Love this video. Please do more PC stuff cause I’m a recent PC gamer and I would to learn about what things I can customise with software and hardware. 👍

[@GamersCoreUK]

I'm new to PC too got one to start my channel with and it's a confusing world. Luckily for me in an engineer for a tech comany in my day job so got up to speed fast. I was thinking of maybe doing a beginners guide to PC gaming with all the things I've found, hints and tips etc since switching.

[@JeandreKoen-wi9hs]

For modding there is also Mod Organizer 2. I prefer this as it keeps your game files clean and separate from mods. It also allows multiple other tool integrations. But overall I am so happy to see guys are bringing in a whole different topic on this channel.

[@SergioR00]

Irfanview is a must: lightweight image viewer. Outside of Photoshop and Painter formats, I have yet to come across an common and kinda-common image format it can't handle

[@Anon20855]

Or it's just open source don't be so thickskulled

[@humanyoutubeuser]

what a reddit take. Not every piece of free software is exploiting you. For starters you can just review open source code if you're a software dev and the repo is small enough Secondly just because you're being used as an audience to advertise to, it means both the consumer and developer wins. You get useful software, the Dev gets advertising revenue. Lastly, the software is free. Just don't use it if you don't want to be advertised at and stop whinging

[@estp23010]

If that’s the case, I really don’t know how linux exploits you.

Usefull stuff here. I'm such a huge fan of Good Old Games, it's my default place when buying new games. I love to know that I'm in control of the files to the point where if I want to let a friend play something I own, I can do that with GOGs DRM free installers.
