Like if I want the most up to date graphics card I'm looking at $1000. Plus i would need a decent CPU, RAM, the Motherboard, keyboard and mouse, harddrives, etc.

That all adds up to like $3000. I'd need a monitor, chair and a desk to put it. Is it really worth that much to be part of the pc race?

NVIDIA literally announced an up to date graphics card a few days ago for $499 that's either on par or better than the cards out right now. Releases next month.

My mind is an open book, do you find it entertaining? At least be original in your responses then.

i love how people always try to factor in random shit like desks and chairs into the cost of a PC but never have shit to say about couches or entertainment centers or whatever when it comes to consoles
You need electricity but then you also need a house! Then you have to pay for internet access too! It's cheaper to just not have a PC

Right? Honestly that's what a PC should be. Since the days of the Vic 20.

Anyway, Ya I just Hail Mary'ed it with just a PSU to see if I can revive my main rig.

Hey, at least PC gamers only have Steam and don't have to worry about exclusives like console owners...

People are quick to forget that a gaming pc...is also a pc. Any decent desktop will set you back $500

I still can't wrap my head around how a $500 card is supposed to match or outperform this one that's out right now. Literally costs almost $1500 MORE.
