If you want the equivalent visual quality of the service, I don't think a 4 year old $120 GPU is enough. Maybe you don't care about the game settings, but I was going for apples to apples.

If you read the article and the attached twitter threads, stadia's streamed content is not of high visual fidelity.

Being worse than an Xbox One _X_ doesn't mean you could run it on an old cheap GPU.

Also the PC version of Stadia seems extra broken compared to the chromecast version right now, and there's a tweet in there saying it looks a lot better on chromecast.
