The cheap way to build a decent pc is to build a mediocre pc from random old parts, and then very slowly upgrade it.

Yeah but every time I upgrade, it’s mainboard, CPU and memory because it makes no sense to only replace one of it. And that’s already 1/3 - 1/2 of the price
literally what I’m doing… sadly this comes at a cost, because the imbalance that a i5 7400 brings when combined with 24 gb ram and a good AMD gpu is a lot
My tablet screen is filthy
Fucking John Cena. Everytime, he takes it all
Two years later everything is so much cheaper too (except that moment when GPUs went crazy expensive).
I have the impression that soon “any” pc will be totally okay for almost any workload, if it isn’t already.
16GB of RAM, 512GB/1TB of SSD and a hexacore is like cheap nowadays…
‘any pc’ is definitely not good enough. Minimum required specs will just keep rising and rising.I think even stuff like Fifa 23 requires at least an 1060 to run at the bare minimum. In 5-10 years you need a 30 or 40 series card to run games at minimum specs
Only for gaming. Everything else needs basically nothing.
Yeah true gaming seems to be a never ending requirement for more power.

It’s like the interaction between college tuition and the amount lenders will distribute in student loans.
Lenders: “Oh, college is more expensive now…I guess we should increase our borrowing limits for students…”
Colleges: “Oh look, lenders are increasing borrowing limits! I guess that means we can increase tuition!”
Missing the dollar that fell into the couch. It may be hard to find but it is saved!
It’s not only saved, it’s invested. “I put it into the couch” sounds like an investment hehe
I will assume the savings have gone by being used to buy that PC
