from a jet engine to a toaster. What are your picks?

You got my vote with Doom. Plays well on anything and the Vulkan inclusion is great.

GTAV very well optimized and tons of graphic settings.

@Yams1980: I would actually recommend Shadow of the Tomb Raider in DX12. It's unlike other DX12 games in the fact that it actually gives you a 20+ FPS boost. The graphical fidelity is so high in that game, that it runs slower in DX11 because it's trying to fit everything it tries to do on a single CPU thread.

How far back we going?

I still maintain that the Source engine is arguably one of the best optimized game engines of all time. It's only just now starting to show its age.

More recently, I'd wager Frostbite (Battlefield) is probably one of the best. Yeah if you turn it up all the way it will bog down even the mightiest of computers, but it scales incredibly well, and more importantly runs amazing on a modest rig; I've a Geforce 980 and I am playing it at high-ultra settings and getting 50+ FPS average.

Lineage Classic is good for slow PC specs if you consider online games. Playing almost smooth gameplay during sieges on Skelth with 4gb of ram and i3 cpu.
