This is the future of the gaming industry and private computer ownership now that AI has priced the average person out of it.>paying monthly for cloud gaming with all the infinite restrictions and dogshit input lag it comes with>have to pay extra to not get ads>have to pay extra to not have a daily time limit>have to pay extra for higher resolutions>have to pay extra for higher framerates>have to pay extra to not wait in a queue (which DOES count towards your session limit!)>have to pay extra to use your entire CPU>have to pay extra for ray tracing>have to pay extra to play more than a whopping 100 hours a month>have to pay extra for higher quality audio>have to pay extra for DLSS>have to pay extra for input latency reduction (which does fucking nothing considering the amount of it already stacked on)This is it. Either the industry crashes, or we are entering the final stage of microtransaction nickle and diming hell.
what's the point of this spam? I don't get it

>>523874997This is a tractors and guns board, boy. Go buy some seeds and get them ready for spring planting.
You are mentally ill if you buy these newer GPUs immediately, first and foremoet you should be at the minimum following channels that repair these GPU's to get a good gauge on what GPU/brand is actually going to last for you.Because contrary to popular belief, these scamming jewy qnd chinky bastards that make these GPUs do not have your best interests in mind.Also you don't need a 4080 or anything expensive to comfortably game at 1080p or 1440p, just food for thought.Chatgpt/grok and PCPARTPICKER are your friend
nvidia doesnt have that luxury anymore. chinese are catching up. they'll do what they always do. dump their shit on market below cost with gov subsidy.
>>523875677Fucking retards all of you.With my Windows XP i can play anything from 1997 to 2015-ish with the right parts.Sad fools who think "superior hardware" is a net positive for gaming.im not a steamfag, so at least i cant relate with (you) redditor scum
I have a RetroTink 4K and all the modded consoles I need to play free games until I croak. Steamsloppers BTFO.
>>523875738Even if chinks produce good hardware, it won't be worth jackshit without software support from western developers. And they need support on OS level, API level, engine level and game dev level.
>>523876033My Philips crt 29" just died recently, but i have one more crt left.im not buying upscallers from suspicious websites, just so you can play these games on a modern screen.Just get an old tv.
What do you guys think of this >>523874375
>>523874997I don care about your stupid gayms.I want a PC for local PERSONAL COMPUTING, you fucking AI fags. Unlike the bunch of you talentless fucks, I enjoy getting my hands dirty with 3D, physics simulation and rendering stuff. Thanks for ruining so many hobbies people had with this bullshit slop.everyone is generating and making the prices for hardware components skyrocket. Fuck you, faggots
>>523874997Steam released data that new games only made up 13% of games played in 2025.
>>523876223It's based. But das can't handle the truth.
>>523876178Retrotinks aren't suspicious. They're also not cheap. But I also agree with you, if you have a decent CRT use that. Nothing beats a CRT for anything before the PS3.
>>523874997dang it, I just bought a 5080
>>523875169He cant, your not allowed to talk about Vidya or anything related
>>523876062Yeah having competitors now isn't as simple as people believe, even Intel have trouble and that's the only alternative cope i see for the future at the moment. Though i do see AMD release good cards here and there that aren't complete scams. Nvidia are just full-on kikery though, they really don't even hide it from normalfags anymore.
>>523876259+1
NYOOOO NOT MY MANCHILD TOYS!!!!!
>>523875884I mean i do agree with the premise but i do enjoy steam games here and there, most new stuff is just complete retard slop
Quite literally every single videogame worth playing has 1. already been made 2. can be emulated using a 1000 series
>>523874997we will have a resurgence of old retro multiplayer games? great
