        Right? My APU can run almost all games up to 2020 in 3k. Not high-fps but i’m not sensible to that.

        Except a few, like Valheim and Empyrion, which have 1 fps on the menu.
        Do they require some special instruction sets or something, that a APU can’t handle?

        Honestly, my PC at this point plays FFXIV and that’s basically it. And I’m OK with that.

            Microsoft tried that with TPM. Which you can bypass for the most part with Rufus and a clean install. Still some kernel anticheat games you can’t do so so easily.

            I’ve already switched over to Linux, just got one more system to migrate. So far 100% worth it to not deal with Microslop.

              What I am truly afraid of, is they somehow get ahold of Linux, and force slopware onto it, including that EoL bs. Keep offline devices as backup.

                Uh that can’t happen with Linux. The closest you can look at is Red Hat, which doesn’t affect distros from Debian or Arch.

        I agree. I recently swapped out my aging 2600x6core for a 5950x32core processor and upgraded from an 3070ti to a 5070 (well actually more of a sidegrade - my vram was simply too small). before this, my system had already a few years where there wasn’t much difference regarding gaming - In the current configuration and the glacial speed gaming developed i’d say i have a decade before upgrades are really needed.

      Same here, running my 3700X with a 3080.

      I should’ve pulled the trigger on the 9800X3D last year like I wanted, but thought it was just too expensive.

      Welp.
