[@rockyneely749]

i cant wait until the "graphics race" is over and the next best thing is just optimizing their games to the absolute max

[@RandomFandomOfficial]

The gaming industry doesn't realize how good optimization is important. Good optimization makes games accessible to more customers. Good optimization extends the usable life of hardware, saving the environment from e-waste. Good optimization allows for newer, smaller devices to also get better performance and battery life (Steam Deck anyone?).

[@Gragas339]

@@rockyneely749 yeah, a lot of games do the basic stuffs only, you can optimise meshes, the game will look the same but have way less polygones and shit to be calculated by ur pc, skyrim modders know this a lot they optimise the entire game meshes, there is a lot of others optimisations possibles for games creators too

I spent £600 on my PC. It has 64gb RAM DDR4, Ryzen 7 5700X 8-Core, Radeon RX 6700XT 12GB VRAM and 3TB SSD. I bought it from a woman whose husband cheated so she was divorcing and had no idea what it was actually worth. I had informed her but she was still happy to sell it for £600 just to "Be rid of him".

I've been doing computer optimization for half my life, and after trying to bring the most bottom of the barrel laptops to desktops back to life, most of the time the main fix is a decent gpu even if you have a super old intel cpu, although I did get games like fortnite, stalcraft, minecraft, roblox, and league to work with a i7-810 paired with a gt 520 and managed 40-60~ this is great content to see, pushing limits of old tech :) best advice for people that want to go budget, just buy a optiplex 7050 for $160 off ebay and a 1080ti for $180 and you'll be able to run most games, and if you're truly down bad, just get a gtx 750 with a i7-870

[@lecctron]

Yes i agree ! This cpu is much faster than i expected and i might give it a better gpu to work with 😂

[@Fynancial]

@@lecctron have you also tried using a custom OS on this pc like revios, ggos, or atlas os? if not I still have a copy of ggos in a Google drive I can give you, imo I believe it's truly the most barebones version of windows 10 I've used

To avoid gamer burnout you need to be open to experiencing all types of games. Or maybe just give it a little push and try to hit the play button, maybe what you're doing is simply procastinating.

Now, more than ever before, there's an incredibly wide range of performance that's viable for modern use-cases. Many people don't even wanna play new AAA games. In that case, you can do just fine with something that'd be mid-range in 2013. Me, I've got an i5-4690K, 24 gigs of DDR3, and a GTX 1080. I've underclocked the GPU because I never use it to its full potential anyway, even with my 4K main monitor.

[@XuroX.]

Gtx 1080 did not come out in 2013..... and at the time, a 1080 also would have been considering high end, not mid range. 1080 was released 2016
