| Topic | I'm buying a PS4 because I can't afford a PC. |
| TheNeckbeard 03/02/18 2:27:28 AM #106: | In this current market if you want to game and can't wait then you made a good choice. In the PC market with memory and video cards being through the roof due to the mining craze and memory shortage, and with a sign that PSU prices also on the rise (for the better ones) it's so overly expensive to build a PC right now If you are building your own PC the best thing to do currently is build a upgradable Ryzen APU build using the integrated graphics for now and buying a GPU later. Since really buying a new GPU now means you have no proper understanding of money and are willing to just toss it away to price gougers or buying a bundle/prebuilt since the parts are generally priced at their intended MSRP when you do it that way or you are getting a discount due to buying bundled parts. I got lucky in that I built my current rig in 2016 right before all this mining craze happened. I got my RX 480 on release day for $260 and it's now like 500 (such bs) and my ram for like 50 bucks (now its 150) and to be honest i had a roommate/friend at the time who wasted money all the time (he'd be a person that would buy a GPU right now) and I was given my monitors and keyboard, speakers, headphones for free after he just didn't want them anymore! So I made out big time. --- ... Copied to Clipboard! |
