factorio isn't CPU or GPU bound though. memory bandwidth is typically the bottleneck, at least according to the developers.
I'm glad the developers have prioritized game mechanics and sim optimization over graphics, and I think the game looks good enough for what it is. but I wouldn't mind if they improved them either. they could do a lot before it meaningfully impacted UPS for megafactories.
