Why?? Just get something a few years old, it'll do the same thing anyway

Bethesda games aren't gonna run themselves

Why play expensive games when you can get addicted to Balatro
-
Me but just playing free to play games. lol
I can't give up the AAA quality. Hell I want a more powerful GPU just to push it

I feel like kinda the main reasons to pick up a latest gen gpu nowadays are energy efficiency and a warranty (although 5000 series doesn't look all that energy efficient, we'll see i guess)
otherwise you can definitely get something better on ebay for cheaper
but if you live somewhere where energy is expensive, the difference might be significant. 500w is kinda a lot lol, any difference in performance/watt will add up
prices are going to drop when the new gpus come out and people need to get rid of their old ones, but currently with a little bit of looking i could find a 'buy it now' 7900 xt for $640, a 3090 for $775, and a 3090 ti for $850
honestly these aren't great deals you could probably find better ones

1000$ PC? No shit you need to play 2D indie games!
-
DCSS in the browser requires top of the line graphics cards.
-
I don't see how a gaming only pc has $3800 of non-gpu costs. There has to be a threadripper equivalent cpu and/or a shit ton of storage/ram on there.

The cure is one of the jokers. Just keep playing Balatro, you're close to finding a way to quit.

My desktop is literally only used for gaming (I have a separate PC for everything else) and I spent probably 3-4k on it.
Buy a lot of high end NVMe storage and I could easily see it costing 5k.
-
Motherboards aren't cheap, nor is the top of the line CPUs. The 7950x3D is still $600 on amazon. X670e boards start at like $200 and go up over $500 easily. If you just say fuck it and buy the best you can easily hit that number, especially if you throw in some high end storage drives.
I'm looking to replace my CPU, mobo and ram and I'm looking at at least $1200 for that.

Used graphics card prices aren't that much better than new.
The 4090 still has a VRAM advantage over the 5080 so it's probably going to continue to hold it's value pretty well. Especially since there's a massive voice in pricing between the $1k 5080 and the $2k 5090.
Unless the 24gb ARC GPU comes out (or AI crashes) I see the 4090 just not depreciating a substantial amount. And that's the only option that would compare to the 5080 since AMD isn't even trying to make high end.

I'm happy with my legion go, it can handle most aaa games pretty well. And if I want to upgrade later on, I'll get an eGpu. Modular gaming system ftw

Did Starfield become a good game?

I’ll always upvote a Chaeyoung meme
