You mean something like r/LowSodiumCyberpunk?

Missing No One Lives Forever (2). Those games were just fantastic.

Weird flex, but okay.

I’m not afraid to admit that I played the game a lot and that shit cost me weeks of my life. I’d usually watch MSNBC videos on the second screen while the other one was showing the clouds above LS.

The Ps5pro is overpriced, and for 200$ cheaper, you could buy a PC that will outperform it.

How would you know that?

Anivia on the other hand was only saying that for the same money or less as a Playstation 5 Pro, you can get more performance by spending your dollars on a computer instead of a console. This is correct.

I’d like to argue that you can’t get as much or more performance by spending the 700 dollars on a gaming PC. I’d be glad to be proven wrong when the first PS 5 Pro benchmarks are published, however.

What are you taking about? Your barebones configuration is a hundred dollars more than the standard PS5 years after its initial release. The PS 5 Pro (subject of your link) promises significantly more power than the original model and costs significantly more. You cannot compare that to your bare bones gaming PC. A gaming PC that promises way more bang than your 5600+6600 combo is significantly more expensive than the PS5 Pro.

Your hastily assembled list will maybe do 1080p60 in more recent games, severely limited by the GPU and its 8GB of VRAM. That was good when I got my 430 EUR Vega 56 back in 2017. Today? Not so great.

That’s a 100 dollars more than a PS5 Digital, though.

Where I live, the cheapest 3060 is 260€ (including 19% tax). A 4090 is almost two grand. That’s the equivalent of two of the upcoming PS5 Pros with a couple of games.

You’re right, a 4090 costs 2-3 consoles.

Let’s assume the 3060 costs 180 Dollars (no idea what those go for). Add 150 for a decent CPU, 40 for 16 GB of memory. Another 80 for a Mainboard for a total of 180+150+40+80=450 USD. You also need a case, a power supply and mass storage. Your math doesn’t check out, even with the humble specs those Dollars will buy you.

I’m not trying to sell you a console here, far from it. I’m just saying if you want a rig that outperforms a console, it will be in the 4-digits. A mid range GPU alone will be 400-500 nowadays.

A gaming GPU has cost as much as a console for a while now.

So a USB-C puch hole, like for smartphone cameras?

That’s what was initially rumoured. From what we know now, they could release (or at least be unveiled) as early as this year. Board partners are busy with RDNA 4, or so it is claimed. I’m pretty impatient after a good 7-year run with my watercooled Vega 56.

Edit: can’t find the source, maybe it’s wishful thinking.

The question is, when will those chips be announced and released? I have pre-ordered (against common sense) my copy of Kingdom Come: Deliverance II. I’d love to have a fresh card by then, but I’d probably go for a 7800/7900 in case the 8000-series release happens to take until we’ll into the first half of 2025.

Is it worth it spending money on more expensive nozzles? On my Ender 3 V2, I used Creality nozzles I ordered on AliExpress. Now that my S1 Pro is 9 months old (although rarely used), I wonder if it’s worth spending 10 Euros on a single brass nozzle made by Brozzl.

Edit: Creality is currently selling a 5-pack of the same size for 1€…

A platform similar to Steam. “Good Old Games” is the name and what it started out with, without any DRM. The catalogue is much larger nowadays, they have their own launcher like Steam, and there still is no DRM.
