i wish i could remember how i got it to run on apple silicon last time because i can’t do it now

I bought a 3070 for far more than I should’ve back when that was new, and I don’t plan to make that mistake twice. This GPU is likely going to be staying in this PC til it croaks. Never felt the need for anything more powerful anyway, it runs everything I need it to on high settings.

I mean I play at 1440p and I think it’s fine… Well it’s 3440x1440, problem is I can still see the pixels, and my desk is quite deep. Do I NEED 4k? No. Would I prefer if I had it? Hell yes, but not enough to spend huge amount of money that are damaging to an already unrealistic market.

Try Bazzite. Easy, beginner friendly, but very God hardware support and up to date.

I am tired of be treated like a fool. No more money for them.

Jesus christ man. I thought I was slumming it with a 3070.

Bought a 5700xt on release for £400, ran that til last year when the 7900gre released in the UK. Can’t remember what I paid but it was a lot less than the flagship 7900 and I forsee lasting many years as I have no desire to go above 2K.

AMD GPUs have been pretty great value compared to nvidia recently as long as you’re not tying your self worth to your average FPS figures.

Heck yes, made more sense to buy a steam deck than upgrade my PC.

I had lost all interest in games for a while. Desktop just ended up with me tinkering in the homelab. Steam deck has been so great to fall in love with gaming again.

That was a beautiful card, bought to use with vr, my gf is still rockin that system

I stopped maintaining a AAA-capable rig in 2016. I’ve been playing indies since and haven’t felt left out whatsoever.

Does it really help gameplay on the average monitor? If it is a fast paced game Im not even paying attention to pixels

hahahahahahahaha.

rx580

Same I got a 3080 12G a few months after release for $1k from EVGA and it’s the most I’ve ever spent on a computer part. Next upgrade is def gonna be in the 600-700 range, not making that mistake again.

It’s just because I’m not impressed, like the raster performance bump for 1440p was just not worth the price jump at all. On top of that they have manufacturing issues and issues with their stupid 12 pin connector? And all the shit on the business side not providing drivers to reviewers etc. Fuuucccckk all that man. I’m waiting until AMD gets a little better with ray tracing and switching to team red.

I bought my most expensive dream machine last year (when the RTX-4090 was still the best) and I am proud of it. I hope it’ll be my right for at least 10 years.

But it was expensive.

I’m still surviving on my RX580 4GB. Limping along these days, but no way I can justify the price of a new GPU.

Same, but the 8GB edition.
UE5 runs like a tragedy

Indies are great. I can play AAA titles but don’t really ever… It seems like that is where the folks with the most creativity are focusing their energy anyways.

R9 380x does more than I need it too.
