>>729746812Everyone here already wants gaming to die
Implying there is any need for anyone to upgrade.Old games are better in all ways that really matter graphics fags can go die in a gutter for all i care.
>>729746812Polniggers arent gamers so they dont care
>>729747462>And there are 4 reposts of the same twitter screencap alreadyYou don't say.Kill yourself.
>>729746195I don't need more
>>729747462>Cool it, cumskins.Incredibly based anon gaming is for everyone

>>729748312is coffee good for you?
>>729747172>Old games are better in all ways that really matterThey aren't, there's a lot of good new games too. That said, you're right that there is no need to upgrade. Most of new good games can be played without a problem on 10 year old PCs.
>>729746195>Be me>Get 1080ti right before the launch of 20xx series, avoiding the early rtx adopter deceased. 1080ti cards completely gone from shelves a month later.>Upgraded to a new high end pc together with a 4090, avoiding the 50xx series with all the problems.>Can see the prices of my parts go up, making the same build several hundred dollars more expensive a couple of months laterAll in all I feel pretty lucky with my build, it wouldn't surprise me if my pc suddenly expl
>>729748398You took that. or did you really thing my pic was from a proper steam account.But yeah all of the "big" releases that need newer cards have been total flops or just not worth it otherwise. I've moved mostly to indies at this point, and my backlog isn't gonna play itself.
>>729746195I am outraged! (I have not even thought about upgrading for years)
>>729746812*yawn*get a job, hippie
>You're literally fucked>Games still come out for ps4>The ones that don't aren't difficult to run anyways>The ones that are are usually unoptimized pieces of shit like Wilds.It sucks but I'll wait it out. Worst come worst, I can just go through my backlog.
>>729746195>for ChristmasI bought a whole new PC with a 5090 back in April. I use it to play games that I could play comfortably on the PC that I was using a decade ago. I also use it for AI-coomer purposes.>>729746812Threadly reminder that you lost, and you will always lose.
>>729746812>not even ten posts>immediate gcj seething
going to run my 4070ti and 32 gigs ddr4 into the ground then read books the rest of my life
>>729746812Trump has nothing to do with it. If anything, it's because of him more East Chinese AKA Taiwan investments are being made in American chip manufacuring plants.
>>729746195>New rig.>New parts.People here act as if this is their first and last chance to build a good computer.Chill out fags.
>>729746195I have a Steam Deck. If it can't run a game, it's always a slop that's not worth playing.If there's anyting good about AI bubble, it has a chance to kill the AAA industry.
>>729746195Got a 5070 and a 5080, 64 and 128 gigs of ram respectively just before it all went to shit.
>>729746195Nintendo and Valve won, Sony and Microsoft lost
>>729746195>Also consolefags too.Not Nintendo.
This is a good thing.
>>729746195I am honestly a bit surprised that scalpers haven't started scalping GPUs. Prices are going to fucking explode due to the DRAM/VRAM crisis alone.
>>729755116
>>729755767>Waaah I can't consoom
>>729746195I bought a new laptop literally a week before prices went upreally dodged a bullet
You motherfuckers better stop complaining and start buying shit off FB Marketplace. There are a billion PS5's under $400 listed and gaming PC's at decent prices. I saw a PC with a 5080 listed at $2000. If you are actually serious about getting a PC, then fucking buy one.
>>729747462>being in Europe means you are white>VPNs dont existChrist you shitskins are retarded
>>729746812You lost lmao
>>729755116This is like an IQ test. If you find someone who believes it, you know they're a fucking moron. Case in point: Joe Rogan believes it. Quite often, strong men have created hard times, quite often good times have created great men.I mean fuck, by this logic Jews and Niggers are currently the best men, because in recent history they've had the hardest times. But somehow I think that's not what the creator of this images wants to express..
>>729746812You're aware this has nothing to do with Trump and everything to do with AI right? You deranged faggot.
>>729756383Israel is one of the strongest countries in the world now. So it holds true.
>>729746195Bet Nintendo doesn't sound so bad now, does it.
>>729756383I accept the boomers' admission that they are shit and created hard times
>>729746195SECOND TRUMP GOVERNMENT MAKES JOE PEDO BIDEN LOOK LIKE A GENIUS
>>729756701But anon you got it wrong. If we follow this logic then: Hitler must have been a weak man, because he created hard times. Hitlers Hard time, made the Jews into strong men. But Israel isn't creating good times. Israel is once again creating bad times. So it falls apart! They need to create good times!
>>729756925Once Gaza is gone good times will happen.
>>729756925>because he created hard times.learn about what happened between hitler taking power and ww2
>>729746195I got a 4090 when it released, it was expensive back then too but it's a great card and I'm glad I got it. I'm debating whether I should get a 9070XT to replace a 3080 Ti in a secondary PC I have, haven't pulled the trigger on that one yet.
>>729746195Don't worry you can still buy Intel.
>>729757180Can't wait to jump from Njewia to Intelaviv.Save us China. I'm ready for the rice fields.
>>729756991Yeah, because the hard times will make good men! But why didn't the last strong men create good times?>>729757078>No, you see, it doesn't count because of uuhm, factors!Why die on this hill? The "hard times" meme is retarded, and it's the culture war equivalent of "live, laugh, love". It's a nice sounding soundbite that ultimately means nothing, and even worse than "live, laugh, love" it doesn't hold up to any sort of scrutiny.
>>729757308you're getting spastic over some wisdom about how times affect people and their societyrelax
>>729746195Who cares? Name a single game worth playing that requires new hardware.
Contemplating getting a 9070 xt because I'm scared my 5090 will melt eventually and I'll be fucked out of a pc.
>>729756238Assuming they're not scamming you
>>729757443I'm not getting spastic over it. I'm pointing out that the wisdom is not actually wisdom, but in fact: Retarded.
>>729756238Anon, waitfags don't have money, that's why they are waitfags.
>source is a twitter account from indiauh huh
>>729757647>I'm not getting spastic over it.you areretards can't recognize wisdom and because you have low cognition you're getting angry irrationally
>>729758007>Wisdom is when lies.have 5ex
>>729757624Easy, buy from only white people
>>729756925Israel is absolutely working on creating good times by fucking up every nearby terrorist group and Iran after October 7th (which was a case of hard times because weak men trusted muslims to not act retarded).And Hitler created bad times for Europe, which turned them into strong men, but eventually overcompensation caused by the worst war in human history turned them into a nation of self-destructive cucks.
>>729758375>the most blue pilled jew take of all time
>>729756701As long as the US is giving them tons of money and weapons.
>Post yfw gaming is finally deadDEHEHEHEHEH
A potential silver lining is that devs will start optimizing their games better. But even I know that's a pipe dream.
>>729746195not my problem. still playing Skyrim on my switch
>>729754260US made chips will be 20 times more expensive than Taiwanese. Get ready for $10k mid range cards.
If you could afford $2000, you can afford $5000.
>>729746195Only Shitendo pedos are fucked, Nvidia raped Jewtendo KWABOTY
>>729747462You think Europe is white... LMAOOOOOO
>>729746195OMG, what will I do? Show me a game that worth playing and you need the newest hardware for it.
>>729758623AI will do all the optimization
>>729758694there will be more chips on the market though. Theyre not going to just exponentially raise prices each year
>>729746195I got sick on Christmas and my bank account is frozen and my new card literally just came in so I'm basically fucked. I can't go and buy a new GPU second hand this whole time.
>>729746195Wins
>>729746195>if you're a poorYou forgot that part>>729746812sar the usa is the most important sarwe are the kindly needful only country sarmy apologies for your yank education
>>729746812What is this "right winger" American?
>>729758915>Theyre not going to just exponentially raise prices each yearwhy not?Nvidia already did it before AI and now AI is just an excuse for them to go full greed mode. They're reporting record profits at the expense of raising prices on consumers. They won't stop.The alternative isn't the video game industry finding a solution, it's video games dying and people going outside again. Or subscription based gaming services like Nvidia has been pushing for(and probably their actual end goal with this price gouging).If vidya is your hobby there is literally no upside to the current AI bubble.
>>729759157>If vidya is your hobby there is literally no upside to the current AI bubble.AI rendering and AI making it easier to make gamesare you drunk?
>>729758375
>>729757146FWIW I have a 9070XT that's working well for me, had some issues at first but solved them in the meantime>in 1 or 2 games the video driver would randomly crash occasionally>tried using the DXVK libraries on those games after getting a suggestion for it, to translate the rendering to Vulkan instead of rendering straight on DirectX>never had crashes again, some games even improved performanceAs I should, I'm blaming micro$hit for it instead
>>729746195I upgraded late '24 so I'm good but my dumbass brother never moved on it despite me warning him multiple times over 2025.
>>729759431>AI making it easier to make gamesI will never play a game made using AIIf you used AI you didn't make a game faggot
>>729758623They'll be forced to if they want to survive. Normalfags aren't going to move to cloud streaming, they'll just outright stop gaming altogether.
>>729759860*yawn* Common reddit opinion
>>729759860>I will never play a game made using AIyou already have
>>729759946You think? They started to pay for the privilege of online multiplayer because their masters knew they'd pay for it, slap they're chosen companies brand on a online streaming service and they'll probably swarm to it.>It's so convenient! I don't need a disc or have to download anything!>At $$ it's a steal!>It's the future!Same shit as people who stream viewed media, they're lazy bastards the lot of them.
>>729760581If they have swarm to it all this time, they're not going to, they will fuck off and get a life. Gaming is moving to Nintendo and Steam
>>729761070*haven't
The only thing I'm scared is GPU or ram failing, otherwise I'm good without upgrading for a while.
You can still get a 5070 right now on Newegg for like $550. Which should be fine enough for most things assuming you are fine not always having max settings or 4k 60fps on whatever the absolute most taxing games possible would be for the next few years. The ps5 is equivalent to about a 2070 so that is where a lot of specs are going to sit for a while as the standard. PS6 would be out in a few more years which would.. probably be similar to a 5070 or 5070ti realistically. Maybe 5080.The dudes getting rawdogged are ones who wanted an AI gen card with a high spec 5090.
