Yes they are more optimized, that’s how they are able to keep up as well as they do. A 3070 completely blows away the current console gen specs wise. Due to optimizations, it is a lot closer than it looks on paper but 3070 is still ahead by a sizeable margin.
I’m not here to shit on consoles. I said they are the base experience. The “good enough” experience. If OP’s card is outdoing that by a significant amount still, he doesn’t need to upgrade. If he’s getting the same performance of consoles, that’s still good enough. If he’s starting to dip below consoles, maybe consider buying a new GPU or CPU, or maybe just get to more of your backlog for a while. Realistically he’s got around 4 more years, maybe more the way pricing for electronics will affect how fast requirements go up.
Yes they do, which I said above.

Don’t quite believe a 3070 outperforms a PS5 (is the peo a thing?) or the series X.
But I also havent looked into it so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
For anything else: True dat ;)
