The majority of indies and emulators. There are so many of them passing those doors, you're gonna have to specify your taste for any recs.

Should I upgrade to a 5080 if I'm still stuck on AM4? How much of a bottleneck is a 5800x3D and 32GBs of DDR4?

8gb is pretty fine for indies just look for em. Theres at least a few decent ones releasing each month and a gem every few months at least. Some i could name right off the bat would be.
>Look outside
>world of horror (gets a new big patch in march)
>The use of life
>Ninesols
>no, im not a human
>labyrinth of the demon king
>schedule 1(fun small game)
>dave the diver
>Gothic chronicles of myrtana(if u love western rpg gothic 1 and 2 are the best in the genre, despite their age)
Otherwise there is also emulation with so many games that will keep you busy for years. Some gems for me.
>FF7-12(excluding the shitty ff mmo, the mmos all suck)
>Shadow hearts 1(2 is also fine)
>Grandia 2(1 is also fine)
>DKC2 (hard as nails and unforgiving, but the music is pretty amazing)
>Baten Kaitos (both amazing, origins slighty worse due to battle system simplification)
>MH3/3U (still the best mh and worth playing solo)
>Crash games up to twinsanity (the 1-3 remake is good too)
>Ratchet&Clank ( all still decent games)
>Jak&dexter (varying in quality, the endboss in 2 is dumb and needs u to jumpshoot)
>Sly cooper(not as good as the other, but still nice to try)
>Obscure 1(2 is pretty bad)
>SH 1-3
>Resi 2/3/4(Only remake worth playing is 1)
There is just so many things to play even on a shit pcs. All of em still better than modern AAA/AA slop too mostly.

To add to it i also dont think AI will cripple PC prices for more than a year. The parts of the industry that are requiring ram/gpu heavily and buying it out are not profitable and just pass contracts around to each other and mostly created an insane bubble that will likely create a massive economic collapse when it bursts in prolly a year. Ai will still take over a lot of industries, especially automation, coding and animation, but 90% of the competition in the race will collapse.

No way. You need 64GB for that, and at an RTX 4090.

You need top hardware for it and it's still dogshit in the end. At the base it's still skyrim and skyrim is a terrible game with nothing good about it. No amount of mods will make it good. Even the total conversion mod enderal is gimped by using skyrim as a base.

I am still on windows 7, 8gb ram, a 1060 6gb and 500gb ssd
I don't need more
>>
>>728991645
you'd still get a significant performance boost at higher resolutions despite the bottleneck. are you hoping to swap it out later into new hardware? that might be years from now, and that gpu might not be high-end anymore.

>nigger played a single wrpg and calls it best
it aint even the best of the mediocre bethesda rpg, let alone the best wrpg. Also no one plays that pile of shit vanilla, outside complete tech illiterate bottomfeeder.

>the witcher games(they use gothic as a blueprint)
>ME 2
>DA origins
>FA 1/2/NV
just to name a few that are miles above the bethesda shovelware. Bethesda RPG just have no coherent story, decent immersive questlines or world and the combat in em was abyssmal 20 years ago (except FO3) and the VA is laughably horrible. Literally made for actual bottomfeeder that dont know better and played nothing else.

Also there are chip fabs being constructed all over the US right now, so the supply will definitely increase. I don't think it's a permanent situation, but the PC market will shrink considerably by then, which will benefit cloud services.

I've realized that the reason AI bullshit is shoved down your throat by microsoft, google and whoever else is just to get you used to using AI tools only to yank up the price when AI tools are the norms and force everyone that uses them to pay up.

Chat-gpt, dall-e, whatever big AI datacenter technology, they're all pushing for AI to be used in everything so that they can justify when they overcharge the cost of it's use.

the higher the resolution the less of a bottleneck your cpu will be, at 4k there is no bottleneck basically

Do you not remember about GPU prices and how that shit never went down when they realized whales will still buy it? Is your Gen Z brain too smoothed by tiktok or whatever shithole platform you came from?
