It's more visual novel than game. The most gameplay you'll get are the seizure-inducing shooting sections which weren't fun even emulating the Saturn mouse because some shootouts change the sensitivity to compensate for controller.
If you want to grope the women in the game you probably want to avoid prudish let's plays and stick to the less-censored-than-PS1 Saturn version.
>800€ mid tier gpu
AMD RX 6700 XT - 300-330$
1080p gaming - every game 80+ FPS on maxed out ultra settings. Intended purpose is barely reaching maxed out ultra settings 60 FPS on 1440p
I mean in comparison to before mid tier gaming is still expensive as hell, but not as bad as you make it out to be.

Amazon DE from Germany are these prices. Though man, those delivery fees made me buy everything locally anyway.
Another interesting option is to VPN to neighbouring countries and see if they deliver to yours, it was really hard to find someone who does PC parts, but for everything else worked like charm.
So with enough effort you might be able to save up
i'd have to pay local tax for everything anyway so prices aren't that much different. but i probably want to go with used nvidia anyway because of cuda
Last time I upgraded was 2015. Everything I thought was worth upgrading for back then sucked, and nothing has changed since. I'll never upgrade again. Fuck video games.
my pc was like 900 bucks but that's barely more than the ps5 (this was also about 2 years ago so after inflation it would be more like 1500 bucks, lucky I got it when I did.)

correct. your $500+monthly subscription to play online console is more expensive in the long run. they also force you to buy games you already own. you don't even have to buy games on pc.

Not in terms of power because it's a fucking potato, but in terms of what it can play and customizability.
well they need to say it that way otherwise it stop being funny >when your $1200 dollar PC is better than a $600 console
doesn't have the same punch to it
No PC is created equal. According to Steam most users have integrated graphics. A lot of the so-called power users here have old and slow CPUs and ancient BUS speeds and RAM bandwidth holding back whatever recent GPU they use... and despite the price and max GPU FLOPS their systems are worse than the consoles. And a good portion of the PC gamers here have no problem spending hundreds to thousands on GPU upgrades but then don't want to pay for games which is really fucking weird. PC gaming is just a mixed bag, there is no standard, everybody's setup is different. And at the end of the day most PC gamers are just playing the same old shitty games that could run on a smart phone these days
>most PC gamers are just playing the same old shitty games that could run on a smart phone these days

my man. just started up a new run last night after not playing for a while. Already noticed some balance changes that will change the way I used to play.
Consoles suffer from limited game variety, I can't play RTS and strategy games on a living room paperweight and with a toy controller. Go ahead, call me a boomer.
Why would I do that? If I only need a new PC to play 4 new games, then that $1000 PC's cost is effectively spread between those 4 games. So if the games were $80 on Steam, I'd effectively be paying $330 per game. That's retarded.
>spend $1700 upgrading PC >regret it immediately >return all of the parts >go back to using my 1060 playing my silly little games with no performance issues
not worth it bros.
>build $4000 pc >play the same consoleslop but in some placebo resolution/framerate that's actually unperceivable by the human eye
I'd understand if there were at least some exclusives that take advantage of the PC's increased power, but as it stands PC gayming is just an aggressive way to burn money without any real benefits.
>resolution/framerate that's actually unperceivable by the human eye
you've destroyed your fucking eyesight or you're too retarded to set things up properly and are mad about it
>le humans can't see faster than 60fps 🙂
The human eye doesn't perceive in frames at all, the upper limit for the eye's ability to perceive shit is literally the speed of light.
>placebo resolution/framerate that's actually unperceivable by the human eye
depends how shit your eyes are
imo anything above 1080p 60fps is a waste of time unless youre an autist, but its easily achievable for poorfags
Wasting thousands of dollars on some silly little gaming hardware is still something only a manchild who can't be trusted with money would do. >inb4 but muh im not poor
youre still a fucking gay manbaby and if any female lays eyes upon your rpussy-repellant rgb battle station she'll turn 360 degrees and walk away, because no man who can take responsibility, bring up children and care for a family would own this thing.
I'm not poor, I have the money for my battlestation, and believe me I can only pray it will continue to make women fuck off. My life is far less complex and far more enjoyable without an actual eternal child to look after, only for no-fault divorce to make my life worse anyway.

moron gaming is cheap as fuck considering other hobbies, if the fags that pay 1K are manchildrens then i don't want to imagine how the fags that pay several Thousands of bucks in cars, or collecting
Are you just extremely bad at math or something? $60 for an entire year (optional) is literal ass wipe money. I would pay 3 times that amount if they asked. No hackers in my online games is priceless.
>resolution/framerate that's actually unperceivable by the human eye

>le humans can't see faster than 60fps 🙂
The human eye doesn't perceive in frames at all, the upper limit for the eye's ability to perceive shit is literally the speed of light.
The human eye does not run on fps, that's not how light receptive cones work or how images resolve in the visual cortex as a result of the signals they send. Frames Per Second is how frequently still images can be flashed on a screen to give the illusion of motion, because there's no other way to do that.
You can pay less for a PC.
You can buy a PC that is cheaper than a console (and still have a shitload of games to play because PC has games from the 70's all way to now, and most of em run in garbage hardware).
Just looking at the usage isn't enough, you need to look at benchmarks like GPU busy. That all said, I have a 12gb 3080 and had an OC'd 10600k then upgraded to a 13600k and it made a huge difference with the 1% lows. Everything runs significantly more stable now.
yeah i figured that would be the case,but i'm still happy enough with the performance for now. I'm saving up to buy a house soon and am putting off any big expenses until after.
i haven't tried gpubusy yet but it looks neat.

so i just installed intel's presentmon tool and did some testing with Hitman 2 as it's the only game I have on hand with a repeatable benchmark tool
gpubusy almost perfectly matches frametime most of the time, but when it first loads the scene or whenever it has to load new assets, gpubusy drops to between 80-50% of frametime. vast majority of the time it's fine, i'll definitely start pricing out a new system to upgrade shortly after i move though.

Nice. I don't think Hitman is that demanding, though. I noticed the biggest differences with RE4, and KCD the most. KCD in Rattay dipped to like 60fps sometimes, but it stays above 100 even in the busiest parts on my new CPU.

>waaaahhhhh why is everyone assuming people are from english speaking countries on an English-only website

I have no problem paying $4000 for a PC, since it gives me the freedom to do anything I want, whether that's piracy, emulation or Modding out the nogs or "Pronouns" and shit like that. Most console games are getting ported anyway nowadays, and if there's anything I want to play from some toaster-level hardware I can emulate it at 4K.
I don't know what I would be Upgrading to since I already have a 4090 I bought on release day and a new CPU/MoBo combo with 64GB RAM.
>When my $1000 PC is better than a $500 moronbox/station + $200 television + $60 controller + 1x!!!!!!! $70 videogame
My PC has replaceable parts
I have access to pretty much ALL THE VIDEOGAMES. Even TYRONE SOULZ, TYRONE VS COPS, Nekopara vol 1-3, Futa Fix Dick Dine and Dash.
Im not limited to buying only $70 games. Im not limited to only buying [Spinning moron] game.
Also i can do other shit on PERSONAL COMPUTER than play videogames, i know thats crazy!
Consoles "only" cost $500 but you have to pay for the online service, the games are more expensive and you can't pirate them, so in the long run they become substantially more expensive.
You're looking at at least a 2700X, 1060 6GB, 512GB NVME, 16GB of RAM (>8GB) and a hopefully decent controller (included in the console price!) just to match the S on paper, while still needing the case and power supply to run it.
If you go used for PC parts then don't forget the price of a used S goes down too.
>ryzen 7 3700x >RTX 2080
Yeah, I feel like the time has come, but I not buying a highend garden gnomevidia gpu until they fix that retarded power connector. Fuck right off and take your 12 pins with you.
It only costs like $1000 to get a PC with the same specs as the current $500 consoles though. If you're spending $2k or $3k, then you're set for gaming for much longer than a console will be relevant.
XU2595WSU. It's 1200p 75hz which is thoroughly unimpressive nowadays, but some games like RE4make can definitely push my 6700 to its limits even with just that
It's a nice IPS panel and I'm very happy with it. I'll probably grab a G24qe-20 when I upgrade my GPU in a couple years, since it's the only 24" 1440p high refresh rate monitor I could find that's IPS and not TN. 27" is too big for my shallow desk
enable AMD-V and rip out your TPM chip
You know what, I might just disable TPM for now since I have no need for it and I'm sticking to W10
I've never had to use a VM but I guess I might as well enable the extension for it, idk why it's off
Even though it's true that video cards have become ludicrously expensive in the last few years, I just don't really care because it's like a once per ~3-5 years thing that I upgrade my computer and the cost is utterly negligible compared to other expenses in my adult life.
Good games run on anything, and the new shit that is clawed to sell video cards can not even be called games, so fuck them along with the developers, and I will sit on my 1050ti and fart in a shabby chair until this fucking world is not plunged into the darkness of oblivion.
I just need a better GPU and CPU.
From a 2060, 4070 worth the extra shekels over a 4060ti? I'm not willing to go any more expensive than that right now
I never understood this angle. I have one hobby and it's gaming (and hiking but that doesn't cost shit so it doesn't play into this). If it costs me 4k every couple years that's still one of the cheapest hobbies a man can have. If you enjoy gaming, why not have the best tool for it and upgrade as often as is reasonable?
I'm not like one of these retards spending 10k on mineral oil cooled ricer shit every year. I'm just saying if you decide to upgrade every some years it runs you far less than any other hobby. Games are absurdly inexpensive too considering how much entertainment you get out of them.
I completely understand if you have more important hobbies that you're spending on instead but come on man. Life isn't all saving money, live a little. I say that as someone who's still putting an absolute majority of money I make aside and save for later parts of my life.
>just upgrade your pc bro it's so easy! >the new gen of GPUs is only 800$, what a steal! >oh, but you don't want your old CPU to bottleneck you now, better upgrade that as well >of course, you need a new mobo since it won't fit into the old socket >also you need to update your RAM to the new gen 🙂 >better check that PSU has enough power for all this new iron! >those new games are awfully big, should probably get a new SSD or two, just in case
Biggest scam I ever fell for.
if that sounded complicated to you then you're retarded
if that sounds like a scam to you you're double retarded. Future proof your builds, have some leeway and know where your bottlenecks are
If it's sounds not worth the money to you then just don't. If your hobby isn't worth 500 bucks a year tops then you're just not very passionate about it and you probably should get the cheap solution that you dont have to worry about financially if you're in such a position
Funfact being subscribed to PS+ since it's pay to use has ran you over 800 USD by now and you get absolutely fucking NOTHING for it gay. Now thats a scam. Atleast when nvidia garden gnomes you you still get a gpu for it.
I refuse to upgrade my PC. I'm going to run this bad boy down until it stops working. I've already dedicated myself to letting Steam run itself out in the 110 days I have left.
I upgraded my 10 year old i5 and now I can play TTW at silky smooth 120 fps with 300 mods. It still crashes after a while without fail but I’m pretty happy tbh
$1000 for a PC's library, + a ton of utility you won't get from a digital toybox, + modding, + emulation I won't have to shell out for every new generation, + it's been able to run pretty much everything for these last 2 console generations because dev's expected requirements have mostly plateaued.
It's a good deal for AM5 prices, It's what AM5 will be worth in 2 years so if you're looking to build a sub $700 PC I'd buy it/
GPU's are still astronomically high both new and used. A 6700XT is still $350 with tax when it should be $200 maximum.
A 6600xt should be a $100 GPU(on par with 5700xt) but it's overpriced at $300.
You can buy a 5700xt for $100 which is 15% less performance than a 6700xt right now with a little risk, only downside is the drivers only really work well on linux.
>microcenter
that's the punchline. 26 stores across 19 states. 24 across 17 if you only count open ones.
Chances are if you have internet and are into gaming I'd assume you live at least in hour near a goyslop big city with a microcenter where you could drive.
I doubt there's many people on Ganker that live in the fields of nebraska or hills of west virginia where it's 4+ hours to drive to a microcenter.

Nah, I just bought a higher end PC (7950x and 3080ti) not too long ago. I got a lot of friends who want to get into PC's who don't want to spend 2000 dollars like the memes say though so this is always good to know
I should move to south america, ship my gaming PC, buy land, setup a 400w solar panel setup with 2400W capacity batteries and then game on my banana farm rent free
Consoles are all different brands of watered down PCs with no unique architecture or any exclusive games. There's really no point to them any more. It's not the 5th or 6th gen anymore.
You have it backwards. There's no reason to build a high end PC when every game is on consoles as PC has no exclusive games worth building for. Pizza tower and void stranger can run on a fucking calculator. Save $3000 and avoid PC entirely or use whatever free laptop you got from school/work/graduation gift etc. Consoles get every PC exclusive eventually.

Modding can increase some games enjoyment value to over 400%.

And controller also blocks you out from fuck ton of games instead of keyboard and mouse layout that brings 110+ buttons.

>There's no reason to build a high end PC when every game is on consoles as PC has no exclusive games worth building for.
A PC can play every game at proper framerates and resolutions. It can also emulate. I played TotK at 4k 60fps while people playing on Switch played at a choppy sub-30 fps and God knows what resolution.

I used to be a consoletards, then I grew a brain and built a PC. Built one for my fiancee too. More games, better graphics, and I don't have to pay a monthly subscription to play the games like console babbies do. Highly recommend.

Currently on i5-7600, 1070, and 16GB thinking of upgrading to i5-13600K, RX 7800, and 32GB. I've just never used AMD before so I dunno the reliable manufacturers.
You're already spending over $1000. At that point spend the extra few hundred bucks and get a 4070ti because it'll handle everything at 1440p for a good 5 years and can do ray tracing if you want it.
Nah, I'll just stick with my upgraded laptop I bought on ebay. I can pretty much play any game I want with it. (Emulates PS3 games and lower console games + most games at decent settings.)
I upgraded my PC like 4 years ago and don't forsee needing to upgrade it again for several more years
I would like to consolidate this mess of old hard drives piled in there before the oldest one shits the bed. Set up an external backup with them instead or something.
High end PCs are cringe, but so are consoles.
Just get yourself an IGPU machine, a 1080p screen and blow the rest of the money with gunplas or prostitutes, or prostitutes dressed as haman or something.
>no hackers on consoles
That's cute, he thinks he's safe on console 🙂
No, consoles can be hacked. That's one of the best parts. All my games are free if I want. Problem is for competitive hackers they need to buy a console in addition to a PC and have a hundred more steps when they could just hack the same game on Steam much easier. It's not that they can't hack, it's that they're hacking you and not me because you're an easy target.
Are you just extremely bad at math or something? $60 for an entire year (optional) is literal ass wipe money. I would pay 3 times that amount if they asked. No hackers in my online games is priceless.
This is some next level copium. That's the best excuse you can come up with for being a rabid bootlicker?

For some upgrades, you need to use your brain and not just throw money at your rig

Dude that’s fucking sick. I would be too worried about breaking my shit setting that up but it looks really cool.
I will upgrade my GPU soon just for Koikatsu VR.
Last nut I busted was in Koikatsu VR and let me warn you it’s not as fun as it sounds. But it’s definitely something worth trying out I suppose. It hits different

It all depends if you got the right cards and/or scenes.

I’m not sure what you mean. When I used it I just picked what girl I wanted to bang and picked a location and went at it. Honestly I got more turned on by just looking up her skirt and putting her in different positions around the map than when I actually tried banging her. The sex was kinda hard to see unless I pointed my head downwards at a 90 degree angle and the dudes shoulders kept clipping into view so I had to just disable the players body and it was just a floating dick going in and out of her. Also I didn’t have a free hand so I just had to prop my fleshlight against my guitar case and squat down to fuck it. Thankfully I was super horny already so I came pretty easily but afterwards I remember saying “Jesus fucking Christ man that was a lot of work for a jerkoff” and decided next time I’d just stick to playing it on my screen

actually I returned that stand because it wasn't secure, as you see i had to prop books under the right corner to keep it from swinging free
I returned it and got this one instead: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BMS6KF7F/
it only rotates 90 deg in one direction, can't swing all the way around, and has to be screwed/unscrewed every time i swing it, but it's secure as fuck and won't accidentally kill my niece if she bumps into it lol
it's also unfortunately tall for this room, so i have to lean it forward when i rotate or the corners hit the ceiling, but i'm hopefully buying a new house soon
only pic i have of the new setup but had to censor it cause i stupidly left my email on the screen when i took it

also yes it was still significantly better than being limited to 60hz, but nowhere near as smooth as PC, not to mention it renders at a lower res in 120hz mode on PS5 whereas my PC can run rock steady at native 4k

You can gradually see improvements until around 120 ish fps, then you get very diminishing returns.
t. bought a 165hz freesync monitor recently, 60fps feels weird to me now
That's fine if you don't believe me. You're part the PC cult so my existence invalidates you. You must deny it as PC falls further into irrelevancy. I know how this works.
>When your $500 console can only play Sony $80 Sony games, but can't emulate all previous consoles, browse the internet, complete productivity work (programming, video editing, music production, word processing, etc), pirate current gen games, isn't upgradable for longevity, no online subscription model, and has worse graphics than PC.
It's not about being able to afford it. It's about being comfortable spending that amount of money. I am. I have to be if I'm going to justify my input devices that cost as much.
If I thought OP didn't have at least 4k in the bank I'd tell him to stop wasting time on Ganker and get his shit together
How much money should I have in the bank as a 25 year old who’s only bills are YouTube premium, Apple Music, Nintendo Online, and Xbox Live? I have $5700 right now and feel like I’m fucking bulletproof. I saved up $7000 for my prebuilt 4090 13900k pc and that was the most money I ever had at one time
$7000 for my pre-built 4090 13900k pc
Has it really become that pricey? I don't think I spent more than $1500 on my 3080 12600k. You have my condolences
My $1000 PC is better than any console because I can do more things than just play games, AND I can play AAA games
yeah but you can’t run starfield
My $1000 PC is worse than any console because if I put a sega saturn disc in it, it won't play immediately.
The Saturn is literally the only retro console that can’t be decently emulated.
That's not true at all. I emulate Saturn games and they run fine.
Disagree. I just finished emulating Policenauts with Mednafen.
Is Policenaut fun? I am thinking of emulating it on my S23 Ultra since it easily plays PS2 Games
It's more visual novel than game. The most gameplay you'll get are the seizure-inducing shooting sections which weren't fun even emulating the Saturn mouse because some shootouts change the sensitivity to compensate for controller.
If you want to grope the women in the game you probably want to avoid prudish let's plays and stick to the less-censored-than-PS1 Saturn version.
The story was okay, typical buddy cop.
I am a brainlet how do i "combine" multiple disk games so mednafen can play them correctly?
ideally you have cue files

My $2000 PC is better than a $500 console, thank you very much.
I only upgraded my pc once in the last 10 years
>800€ mid tier gpu
thanks but no thanks
>mid tier GPU still out does a PS5
but a ps5 is cheaper than a mid tier gpu alone
at least I can play what I want on a PC.
can't argue with that
>800€ mid tier gpu
AMD RX 6700 XT - 300-330$
1080p gaming - every game 80+ FPS on maxed out ultra settings. Intended purpose is barely reaching maxed out ultra settings 60 FPS on 1440p
I mean in comparison to before mid tier gaming is still expensive as hell, but not as bad as you make it out to be.
400€ here but sure. nobody is selling them used locally though
Euro? Your country is overcharging a bit.
https://www.amazon.com/amd-radeon-rx-6700-xt/s?k=amd+radeon+rx+6700+xt
Amazon DE from Germany are these prices. Though man, those delivery fees made me buy everything locally anyway.
Another interesting option is to VPN to neighbouring countries and see if they deliver to yours, it was really hard to find someone who does PC parts, but for everything else worked like charm.
So with enough effort you might be able to save up
i'd have to pay local tax for everything anyway so prices aren't that much different. but i probably want to go with used nvidia anyway because of cuda
>upgrade pc

Last time I upgraded was 2015. Everything I thought was worth upgrading for back then sucked, and nothing has changed since. I'll never upgrade again. Fuck video games.
Thats why rich people buys a Rolls Royce instead of a Corolla, they might go to the same place but how they go is completely different
excuse me, it's $5500 PC (adjusted for inflation)
>upgrade your pc
so that I can continue playing the same old games? no
my pc was like 900 bucks but that's barely more than the ps5 (this was also about 2 years ago so after inflation it would be more like 1500 bucks, lucky I got it when I did.)
Don't own a PC, never have. Doing just fine with my Switch + PS4/5 + phone.
imagine unironically doing all the digital work on your phone lmao
you're most definitely a tech illiterate zoomer and probably a neet too
Anything worth done can be done on a phone. They can even do shit like run RE4 remake or Village natively.
If a developer makes something that can't be used on a phone, it's not worth considering.
Games are also played on a couch, not at a desk.
whatever you say sour grapes moron
doing things on a pc is several times faster than aggressively scratching your little zoomer screen
And being able to do things whenever wherever I want is infinitely better than plopping your ass down at a desk.
Something that the vast majority of the population agrees with.

I make $100K USD a year, so whatever helps you sleep at night dude.
And I make $200K, so yes
I exclusively use my PS5 for anything work related and I earn $220K USD.
NTA but i work on my phone and i gain 300K every month. My job? Stealing people
Just think of how much you could make if you actually knew how to use a computer.
I know a guy who does video editing and even though he has a high-end laptop, he still does it on mobile because the apps are just better and it's more streamlined.
then he's retarded, nothing more to it
being restricted to a tiny screen and your fingers is a handicap unless the user is already handicapped
making tiktok and instagram videos is hardly video editing anon
Not a single penny more than what I already make. Computers are irrelevant in my work. Every time I needed something my phone does a better job.
I don't get why boomers think it's an unforgivable sin to not have a computer. They're pieces of hardware that are rapidly becoming obsolete in this day and age.
>Computers are irrelevant in my work.
There are almost no cases where this is true.
>They're pieces of hardware that are rapidly becoming obsolete in this day and age.
You are profoundly mentally retarded.
Case in point. The boomer just can't imagine how people live without a computer.
Whereas literal billions of people use it as their sole driver.
Get with the times boomer.
>Whereas literal billions of people use it as their sole driver.
Indians and zoomers, neither of which are people.
If your job doesn't benefit from using a computer then it's either purely menial or meaningless
What a stupid take.
can you prove it wrong?
Yes, there's an absolute fucking ton of labour that doesn't directly benefit from computers that's crucial to making your current lifestyle possible and requires education to do properly. That doesn't mean the other guy is right in that computers are pointless, he's a retarded tech illiterate, but you're equally retarded making a blanket statement the way you did.
Or he's a professional athlete, which he's definitely not.
the best things if life are meaningless though
life is meaningless. you can cope and try and create your own meaning by slaving away for the garden gnomes if you want
My brother is an electrician and never uses a computer and he makes more money than me working in IT.
then you work in a shit company or just suck at your job; unless you live in some first world country where they are desperate for electricians
You're either underage, or a college kid with 0 experience in the professional world. The average company workforce is almost completely based around computer work, even if it's just a boomer plugging info in a spreadsheet all day.
just curious:
what is your job, anon?
Microbiology Analyst
that's a very specific job; maybe you don't need a PC there (i have no idea obv) but you shouldn't use your job as the standard when it comes to this topic bc almost nobody else in society actually does what you do
You're full of fucking shit. You're either outright lying about your job or your some entry level lab tech LARPing if you're saying that computers have nothing to do with that job.
NTA, I think what he meant is that he needs no PC sonce his phone can do the same as well
your phone cant do most things as well or as fast as a pc. sure it can do them but theyre mostly awkward and a pain, touch screen just sucks compared to keyboard and mouse. it can phone people better but thats about it
That's still wrong. You absolutely need PCs for any kind of biological research. What does he run APe on? How about ImageJ? SAS? Even if he's one of those girl-tier retards who can't do statistical analysis on his own, he still needs to use shit like Prism.
Yes, that would be an entry level lab tech job.
>Yes, that would be an entry level lab tech job.
Yeah it was shit. Made me want to kms. I only lasted a few months before quitting and going back to college to change career to IT. They wouldnt even let me go into the higher grade clean rooms as I was too clumsy lel.
Anon said he makes 100k. That means he's associate scientist level or higher. That almost means he absolutely fucking needs a computer to do his job. Writing reports and papers, making DNA constructs, managing databases for enzymes, statistics, etc. Biological research is one of the most computer heavy jobs there is this side of straight up programming and IT. He's an idiot or a liar, or more likely both.
Yeah most of my friends who stayed working in science never made much money. Most of them are still on around 40,000-50,000 even after about 10 years experience as they never really progressed high up the ladder. You'd kinda have to be an idiot to stay in lab work as the pay is so bad unless you get a high up position.
Don't waste your time, anon. That guy youre replying to sounds like he worked as a helper bitch for the maintenance department.
I worked in a lab straight out of college years ago in 2015 before changing career to IT and all I did was go around checking water samples and air samples. I never used a computer at all. I just brought samples from around the plant back to the lab and tested them in the fume hood.
My in some fields a PC is obsolete, but I'd hate to only work from a phone when troubleshooting IT
It is about convenience.
correct. your $500+monthly subscription to play online console is more expensive in the long run. they also force you to buy games you already own. you don't even have to buy games on pc.

No PC is created equal. According to Steam most users have integrated graphics. A lot of the so-called power users here have old and slow CPUs and ancient BUS speeds and RAM bandwidth holding back whatever recent GPU they use... and despite the price and max GPU FLOPS their systems are worse than the consoles. And a good portion of the PC gamers here have no problem spending hundreds to thousands on GPU upgrades but then don't want to pay for games which is really fucking weird. PC gaming is just a mixed bag, there is no standard, everybody's setup is different. And at the end of the day most PC gamers are just playing the same old shitty games that could run on a smart phone these days
>most PC gamers are just playing the same old shitty games that could run on a smart phone these days
call me when there are new games worth playing
until then its tf2 l4d2 and gmod for me with a sprinkle of DRG

my man. just started up a new run last night after not playing for a while. Already noticed some balance changes that will change the way I used to play.
Consoles suffer from limited game variety, I can't play RTS and strategy games on a living room paperweight and with a toy controller. Go ahead, call me a boomer.
Nah, I'm a zoomer and I agree. I can't imagine playing civ, or something like steel division 2 with a fucking controller
Why would I do that? If I only need a new PC to play 4 new games, then that $1000 PC's cost is effectively spread between those 4 games. So if the games were $80 on Steam, I'd effectively be paying $330 per game. That's retarded.
why?

I'd understand if there were at least some exclusives that take advantage of the PC's increased power, but as it stands PC gayming is just an aggressive way to burn money without any real benefits.
I'm pretty sure I can tell 60fps apart from 30 but this is bait anyways
The current meme is 120-140fps.
I can kinda feel a difference going up to 90 but past that I just can't notice anything significant enough to warrant hundreds of dollars to upgrade
60 to 150 is almost as big a jump as 30 to 60. I notice it immediately.
Wasting thousands of dollars on some silly little gaming hardware is still something only a manchild who can't be trusted with money would do.
>inb4 but muh im not poor
youre still a fucking gay manbaby and if any female lays eyes upon your rpussy-repellant rgb battle station she'll turn 360 degrees and walk away, because no man who can take responsibility, bring up children and care for a family would own this thing.

moron gaming is cheap as fuck considering other hobbies, if the fags that pay 1K are manchildrens then i don't want to imagine how the fags that pay several Thousands of bucks in cars, or collecting
Femoids don't care about expense, they don't want men having hobbies that don't result in them getting attention, it's all they care about.
My brother fixes up old cars as a hobby and women seem to like that

Ok loser
What a stupid gay
The average consolefags wastes more money on fucking online subscriptions than anyone else
Are you just extremely bad at math or something? $60 for an entire year (optional) is literal ass wipe money. I would pay 3 times that amount if they asked. No hackers in my online games is priceless.
>no hackers on consoles
That's cute, he thinks he's safe on console 🙂
>resolution/framerate that's actually unperceivable by the human eye
you've destroyed your fucking eyesight or you're too retarded to set things up properly and are mad about it
>le humans can't see faster than 60fps 🙂
The human eye doesn't perceive in frames at all, the upper limit for the eye's ability to perceive shit is literally the speed of light.
The human eye runs at 28fps, your brain simply fills in the blanks, so it doesn't make a difference as long as the presented framerate is stable.
The human eye does not run on fps, that's not how light receptive cones work or how images resolve in the visual cortex as a result of the signals they send. Frames Per Second is how frequently still images can be flashed on a screen to give the illusion of motion, because there's no other way to do that.
>placebo resolution/framerate that's actually unperceivable by the human eye
1440p is barely any different from native 4K from my couch
depends on how big your tv is i suppose. if youre using something below a 50 inch screen i agree
LG 55B2, 55 inches. I have another 4K that is 43 inches and it is the best for 1080p native
depends how shit your eyes are
imo anything above 1080p 60fps is a waste of time unless youre an autist, but its easily achievable for poorfags
You can pay less for a PC.
You can buy a PC that is cheaper than a console (and still have a shitload of games to play because PC has games from the 70's all way to now, and most of em run in garbage hardware).
Seriously these shitty ports as of late just exist to make me abandon the legend.
Mayyyyybe in about 15 years i can do it. Kinda strapped for cash for the next 10 or so
I'm waiting for PCIe 5 and nvidia 50xx cards
t. OC'd 8700k + 3080ti
You're bottlenecking the ever loving shit out of that GPU.
I have a 65" LG C1 and play at 4k/120hz, as well as a valve index, in either instance i'm normally sitting at 99% GPU usage and ~40% CPU
Just looking at the usage isn't enough, you need to look at benchmarks like GPU busy. That all said, I have a 12gb 3080 and had an OC'd 10600k then upgraded to a 13600k and it made a huge difference with the 1% lows. Everything runs significantly more stable now.
yeah i figured that would be the case,but i'm still happy enough with the performance for now. I'm saving up to buy a house soon and am putting off any big expenses until after.
i haven't tried gpubusy yet but it looks neat.
>I'm saving up to buy a house soon and am putting off any big expenses until after.
I'm not even bothering until interest rates stop being so fucked.
> i haven't tried gpubusy yet but it looks neat.
Yeah it just released and it's actually good for measuring bottlenecks.
so i just installed intel's presentmon tool and did some testing with Hitman 2 as it's the only game I have on hand with a repeatable benchmark tool
gpubusy almost perfectly matches frametime most of the time, but when it first loads the scene or whenever it has to load new assets, gpubusy drops to between 80-50% of frametime. vast majority of the time it's fine, i'll definitely start pricing out a new system to upgrade shortly after i move though.
Nice. I don't think Hitman is that demanding, though. I noticed the biggest differences with RE4, and KCD the most. KCD in Rattay dipped to like 60fps sometimes, but it stays above 100 even in the busiest parts on my new CPU.
pc is only expensive if youre a brainlet and upgrade when you dont need to
you could have gone from a 7870 to a 290x to a 5700xt and still be fine for the next 5 years, thats like 3 cards for 15+ years
people just fall for the marketing meme and get a new card every generation for slight upgrades
>when the PC you built 6 years ago is better than the newest consoles still
>access to the libraries of every previous console ever made for fucking free
PC is an investment that pays off massively. The value is so much better that it's fucking insane.

A 386DX is better than a console
I have no problem paying $4000 for a PC, since it gives me the freedom to do anything I want, whether that's piracy, emulation or Modding out the nogs or "Pronouns" and shit like that. Most console games are getting ported anyway nowadays, and if there's anything I want to play from some toaster-level hardware I can emulate it at 4K.
I don't know what I would be Upgrading to since I already have a 4090 I bought on release day and a new CPU/MoBo combo with 64GB RAM.
it could be worse
some people here spent thousands on gimmicks like VR, steam deck, and ps5
we both play games on the platforms we like.

My PC has replaceable parts
I have access to pretty much ALL THE VIDEOGAMES. Even TYRONE SOULZ, TYRONE VS COPS, Nekopara vol 1-3, Futa Fix Dick Dine and Dash.
Im not limited to buying only $70 games. Im not limited to only buying [Spinning moron] game.
Also i can do other shit on PERSONAL COMPUTER than play videogames, i know thats crazy!
Consoles "only" cost $500 but you have to pay for the online service, the games are more expensive and you can't pirate them, so in the long run they become substantially more expensive.
>$300 console
So the Xbox Series S? Not hard to build a better PC than that. Or expensive.
You're looking at at least a 2700X, 1060 6GB, 512GB NVME, 16GB of RAM (>8GB) and a hopefully decent controller (included in the console price!) just to match the S on paper, while still needing the case and power supply to run it.
If you go used for PC parts then don't forget the price of a used S goes down too.
the price goes down but the monthly price of xbox live doesnt
id feel differently about console gaming if the online was free like on pc
Small mistake: the case is optional.
I agree with the first sentence but the post said build.
*has 100 times more good games than a console*
No Bloodborne...
Consoles have no factorio
I need reasons before pulling such a stunt.
I'd rather get a Pixel 8 since my phone is shit.
>ryzen 7 3700x
>RTX 2080
Yeah, I feel like the time has come, but I not buying a highend garden gnomevidia gpu until they fix that retarded power connector. Fuck right off and take your 12 pins with you.
that stuff is still pretty good anon. especially the CPU. that cpu is still top tier for 99 percent of things most people will do including gaming
It only costs like $1000 to get a PC with the same specs as the current $500 consoles though. If you're spending $2k or $3k, then you're set for gaming for much longer than a console will be relevant.
I'm gonna run my 980 into the fucking ground first thank you very much.
Waiting for Zen5 or 15th gen because devs are retarded.
I managed to run about half the games released this year with my almost decade old pc, i'm still good for another year.
How come consolemorons will spend $10k on an entertainment setup and then get angry at a PChad's $4k setup?
I will, $200 + selling my old GPU to update my PC for next gen gaming, and all my previous gens still work 🙂
Im not gonna update my PC
I am 2019 build o toole!
I already got a new GPU last year, a CPU for christmas and upgraded to 32gb ram this year
what else do you want me to do
What display are you using?
XU2595WSU. It's 1200p 75hz which is thoroughly unimpressive nowadays, but some games like RE4make can definitely push my 6700 to its limits even with just that
It's a nice IPS panel and I'm very happy with it. I'll probably grab a G24qe-20 when I upgrade my GPU in a couple years, since it's the only 24" 1440p high refresh rate monitor I could find that's IPS and not TN. 27" is too big for my shallow desk
You know what, I might just disable TPM for now since I have no need for it and I'm sticking to W10
I've never had to use a VM but I guess I might as well enable the extension for it, idk why it's off
enable AMD-V and rip out your TPM chip
my $4000 pc can play every game, can your one console do that?

Explain how this is a bad thing.
You can play games a lot more recent than 2016 on a budget PC that cheap. Here's a hastily put together build:

What year are you from, traveler?
Even though it's true that video cards have become ludicrously expensive in the last few years, I just don't really care because it's like a once per ~3-5 years thing that I upgrade my computer and the cost is utterly negligible compared to other expenses in my adult life.
Good games run on anything, and the new shit that is clawed to sell video cards can not even be called games, so fuck them along with the developers, and I will sit on my 1050ti and fart in a shabby chair until this fucking world is not plunged into the darkness of oblivion.
I bought a Rysen 9 7950x3d.
My processor is better than 98% on this thread.
It's also an overpriced meme that delivers terrible value compared to the 7800X3D.
I knew that before buying, but I had some money saved, I regret nothing tho.
I just need a better GPU and CPU.
From a 2060, 4070 worth the extra shekels over a 4060ti? I'm not willing to go any more expensive than that right now
The 4060ti is godawful value, avoid at all costs.
That's the general sentiment I'd been gathering, but I also hear the 4070 is shit too
I mean it's shit in the sense that this entire generation of GPUs is shit, but at least the relative rate of shittiness is better.
You're going to want a 4070ti for 1440p gaming.
>1440p
I don't see the point, I'm happy enough with my 1080 screen. Shame about the weird ghosting in 144 mode, so I leave it at 120
I sit on a pc and use m/kb for 8 hours a day. I have no desire to do more of that just for slightly better graphics
I never understood this angle. I have one hobby and it's gaming (and hiking but that doesn't cost shit so it doesn't play into this). If it costs me 4k every couple years that's still one of the cheapest hobbies a man can have. If you enjoy gaming, why not have the best tool for it and upgrade as often as is reasonable?
I'm not like one of these retards spending 10k on mineral oil cooled ricer shit every year. I'm just saying if you decide to upgrade every some years it runs you far less than any other hobby. Games are absurdly inexpensive too considering how much entertainment you get out of them.
I completely understand if you have more important hobbies that you're spending on instead but come on man. Life isn't all saving money, live a little. I say that as someone who's still putting an absolute majority of money I make aside and save for later parts of my life.

Biggest scam I ever fell for.
Where's the difficulty? In not being poor?
if that sounded complicated to you then you're retarded
if that sounds like a scam to you you're double retarded. Future proof your builds, have some leeway and know where your bottlenecks are
If it's sounds not worth the money to you then just don't. If your hobby isn't worth 500 bucks a year tops then you're just not very passionate about it and you probably should get the cheap solution that you dont have to worry about financially if you're in such a position
Funfact being subscribed to PS+ since it's pay to use has ran you over 800 USD by now and you get absolutely fucking NOTHING for it gay. Now thats a scam. Atleast when nvidia garden gnomes you you still get a gpu for it.
i just bought a used 6900xt for 480€. curious if it turns out to be a scam
I refuse to upgrade my PC. I'm going to run this bad boy down until it stops working. I've already dedicated myself to letting Steam run itself out in the 110 days I have left.
New games are plain bad
>building a 1440p high refresh rate gaming PC is expensi-ACK!
Consoles use upscaling to get 4k60fps and they run at low/medium settings mix.
🙁
I upgraded my 10 year old i5 and now I can play TTW at silky smooth 120 fps with 300 mods. It still crashes after a while without fail but I’m pretty happy tbh
How long since consoles were 300 dollars
They are $700 now because you need a 4K TV too.
series s?
My PC is more expensive than my car and runs better than my car.
im playing AC VI on my PS4 right now. I didn't even pirate it. I bought it. how mad are you now?
I'll upgrade my Ryzen 5 this December and my 3060 this march, hopefully 🙂
$1000 for a PC's library, + a ton of utility you won't get from a digital toybox, + modding, + emulation I won't have to shell out for every new generation, + it's been able to run pretty much everything for these last 2 console generations because dev's expected requirements have mostly plateaued.
Yep. It is worth it.
>PC parts are expensive ACK!
IF you live near any city in america you can get a next gen processor, mobo and 32gb of ram for $133 each.
The only thing that's overpriced right now is GPU's so literally just wait or get a used $100 5700xt off ebay and use linux drivers.
Man that's actually a really good deal. They also have 6750xt for like 350. You have get 90% of a computer that's actually pretty good for 700 bucks.
https://www.microcenter.com/product/5006269/amd-ryzen-7-7700x,-msi-b650-p-pro-wifi,-gskill-flare-x5-series-32gb-ddr5-6000-kit,-computer-build-bundle
It's a good deal for AM5 prices, It's what AM5 will be worth in 2 years so if you're looking to build a sub $700 PC I'd buy it/
GPU's are still astronomically high both new and used. A 6700XT is still $350 with tax when it should be $200 maximum.
A 6600xt should be a $100 GPU(on par with 5700xt) but it's overpriced at $300.
You can buy a 5700xt for $100 which is 15% less performance than a 6700xt right now with a little risk, only downside is the drivers only really work well on linux.
Chances are if you have internet and are into gaming I'd assume you live at least in hour near a goyslop big city with a microcenter where you could drive.
I doubt there's many people on Ganker that live in the fields of nebraska or hills of west virginia where it's 4+ hours to drive to a microcenter.
>Chances are if you have internet and are into gaming I'd assume you live at least in hour near a goyslop big city with a microcenter where you could drive.
Unfortunately despite their generous 33% coverage of the continental US this is not the case.
>if you're looking to build a sub $700 PC I'd buy it
Nah, I just bought a higher end PC (7950x and 3080ti) not too long ago. I got a lot of friends who want to get into PC's who don't want to spend 2000 dollars like the memes say though so this is always good to know
>microcenter
that's the punchline. 26 stores across 19 states. 24 across 17 if you only count open ones.
South American here.
They are expensive as shit down here. I'm in the upper 15% of earnings and even I have a hard time justifying the price because of the fucking tariffs
I should move to south america, ship my gaming PC, buy land, setup a 400w solar panel setup with 2400W capacity batteries and then game on my banana farm rent free
if you're a richfag in your shithole just take a trip to america and back
PCs are for writing code and shitposting on Ganker. Consoles are for gaming.
Consoles are for simping for a single company.
Consoles are all different brands of watered down PCs with no unique architecture or any exclusive games. There's really no point to them any more. It's not the 5th or 6th gen anymore.
You have it backwards. There's no reason to build a high end PC when every game is on consoles as PC has no exclusive games worth building for. Pizza tower and void stranger can run on a fucking calculator. Save $3000 and avoid PC entirely or use whatever free laptop you got from school/work/graduation gift etc. Consoles get every PC exclusive eventually.

Correct. No hackers. God damn it's fun playing on official servers without your chud admins.
God I love that I can play 100% of every game ever made while you cope and seethe.
VR is fun but a gimmick as much as a control is a gimmick. You can't really make anything other than action games or simulators with VR.

I actually rely on walled gardens for no hackers. And I remove those walls if I feel like it. Did you not know consoles can be jailbroken or something?

Yup. Pointy clicky isn't skill. Sorry you just learned this.
PC vegans are so hilarious. Enjoy your cult.

controllers are for videogames, keyboards are for work
keep justifying your innecesary expensive purchases, you pc people are always so funny kek
>Does even remotely care about quality videogaming
I mean you eating shit is not really a win for you, it just makes you look silly.
Modding can increase some games enjoyment value to over 400%.
Being in walled garden blocks your access to millions of games.
And controller also blocks you out from fuck ton of games instead of keyboard and mouse layout that brings 110+ buttons.
Can't believe pajeets like you actually exist.
>There's no reason to build a high end PC when every game is on consoles as PC has no exclusive games worth building for.
A PC can play every game at proper framerates and resolutions. It can also emulate. I played TotK at 4k 60fps while people playing on Switch played at a choppy sub-30 fps and God knows what resolution.
Why not both?
Consoles are for bootlicking. There is no good reason to own a console, especially these days.
You have it backwards. There's no reason to build a PC. Especially now days when the only games you get are console ports. Enjoy your hackers.
dang hackers ruining my offline single player games!
Tech illiteracy in this day and age is really inexcusable. Our education system is a failure.
>he thinks building PCs is hard
Cool story bro. Let me know when you build an actual chemical and mechanical process like an ethanol still. Until then stick to your dark corner in the basement, NEET
Bro, are you actually making moonshine?
Yeah and corn mash bourbon
Sounds great. My personal favourite is peach cobbler moonshine. I just need to make sure to invest in some more mason jars so that I can make larger batches easier.
I used to be a consoletards, then I grew a brain and built a PC. Built one for my fiancee too. More games, better graphics, and I don't have to pay a monthly subscription to play the games like console babbies do. Highly recommend.
Idort > PC vegan
>haha I'm not getting fully fucked over, I'm just sucking some dick

No I just bough whatever platform had games I wanted to play which is consoles. My PC collects dust. No games. If that's sucking dick then you may address me as Sasha Grey.
Currently on i5-7600, 1070, and 16GB thinking of upgrading to i5-13600K, RX 7800, and 32GB. I've just never used AMD before so I dunno the reliable manufacturers.
You're already spending over $1000. At that point spend the extra few hundred bucks and get a 4070ti because it'll handle everything at 1440p for a good 5 years and can do ray tracing if you want it.
Might as well buy a 4080 at that point
Nah, that's a pretty fucking big price jump. A 4080 is also overkill for 1440p but not really good enough for modern games at 4k.
reading horror novels is more fun than video games
Nah, I'll just stick with my upgraded laptop I bought on ebay. I can pretty much play any game I want with it. (Emulates PS3 games and lower console games + most games at decent settings.)
My $2k PC is better than any $600 console and best of all, i get FREE (pirated) games, It pays for itself in a few months 🙂
My $1000 PC is better than any console because it's got a 3060ti in it.
I upgraded my PC like 4 years ago and don't forsee needing to upgrade it again for several more years
I would like to consolidate this mess of old hard drives piled in there before the oldest one shits the bed. Set up an external backup with them instead or something.
My 900$ dollar PC is better than two 600$ and one 300$ consoles. I WIN, moron.
High end PCs are cringe, but so are consoles.
Just get yourself an IGPU machine, a 1080p screen and blow the rest of the money with gunplas or prostitutes, or prostitutes dressed as haman or something.
Whats a good mobo these days?
Already at top tier specs. When new GPUs release, I will upgrade.
>buy multiplayer games
>jailbreak console
huh
A 800$ PC is all you need to surpass a console
Two consoles is all you need to surpass a PC and that costs even less
>pay for online play
>it's free but deal with Russian and Chinese hackers 24/7
I'll pay, thanks tho
no u bro
No, consoles can be hacked. That's one of the best parts. All my games are free if I want. Problem is for competitive hackers they need to buy a console in addition to a PC and have a hundred more steps when they could just hack the same game on Steam much easier. It's not that they can't hack, it's that they're hacking you and not me because you're an easy target.
This is some next level copium. That's the best excuse you can come up with for being a rabid bootlicker?
I just spent $818 on apple watch ultra 2 and $1.1k on iPhone 15. unfortunately, my new PC build has officially been moved back to November.
Gonna upgrade mine this weekend. My i5 2500k deserves to rest

There’s very little I can currently upgrade..
Your taste.
Is this better?
Worse actually.
You could upgrade from Windows 11 to a Linux distro of your choice and dualboot Windows 10 for the few Windows exclusives.
For some upgrades, you need to use your brain and not just throw money at your rig
>Linux
My $1000 PC from 2016 can still run the latest games at 50-60 FPS on high settings.
Now account for inflation. My $400 2023 console runs modern games at 60fps 4k
>My $400 2023 console runs modern games at 60fps 4k
they literally don't make a console that can actually run at 60fps/4k
I’m outta the loop, but doesn’t ps5 and SeX do it?
they claim to but everything i've seen shows games running at an unstable 45-50 fps and upscaling from 1440p
my friend has a PS5 and DMC5 claims to support 4k/120hz but I've seen it in action and it hits about 80 at best
Can you really tell it’s 80 just from looking at it? Honestly anything above 60 looks just a little better to me
I bought my first 120hz monitor Aug 1 2014 and it was immediately apparent to me on the LG C1 I'm using now, I also confirmed it through the TV (game mode settings where you can enable VRR/gsync shows the display refresh rate in real time)
Based, I’m also using the C1
i recognized your cabin lol, how's it going
i recently renovated my room with a new couch/folding bed, new surround sound (jamo concert series) and a TV mount that rotates vertical for shmups
SHMUPS!
Dude that’s fucking sick. I would be too worried about breaking my shit setting that up but it looks really cool.
Last nut I busted was in Koikatsu VR and let me warn you it’s not as fun as it sounds. But it’s definitely something worth trying out I suppose. It hits different
>Last nut I busted was in Koikatsu VR and let me warn you it’s not as fun as it sounds. But it’s definitely something worth trying out I suppose. It hits different
It all depends if you got the right cards and/or scenes.
I’m not sure what you mean. When I used it I just picked what girl I wanted to bang and picked a location and went at it. Honestly I got more turned on by just looking up her skirt and putting her in different positions around the map than when I actually tried banging her. The sex was kinda hard to see unless I pointed my head downwards at a 90 degree angle and the dudes shoulders kept clipping into view so I had to just disable the players body and it was just a floating dick going in and out of her. Also I didn’t have a free hand so I just had to prop my fleshlight against my guitar case and squat down to fuck it. Thankfully I was super horny already so I came pretty easily but afterwards I remember saying “Jesus fucking Christ man that was a lot of work for a jerkoff” and decided next time I’d just stick to playing it on my screen
get a hip/torso, they're much easier for hands free
my favorite so far is Puni Ana DX Kiwami
>over $300
I kneel
i'm up to 4 hips and about 14 onas at this point lol
i recently spent $400 on vibrators and prostate toys too, but have barely used them so far
What’s the point? I’ve got a vagina fleshlight and an asshole fleshlight and that seems like enough to me..

>the tendency is to push it as far as you can
i plan to buy a doll of my waifu Alice the day after I buy a house lol
Sex addiction
He needs more and better highs and different highs until the day he dies, he has numbed his brain to normal pleasure and needs more and more
What makes someone become like that versus someone like me who’s ok with just having a couple toys? My taste in porn is overall pretty vanilla as well
>spending hundreds of dollars on a sex toy
this is what outlawed prostitution does to a populace
Not him, but I’d much rather fuck a toy or my hand than the shame and disgust I’d feel paying another human to pleasure me in that kinda way.
Basically scenes are just premade animations, you can grab a MMD animation and a character and load them both too.
actually I returned that stand because it wasn't secure, as you see i had to prop books under the right corner to keep it from swinging free
I returned it and got this one instead: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BMS6KF7F/
it only rotates 90 deg in one direction, can't swing all the way around, and has to be screwed/unscrewed every time i swing it, but it's secure as fuck and won't accidentally kill my niece if she bumps into it lol
it's also unfortunately tall for this room, so i have to lean it forward when i rotate or the corners hit the ceiling, but i'm hopefully buying a new house soon
only pic i have of the new setup but had to censor it cause i stupidly left my email on the screen when i took it
>I would be too worried about breaking my shit setting that up
I bought the screen refurbished from microcenter and made up the difference vs new price with a screen protection plan, so if it burns-in or i throw a index controller through it i can get another one
>koikatsu
I downloaded the stuff for that and VaM but haven't gotten around to setting any of it up yet
making out with Melody Marks makes my lips tingle though, phantom sense is asmr on steroids
also yes it was still significantly better than being limited to 60hz, but nowhere near as smooth as PC, not to mention it renders at a lower res in 120hz mode on PS5 whereas my PC can run rock steady at native 4k
You can gradually see improvements until around 120 ish fps, then you get very diminishing returns.
t. bought a 165hz freesync monitor recently, 60fps feels weird to me now
That's fine if you don't believe me. You're part the PC cult so my existence invalidates you. You must deny it as PC falls further into irrelevancy. I know how this works.
My 1128 2023$ PC can run the latest games at 50-60 FPS on high settings.
>snoy vey its not fair to compare PS5 to PC because the PC costs sixty gorillion
I will upgrade my GPU soon just for Koikatsu VR.
>When your $500 console can only play Sony $80 Sony games, but can't emulate all previous consoles, browse the internet, complete productivity work (programming, video editing, music production, word processing, etc), pirate current gen games, isn't upgradable for longevity, no online subscription model, and has worse graphics than PC.
cool.
Is 4 grand a lot to you?
I spent $3.5k on my PC, but saying "hurr durr u can't afford several thousand dollars lmao" is a shit argument.
I could be a multi millionaire and I'd still prefer to spend as little as possible for the same performance.
It's not about being able to afford it. It's about being comfortable spending that amount of money. I am. I have to be if I'm going to justify my input devices that cost as much.
If I thought OP didn't have at least 4k in the bank I'd tell him to stop wasting time on Ganker and get his shit together
How much money should I have in the bank as a 25 year old who’s only bills are YouTube premium, Apple Music, Nintendo Online, and Xbox Live? I have $5700 right now and feel like I’m fucking bulletproof. I saved up $7000 for my prebuilt 4090 13900k pc and that was the most money I ever had at one time
$7000 for my pre-built 4090 13900k pc
Has it really become that pricey? I don't think I spent more than $1500 on my 3080 12600k. You have my condolences
I also have an 8TB SSD that I keep all my games on that cost as much as the 4090
I’m a manager at a grocery store so not far off really
if you flip burgers for a living then sure
okay but my super nintendo is still better than your overspecced shitbox
