But still makes you waste alot of your time.

Learning something new about technology is not a waste of time.

steam is the best thing since buffalo sauce.

Make sure you have thousands of dollars available as there is a new graphics card released every month.

dangert125341d ago

Thats silly they don't expect you to by a new one everymonth thats like saying theres a new smartphone out every month lol

narutogameking5341d ago

If you want to have the best out there you'll have to upgrade multiple times a year. This costs thousands of dollars.

I can buy a console and have it last me 6+ years until I need to upgrade.

dangert125341d ago

but a console will not have the best out there nor will your rig if you don't keep upgrading but if you get the best possible at the time like the ps3/xbox had when they came out then it will be able to run games for quiet a while without an upgrade i can imagine

Kakkoii5341d ago

You should really stop exaggerating for the purpose of making it look like you have an actual point.

New GPU series come out every 6-8 months now. And only every second series is usually worth upgrading to, because the one after is usually just a refresh of the same chip design that's been optimized a bit. And sometimes the series after that is still a refresh also and then finally a new architecture that's worth upgrading too.

their hasn't been a new graphics card released in over 3 months when Nvidia released their GTX560 and AMD released their HD6790

If you knew what you were talking about you would realize they release the cards at different price point intervals.

They release:

1. Entry Level
2. Mid range
3. Enthusiast Level
4. HTPC Level
5. God Almighty Level
6. then refreshes and specialty cards

sometimes not in this exact order but last Gen was pretty much in this order. So I'm an Enthusiast level gamer so why would i need to buy a new card every month. I bought 2 cards day 1 and I don't need to buy any more until DX12 comes out and that's ONLY if i want DX12 features.

So your statement is completely FALSE and only verifies that you know NOTHING about PC Gaming!!

But at least now you know............

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing3d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit3d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing3d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster923d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
