if you told us a year ago buck was dropping more consistently than hackle you would’ve been downvoted by the thousands

there are a lot of misconceptions perpetuated by console glazers but the biggest in my opinion are that “pc‘s become obsolete extremely fast and consoles are better because they always play games.” if you dig deeper you quickly realize that all these people either knew someone who just went to costco or best buy and bought the first pc they saw or did the buying themselves and then complain in 2 years when it can’t run games.

wanna know why it can’t run games? because you did no research, saw “i9” on the box and said “wow! this computer must be insanely powerful if it has an i9” (yes, during my initial search for a pc a costco employee genuinely tried to convince my dad to convince me to spend $1400 on an ibuyproblems PC with an i9 11900k and a 4060 on the basis that ”it has an i9 which is the fastest processor“). i also have met MULTIPLE people in real life who genuinely believed that a 4060 was stronger than a 3090 because the number was bigger.

basically what i’m saying is the reason people think PCs need to be constantly upgraded is because they bought a $1400 pc with a gpu bottleneck and 8gb of vram or knew someone who did and acted surprised when it could hardly play their games on high settings.

PC gaming doesn’t have to be constantly upgraded. your pc can last for years if you optimize price to performance. your 5070 doesn’t need a 7800X3D for the love of god. and your 7800X3D doesn’t need an aio. and you definitely need to prioritize things other than a pink-taxed fishtank with a screen on it if your planned gpu has 12gb….

sometimes when i turn my pc off and on i find that the speed has gone from 6000 to 4800 meaning EXPO disabled itself, this is super annoying and if anyone knows a fix it would be greatly appreciated (AM5 MSI)
