that this is a niche subject... is it? if so, how much? does anyone freaking build gaming PCs here at all? that, first off, i'm mostly curious if anyone follows this pandemic ordering electronics for the home; boredom ordering cryptocurrency for the lulz. both of these leisure activities: [we need grafix cardz, we need grafix cardz] now, well, where are we at currently? everyone has rebuilt their stuff to work from home, and now they're out of money, and fuck off with that giant TV; it was silly to even want... nvidia, those troopers, have clearly not gotten the memo that consoles turned into a dumpster fire as soon as they were internet connected. because, then, "oh we can just release the game with bugs and release updates with the paid DLC later" instead of "we are making 5 million NES carts on spec and if there is a bug ALL OF IT GOES TO THE LANDFILL so let's get it right guys" that being said: who the fuck would bother with PC gaming, with this shit, microwaved $1200 duck feces, when you could get a PS5 setup for half that? even though PS5 is freeze-dried duck feces |

that's kind of it. i'm not sure gamers even rate anymore -- except the ones who are just twits who want to have the flashiest rig with the most expensive crap possible; then barely even use it for what it's capable of. so what are we left with? is this just about reaming professionals, now? if you do 3D modeling for a living you need this, so you'll pay it? everyone else; it's not relevant? but, no, i think it's just price gouging. money is more addictive than cocaine and nvidia in denial that GPU prices should 1/4 of what they're asking if they want people to give a fuck about the framerate on cyperpunk 2077. so now they're like and no, $800 MSRP, taxes, shipping, markup, might even sell out because some people can kind of almost afford this leftovers, yeah. i think you can do just fine with a GPU from 3 years ago so long as you're wary and don't buy an overcooked one from a decommissioned mining rig. did you know: once you submerge a card in flourinert, that's pretty much it? good luck getting it to work again not like that? same for any living creature immersed in oxygenated flourinert |
