Topic	The entire world of PC gaming rigs is a big scam, right?
UnsteadyOwl 02/20/24 4:46:54 PM #76:	streamofthesky posted... Yeah. I want to move to PC gaming b/c Sony went to shit (Xbox always was) and Nintendo doesn't get / can't handle lots of games. I don't give a single flying fuck about super high resolution or high FPS (steady 30 or 60 is fine), I don't play resource hog AAA western games for the most part... I just want something that will play games and not need to be replaced for 8-10 years. But the "community" is geared towards "oh, with this rig you can do all these neat lighting effects...." like dude, I don't fucking care. I'm kind of in the same boat. I like Nintendo's games and I like my Switch so I'm not looking to give up console gaming but I've been looking at what I want to do for games that Nintendo doesn't get. There's so little that's exclusive to PlayStation or Xbox anymore that I was thinking a gaming PC might be a better way to go if it's not too expensive. That's why I was asking about prices. Like you, I really don't care about having the best possible performance, I would just want games to be decently playable. So I really wouldn't want to spend a lot on a PC but I also don't want to get stuck with cheap components that are going to be prone to breaking or have to keep upgrading every year or two just to meet minimum requirements for new games. --- "It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose.
