It's just not.
I just dropped $4300 on a brand new desktop system.
I'm not sure I follow. What political thing is sustained by this? You are coaiming that thing could not be sustained due to the price of a toy? Think you could just delete the thread and repost it with like 50 words disllaying some form of minimum threshold for intelligence/argumentation?
Should have boughted it when it was $700
>>541813088I'm sick of this shit; I'm going back to retro.
>>541813088>What political thing is sustained by this?AI is sucking up all the memory raising the prices of consumer gadgets so we can beat the Chinese at surveillance and unemployment
>>541813088Who the fuck plays vidya games in 2026? If you are capable of big bonners, you should ve applying them to hot girl. Not playing electronic TV game.
Like lets say you only have $1000 to your name and you can't buy the toy, so you don't. What effective change donyou think this would cause to your life, the nation, the world, the price of the toy, etc? Anything bad in that list? What is the thing which requires sustenance which relates to the price of the toy in the picture?
>>541813088I can buy a ps 5 pro right now for under a thousand. Why are you spamming this shit over and over you 1 post by this id kike? Oh wait thats right you won't reply to me because you are a kike
>>541813088Sonyponys = ultimate goyThey deserve it
>>541813088Playstation is a nigger system here in the states anyway. The only thing that pisses me off is I used to only play with Whites on Arc Raiders, and now there's a bunch of shifty fucking Indians. Any time I'd dicking around on my brother's Xbox, everyone is either White or Hispanic. Meanwhile on PS it's like half and half. I don't want to be around niggers in real life, so it seems obvious I don't want to be around them in digital experiences either. PC is the best choice anyway, because niggers are too poor and retarded with money to buy the kind of PC that can handle high-quality PC games.tl;dr, The western world should be placed behind a digital firewall to keep thirdies out. That especially includes niggers.
>>541813250I just dropped a load in your whore mom.
>>541813250for coomin?
>>541813675might wanna get tested bud
>>541813088Stop posting bullshit.
>playing video games as an adult Pathetic
>>541813820He's a kike it's all he knows what to do. Post this OP then run away and make a miggers thread and run away from that
>>541813250I spent about $3000 on a new PC back in 2021 and it felt like a shitload of money back then.I just checked the prices for the parts for a new desktop I was planning to build and it would cost me over $5000 plus tax. Jesus H Christ.PC gaming is pretty much dead now for poorfags.
>>541813088I brought one on launch, played it on and off for years, then just sold it because I'm moving for like 80% of what I paid lmao
>>541813820>amazonFuck that. I bought a *new* Xbox 360 from Amazon back in the day and the thing sounded like a popcorn maker & the disc tray only sometimes opened. I imagine that's where all the rejects & returned shit ends up.
>>541813088Motherfucker I bought a fucking 3DO in 1994 for $699 ($1575 today) while working at fucking McDonalds. Please stop fucking whining. Video games are still the cheapest hobby to have. Fucking whiny children.
>>541814466It isAnd lots of knockoffs
>>541813984That’s entirely due to how much memory costs now.
>>541813572Get the fuck out of my country ranjit.
>>541813250those pixel art indie games are going to look great
>>541813733Kek. Based.
>>541813088i threw an xbox 360 at a fireplace one time AMA
>>541814619>I bought a fucking 3DO in 1994 for $699was it worth it? favorite game on the system?
>>541814956Fuck yeah it was. Picrel.
>>541813733>>541813733>might wanna get tested bud Checked. itt 33rd degree faggot suggests testing
>>541813984On the bright side there's no new games worth building a system for!
>>541813088I recently built two high end desktop systems for $2k-$2.5k. They both had 9950x3d and 32GB RAM, and the more expensive one had a 5070ti. So, for approximately the cost of two PS5s, you can have a system that will also be better than the PS6 when it comes out, plus you don't pay extra to play online.
>>541814619>Motherfucker I bought a fucking 3DO in 1994 for $699 ($1575 today) while working at fucking McDonalds. Please stop fucking whining. Video games are still the cheapest hobby to have. Fucking whiny children.What? Back then, places actually paid minimum wage. Nowadays, many bitch that the "minimum wage is too low", but every McDonald's is paying at least double and you can expect to see $14 to $18 bucks an hour. But back in 94, McDonald's likely paid you $4.25 an hour. So, you were looking at maybe $150 a week. Most jobs paid weekly back then. A typical beater car that would have been had by a teenager was $500. You bought a video game console? You must have been rich or something. Other things that you would have had to buy was probably taken care of by your parents.
i don't even know what games you'd play on it
>>541813088People are still buying consoles lol? For what? What games? I bought a PS5 and hardly used it. I'll never buy another console. I'm sticking to PC gaming
>>541813250>I just dropped $4300 on a brand new desktop system.Good investment. You'll be able to sell it used for $6k by the middle of next year.
>>541815437Not rich, lower middle class, bought my first car (1982 civic) in 92 for $475. Gaming was what I was interested in. I saved. And yeah it took a few months to save but I still have it. Turns out when you aren’t spending money on dumb shit it’s pretty easy to save it.
>>541813088>This is not sustainable
>>541813088>$1,300 for GTA 6 and.......Even in 2026, PS5 has no games
>mfw upgraded my PC right before RAMageddon hit
anyone who buys a console is a faggot you've been holding back PC MASTER RACE for decades anow.
>>541814466Everything I've gotten from their renewed program has been great. 2 PS2s, a GBA SP, two Wiis, a GC, all working and only very lightly scratched or worn, no dust contamination.
>>541813250how much ram did that get you?
>>541815867To be honest nshitia and gayMD have been holding it back by refusing to go above 8GB VRAM at the entry level which forces PC devs to make compromises.
>>541813088Ouch. I could build a decent PC for that.
>>541813250That will last infinitely longer and more usable than a game only system and will also eventually be able to play PS5 games.
>>541813088Get a previous gen console for $200 or something
Grand Theft Auto VI edition came out early
>>541813820Those are base PS5s. Search for PS5 Pro
>>541813088Haven't played anything made past RDR2 on my ps4. Most games I play are snes, n64 and gamecube roms on their respective emulators on my desktop in my bedroom. Modern games look pretty, but generally play like complete ass and have retarded leftist shit crammed into them. If that's your thing, enjoy i guess. I'll stick with tge free pirated shit I torrented well over a decade ago
>>541813820>stupid nigger didn't see it's the pro
>>541815691>Turns out when you aren’t spending money on dumb shit it’s pretty easy to save it.I hear that. That's the number one lesson I've been trying to give my friend. I got him into my place of employment last year and he more than doubled his income. But wouldn't you know it, he still has the same problems of never saving money while servicing incredibly high interest credit card debt. Against my better judgement, I just lent him yet another few hundred bucks. I don't understand why my friend is so stupid. He now makes double what the average American man makes, yet his behavior will ensure that he always remains broke and stupid. To top it off, I found out that he will never get married because as far as the government knows, the mother of his children is a single mother who needs welfare. I'm beginning to fucking hate the guy. He acts like a nigger. Why am I busting my ass paying a 22% federal tax rate to an entity who is in debt; an entity who demands tax money so that they can spend 42% of that tax collection on interest. Meanwhile, my economic peer believes that $32 every paycheck towards a very good health insurance plan is just too much. I mean, that's 4 packs of cigarettes and he has to smoke, but of course he does. He's a nigger. You're right. It's not difficult to save with just a little bit of applied responsibility. The people who do not hurt us all.
>>541815376My PC will probably be better than a PS6. Modern consoles are nerf guns.
>>541815968>they holding back muh gaems!!!Most retarded argument. The only thing holding back games is the lack of talent in the current games industry. Extra memory won’t make the games any better.
>>541815071"I have read your Terran bible with its prophecy about weeping and the gnashing of teeth. It is about to be fulfilled." - Prince Trakhath nar Kiranka
>>541816277No, it won’t.
>>541813250i dropped 4k on a pc in 2025, ram was 200$ per 64gb
>>541816293>the lack of talentYou mean the presence of women, trannies and shitskins
>>541816180You don't need the pro at all, it's a scam. Sony like Nintendo knows their fanbase will fall for anything. It's 3-10% better performance for 25-100% of the cost. And the performance doesn't matter because if you need performance in a game, you're playing a multiplayer game online that will ALWAYS work better on a PC.The gulf between PC and console for competitive gamine is immense. Single player games are as good on the stock PS5 as they are on the pro version.
>>541815634I spent 4300 on a 5090 using a payment plan, so base price was 4000. It's now on amazon for 7500 and I consider selling it every day.
>>541816376That is a big part of it, yes. None of them have any talent.
>>541813088Maybe don't put double digit tariffs on Japan lol
>>541816482lol, spending 4k on a gpu using a payment plan. You seriously aren’t going to make it….
I won't pay that amount of money for something I'll be using a few times a month. It doesn't make sense to me. Crazy expensive.
>>541816218I too can boomerpost a larp about a lucrative career and spice it up with insurance corpo cocksucking.
>>541813088a gaming console is a one time purchase so not a big deal
>>541816533This has little to do with tariffs and almost everything to do with the Ai boom. Also Sony interactive entertainment is headquartered in California.
>>541816596Yes, you never buy another console ever again once you buy one. Retard.
>>541816335Yes it will. Consoles aren't built for power and performance. They're built for niggers and manchildren(nintendo fans). They're slop. PS4/Xbone era is when they became glorified PCs, with bottom-barrel performance. Outdone by laptops. You get what you pay for. Consoles are the jeets of vidya.
>>541816218Yeah he’s never going to get it. What I’m about to say is going to sound like no shit common sense to a few of you but to most of you it’ll sound like lunacy. Here it is: Just because you have money after you pay bills doesn’t mean you have to spend it. People with money know that money propagates itself. Once you save a certain amount it starts making itself. You don’t have to be smart or good at math or a stock market genius. Stop wasting money. That’s it.
>>541813088imagine being a console poor lmao
>>541813088Now you know what PC gamers go through.
Gaming is dead because boomers wanted to invest EVERYTHING into a stupid chat bot that always degrades and shits itself.
>>541813597What if boomers don't get access to a retarded chatbot that fucks things up and hallucinates all the time? What are they missing out on if this thing just never happened?Lots of companies selfishly thought they could fire all their humans and replace them with bots only to find out the bots are retarded and more expensive so they had to re-hire humans.What's the fucking point?The abominable intelligence meme is a money grab, that's all it is.
>>541816956>Lots of companies selfishly thought they could fire all their humans and replace them with bots only to find out the bots are retarded and more expensive so they had to re-hire humans.For every 10 people fired they hire back 1 person.
Remember when the army recruiters gave out free Xboxes
>>541816855>Ignoring how modern games are woke.
>>541816578>>541816218I'm over 30 and was supposed to move to japan in 2020 but didn't because of covidWhen does my "real life" get to finally start? When does responsibility pay off, instead of just putting me ahead of the people who are dead broke but still able to live a similar or better standard of living?
>>541813088>thinks I'm going to spend money on consoles like commoner riff-raffI bet you think that I have to pay for monthly access to my steam account as well? Remove yourself, pleb. This is hallowed space for superior PC tech priests, not your call of duty circle jerk suds dispenser.
>>541813088Of course it isn't, anyone who's seen their gaming flops knew this was inevitable.
>>541817200You're mad because a good standard of living is normal in the west? Are you a fucking kike or something?
>>541813088lmao gaymers are not only gay but cucks now
>>541817271If you buy the Xbox, you're allowed to call your friends gay. That's the law.
>>541813250Yeah but it will last you 10 years
>>541813088I have over 60 phyisical games for my Switch but i dunno if i should get the Switch 2 now, i was going to wait for the inevitable revision with a better screen or battery life, but it might jump up in price soon from what i've heard.
>>541814619>Motherfucker I bought a fucking 3DO in 1994When it was released. PS5 is 6 years old.
>>541813088Modern gaming is dead. You either grow up and look for new hobbies or switch to retro gaming. Download an emulator and games as long as they are available. Many archives of ROMs are being slowly nuked too.
>>541817434>SARR YOU ARE THE FUCKING SARR JUST PLAY OLD GAYME SARRRI hope your shitskin monkey race goes extinct.
>>541817537>jeet projecting
>>541817537Indians don't play old games they weren't even here YOU LARPIST
>>541813556>>541813088I bought one of these recently and its basically a 1000 dollar youtube player. There aren't any games on here worth playing.
>>541817537>shitskin monkey race>retro gaming emulation. A Venn diagram of the two groups is a pair of tits.
>>541813984>PC gaming is pretty much dead now for poorfags.I want to say that this is a good thing, but there aren't even any good games being made now, anybody willing to drop thousands of dollars to play AAA slop and garbage indie games is a retard who didn't deserve to have that money in the first place.
>>541813088Then Playstation box will go out of business
>>541813250I'm so glad I did a new build right before covid. Would probably cost me almost 10K today
>>541817631Have tried sitting on a dildo and not telling your friends about it while on headset.Because they have.
>>541817563>>541817587>>541817659You absolute fucking stupid retards.You think tech companies don't hire shitjeet shills to post shit like this any time someone complains about the state of the industry?They absofuckinglutely do.You see it on /g/ all the time. But fuck you all go suck on his shit covered dick for all I care. Fucking retards.
>>541814901You know why it's called the Xbox 360? Because when you see it you'll do a 360 and walk away.
>>541817787>You think tech companies don't hire shitjeet shillsNo. They actively lobby against emulators.
>>541813088>sustainablewhat are we sustaining exactly? man children's need to play the newest flavour of slop?
>>541813088My PS5 digital broke earlier this year. It was the chip for the HDMI driver. The chip is no longer available on my 2 year old unit and it is not repairable without the chip. I have never moved it from the spot I put it in when I unboxed it and take good care of my stuff. Out $600 plus all the games and peripherals I bought. Nothing is worth a shit anymore. Been spending more time reading lately. Blessing in disguise
>>541817949Anybody who refutes you is a pajeet according to the retards in this thread
>>541817927I don't agree with him either obviously but a lot of the older companies make big money "remastering" or just reselling 30+ year old games on virtual console
>>541817787Put down the controller. The peasants have had enough. Tonight we rape all Jewish daughters. The revolution has begun
>>541817949>what are we sustaining exactlyDevelopment costs for Concord and acquiring Bungie.
>>541817787Streetshitter, have you even seen the state of modern games? It's not just that the consoles or PC hardware are overpriced, but the games themselves are just steaming pile of dogshit. You either get some overhyped crap from big corps that turns irrelevant in just a few days and have no replayability or you have to dig through some AI slop games until you find something decent. The later is probably why you are so mad, fucking jeet. Are you worried you can't scam people with AI generated garbage games? Kys
>>541818073>make big money "remastering" or just reselling 30+ year old games on virtual consoleWhich isn't what emulators are.
>>541815831Same I built my 1st PC maybe 2 years ago with parts I accumulated for the previous 2 years. Unfortunately like everyone points out there's not much to play. I guess Warhammer goes fast now
>puts on the Gorrila MaskTonight.
>>541813088That thing has 0 exclusuve games. Its a scam
>GTA 6 runs at 30 fps on base and pro ps5>Normalfags: BOYCOTT SONY. PHYSICAL GAMES.>also Normalfags: DAMNNNN MAN I NEED TO BUY THAT PS5 PRO TO EXPERIENCE GTA 6 AT THE BEST QUALITY. BUY THAAATT SHIEEETTT.
541813088 (OP)yes it is.
>>541813250You wasted money because there are no games in existence which can make use of it
>>541818120Yeah that's what I said it's an old game they are selling though that's exactly why they hate emulators and jailbreaking ect
you lost tranny poorfag liberal
>>541818133I'm into VR so there's still upgrade space to be explored. Basically just built a Ryzen 9600X system with a used 3090. I also only put 32GB of RAM in it thinking I could always buy more if I wanted in the future. Boy was I wrong.
>>541818224beep boop
>>541813088Does anyone give a shit about disc model base ps5s? Haven’t touched mine in a year, might flip it if people are paying out the ass for them right now
>>541818224At least I still have my Trump dildo
>>541813250I've spent 4000 dollars over the last 15 years on my PC and it's currently top of the line gaming rig. You are a dumb goy. Do you even resell your outdated parts?
>>541813820None of those are the PS5 pro, dumbass... also those prices are way too fucking high for the PS5 which released at like 500 dollars. KYS shill.
>>541818285>might flip it if people are paying out the ass for them right nowSort of yes sort of no, they (Playstation) charges a lot for them through retailers, but the resell value is kind of strangled by the lack of demand.
>>541813088Literally just buy a PS3 for less than 100 bucks and jailbreak it. Much better investment and way more games.
>>541818327>Do you even resell your outdated parts?There's nothing wrong with keeping and repurposing old parts. Or if you have friends that aren't into PC gaming (yet) just build a junk part system to lend them to give them a taste. Works every time.
>>541818285What's your firmware? If it's under 12.7 you can get it in developer mode and probably make several thousand dollars if you find the right buyer
>>5418181332 ywars? I was on the cusp, may or june 2025. £1600 for 7800x3d 5070ti 32gb ddr5 build
>>541813601They should be around $450. Lol. I got a 9900x, 32gb of 6000mhz ddr5, and an x870e mobo for $600 in February. Then I got a 9070xt for $585 and it came with a code for crimson desert (it sucks). All said and done it was around $1300 after taxes. Why in the FUCK would I pay even $500 for a console? >inb4 you have to pay for peripherals.Im still using the same case, SSD, and 1000w psu i bought a decade ago. Stay pleb.
>>541816956Now you know how I feel about roads and running water.
>>541816352>>541813250160GB of RAM server Chad right here.I spent like $180 total for 176 GB of RAM (I had dual CPUs) back in 2024, now it's worth like $700.
>>541816544Why not?
You should've become a PC gamer 3 console generations ago. Fuck you.
>>541818367Why is the PS5 Pro 2X the price of the OG, and only on average 5% better performance?
>>541818532My home server has 256GB but it's DDR4.
>>541813088Gaming consoles give me the ick, and I'm a man.
>>541816335CPU: Custom AMD Zen 6 processor with 9 to 10 cores for high performance and efficiency.GPU: Custom AMD RDNA 5 graphics chip with 52 to 54 compute units, pushing 34 to 40 teraflops.Memory: Rumored 20GB to 32GB of high-speed GDDR7 RAMHe's got 32 cores double the ram double the hard drive he's got 3 different 3d cards? I imagine he's got something the ps niggers don't which is good thermals. Or are you going to spend another 2 grand to custom watercool your shitbox?
>>541818429OR, you can just download an emulator for PS3, for free, and play games on that...
>>541818285they are only 50 dollars more... I was thinking it might become a thing later on in a few years.
>>541818559Graphics cards are like $6k now
>>541813088I bought a ps4 for $40 and couldn't be happier, I have a PC if I want to play anything current.
>>541818200Might be a server computer.

>>541813088Meanwhile I'm still playing my Xbox 360.
>>541818562because stupid people are buying it for GTA 6 which is what you are saying right now
>>541818532Very nice. Impressive. Waitfags btfo once again.
>>541818631Even with high spec PC the performance isn't that great. They being said I can't think of anything that's still PS3 exclusive besides drakengard 3 and maybe a few other weeb games I can't remember
>>541818686he said desktop
>>541813088everytime you use AI art, you vote for RAM prices to stay high> you voted for this
>>541818574Mine's DDR4 too. A single fucking RAM sticks of 32GB is like $100 now. >>541818651What do you mean by "Graphics cards"? I spent $300 on an RTX 5060 just last month.
>>541818651You can get an Intel Arc B580 for 300 USD
i just dropped 600 on new ram instead of buying a ps5 with gta 6 and im coping so fucking bad

You vill pay the gaymer cuck tax
Don't buy it. Get a cheap desktop on sale or a base model.>b-but muh new AAA trashAAA is shit. A toaster will let you play everything worth playing.
>>541818834I think he means any graphics card worth a shit.I mean a 5060 is fine for just about any 1080p scenario but if you're into VR your GPU basically has to render in 4K, 6K on some of the higher end headsets. I was running PCVR on a 4060 for a while which did the job in compute but was hitting VRAM starvation issues.
>>541818917>Get a cheap desktop on sale>2026

>>541818598I could just replace my 6900XT with a 5070 or 9700XT and be good through the life of Win10 IoT(2032) easily. Modern consoles are shit. The graphics setting are horrible and the math is done on their GPUs in a very inefficient manner. Having full control over your devices and processing can pull performance from your GPU for 8-10 years easily. I ran a 770 until 2022 on a Win 7 machine.
Literally go to your nearest pawn shop. They will have several for $350-425
>>541813250Enjoy Runescape Classic again.
>>541818651Ray tracing is incredibly gay and atleast a decade away from being anywhere near worth a shit. Just get an Radeon gpu like I did. >b-but I can upscale the resolution and everything looks like a blog but its 60fps @1440p and the RTX option being on means im enjoying myself Literally zero good games even have ray tracing. Its all tech demos for fags to take screenshots then uninstall the 200gb file and updoot on plebbit. Bu the time gaytracing is worth a shit we will be too busy trying to survive to care.

Unironically Boomers with senior cushy positions are the least likely to be replaced. They will just hire some Zoomer unpaid intern to teach them what AI is so that they can never ever hire another Zoomer.
>>541819283>>541819230The funny thing about when you zoomgoids say this shit is that you are tacitly implying that one's leisure time should be reduced later in age when they are less financially dependent on their parents. You see leisure as some kind of entitlement for simply existing.That's how I can tell you were raised by a single mother. You can say whatever you want but my father actually came home with the milk. And it manifests in every part of my life.
>>541818863I'll play with you Anzunyan
>>541813088I'm not buying itI'm just not.
>>541813088Stop reposting your shit thread.
>>541819230I already said I am not buying one you retarded 'stray-yee-on
>>541813250My storage alone is worth €5,200.
>>541818832Leftist upset noone will buy his poorly drawn porn anymore.
>>541818968You can get a rebuilt with a graphics card that will run anything actually worth playing for like $600-$700. It won't run muh AAAshit but all those games are terrible these days so it doesn't matter.
>>541819161VR is pretty fun if you're willing to put in the effort to play homebrew shit or mods for flat games. Thats not for everyone though. Playing through Doom 3 in VR turned that game from a 5 to an 8 for me. HL2 VR was fantastic as well.
>>541819875> i'm not crying, you're cryingwe can all enjoy high RAM-prices together
>>541820046>No youWhy would I be crying? I am not the one complaining about AI, you are.
>>541819642You're late to the party. I stopped after ps3 when they didnt allow you to play downloaded titles on ps4 without a subscription. They said it was a hardware limitation but anyone with have a brain knew it was a big fuck you / money grab.
>>541818708>2 TB NAS Lol. Lmfao even. Is that a typo? I don't think I own a single disk smaller than 12 TB.
>everyone here is too young to remember when basic MS-DOS workstations cost $3,999console gaming with its locked in ecosystems and payment is tough right now, but way better value than 80s and 90s costs considering inflation and the increase in hardware and software tech for locked gaming.PCs are way cheaper than they used to be in the 80s and 90s considering everything you are getting. I remember when MS-DOS workstations with Lotus 123 were thousands of dollars, with a bonus dot matrix printer.wage stagnation and demand don't help either, but all things considered a PC or console today is great value.
>>541820354>They said it was a hardware limitation but anyone with have a brain knew it was a big fuck you / money grab.I've never heard of counterfeit Playstations which run their system natively. and no doubt it's been tried.
>>541820144This. It’s an “enthusiast level” hobby, but if you’re white and have installed a mod before it shouldn’t be too hard to figure out. Team beef standalone homebrew apps on the quest are great, as is pcvr. Currently got about 50 hours in Microsoft flight simulator flying helicopters, couldn’t imagine trying to into depth perception on a regular monitor.Totally agree on doom 3 actually being good in vr. Regular doom in vr is amazing too, I can’t imagine going back to anything else for shooters now that I’ve experienced vr gun handling
>>541818435That's true. I gave some old ram and GPU away for a lad's first gaming PC recently. PC users are literal gods compared to console users. You can't build a PS5 with parts you left in the basement.
>>541819161a lot of desktop games got decent vr mods, its really fun, ofc its a hard time to get like AAA stuff but still its a goldmine thanks to moddersand vrchat for erp sex and yapping with anime girls>>541819471this
>>541813572sarrrr apply bonners to lizard sarr
>>541820354Last console I bought was a fucking xbox 360 brosef. Been PC masterrace for years.
>>541813088Lol, you can buy a laptop that stomps the ps5 pro for the same price.Console were supposed to be a cheaper alternative, why pay this price for a stupid box that only play games and it will be outdate soon?
>>541813984I got a 3000euro setup in may but the only games I have are space marine 2 and dune awakening and I have no idea what else to play and the two get boring. maybe 29 was too late to do this shit idk, when I played total war on my shitty laptop 10 years ago I had tons on fun
>>541813572Modern women are gutter trash.
>>541821054is that sandshitter wrong tho?
There aint no way imma be able to play GTA 6 without it...
>>541819230Thanks for the input kangaroo jockey
>>541813088kek I bought this prebuilt with a 5080 last year for the same price.
>>541820992wait a sec, so VR chat has mechanics that let you get naked and suck and fuck?
>>541813088This is why need to build the data centers now so that prices can come down once they are complete.
>>541823176It’s got motion tracking for your hands, and for your feet too with some additional sensors. I hate vrchat, it’s basically like 4chan or twitter but you communicate verbally, and personally that degree of separation is what makes interacting with strangers online tolerable. Vr chat specifically attracts a lot of furries and trannies, and other turbo weirdos that don’t really feel comfortable in their own skin in real life. Some people are cool, but the whole thing feels very icky and cringe to me.
>>541823588i googled it and saw something on xvideos with a dick basically going magnet into a mouth, very strange and guaranteed a disgusting freak is behind the cute anime girl avatar
>>541823005>circus thingy from that youtube showIts gay
>>541823005>>541823742Pomni, i just remembered
>>541815611Gaming on couch is abig console plus, also games running fine without need for system upgrades every so often. General computers and consoles both have their uses.
>>541823588I wish my vive pro wasn't so cumbersome. I get more use out of my quest 3. >>541823742Its the most important piece of media this decade.
>>541823846Why is it? It wasn't new or groundbreaking.
>>541822526He's absolutely not wrong and I agree with him. Vidya placates people and stops them from doing adult things. Society needs functional adults, don't like society? Look at yourselves for not being politically active enough to change things as well.
>>541823846what's a vive pro, vibrating prostate massager?
my old pc was so fucking good to me bros>built at the start of the 2010s>faithfully ran with no problems on windows 7 for over a decade>abruptly dies mere months before the RAM price fiasco even started>I could hear it say "im tired and must go boss, but trust me this is for the best and you will understand with time">build new great PC for almost nothing at the perfect timeive considered framing or displaying the gpu and boot drive like a loser
>>541823742Don’t worry she’s hidden in the corner now (until her Figma version arrives)
>>541813250I just spent 150k building a 1969 mustang with a 514 hemi.
>>541823794>Gaming on couch is abig console plusYou can play pc games on the couch>games running fine without need for system upgrades every so oftenIf that was the case we'd still be using ps1s nigger
>/pol/ is mainly depressed PC-fagsThe costs of being psy-opped by Valve on 4chan.org...
>>541817333Checked, the holy traditions are not negotiable.
lol I paid 700 dollars after tax and shipping for a pro a few years ago and felt ripped off It's probably because of GTA6
>>541813984You can build a APU system for a 1000$ and play CyberJew at 1080 p medium settings and no dips sub 30fps.
>>541824290HTC Vive Pro. Got it as an impulse buy on Black Friday 2026. Spent too much for not so much time given the setup involved.>>541813250PC parts are going to be like automobiles in Cuba.
