      If you have working hardware, stretch it.

      The more people participate in these markets, the more corporate gets positive feedback.

      I get that their core business shifted to data center but how much AI slop does the world need it lol

      We already mined all the crypto 🐸

        Games on medium settings from eight years ago still look amazing in my opinion. Plus, sticking to the older hardware is great way to finally play those games that you bought because they were on sale for $3 that you never even installed. (Don’t we all have a few dozen of those?)

        Still rocking with a 970. I don’t play enough games that it would matter, and medium/high settings still run 1080p/60fps most of the time since only predatory AAA games use that high of graphics.

          Also me with a 1070. I have to take of the door of my computer if I want to play games and not lag (that much) because it can easily get up to ~90C with it on. ;-;

          I’m not sure I’ll ever upgrade my 3080 until it dies. Minecraft will run just fine and that’s most of my gaming time.
