It's like an arms race, as I'm sure that developers are using the latest hardware available to do things that were never before possible on older hardware, and are trying to be first to market. Using software designed for that specific hardware generation is a much better experience! Future proofing your computer from years ago only carries so far into the future! I hate to put systems that still run well out to pasture, but it is what it is. It's fine if you want to keep running hardware for years, as I do. Expecting the latest software to perform on hardware that is a few generations behind is unrealistic IMO. My philosophy is that the generation of hardware and software should match up, within reason. ![]() The ones that use too much processing power don't make the team. When I audition plug-ins, I look carefully at their performance, how well they use resources. I don't know if it's that I'm good at winnowing or what, but my i7 3770 system is adequate to the task of being my main DAW, and was so up until a couple of months ago. I have so many good plug-ins that I can adopt a policy where if a plug-in can't run well on my i7 6700 system, it's not the computer that's going to get replaced.
