Maybe OT, but games like Infinity show that the capabilities are endless.

The GPU most likely won't be the bottleneck when it comes to the number of planes or other active objects. Especially given that SoW's models have a relatively conservative polygon count. We don't know yet how CPU-heavy SoW's AI will be, but I have no doubt that new damage and flight models will take a toll.
