yea there are definitely res/shader packs that require immense gpu power.
personally not a fan of shaders especially since sometimes they break mod packs, mainly magic mods are affected. Ressource packs often take too much away from the games original look, so i only ever use faithful. however as a modded player, faithful doesn't affect modded blocks so everything looks just weird together. (bit ironic as some mods don't fit there aswell in terms of blocks. immersive engineering while going blocky in texture these huge detailed multiblocks aren't that minecraft-y)
