I wouldn't say you need the latest and greatest to run Zwift but as long as you have a decent, current system you should be fine. Like anything, technology keeps moving along and it has to be respected. I run Windows 10 on a IBM Thinkpad with a 2.9 Ghz processor, hooked up to a 21" monitor and things work fine.
It looks fine for my purposes and I just keep following the butt in front of me when I'm in group rides or races or I watch GCN videos when I'm riding casually.
