Especially considering its not doing anything a PC can’t do (as far as I know).

It’s a PC. Why wouldn’t it do anything a PC can’t do.

That being said, it does have the connections to wake the machine and your TV by acticating a connected Steam Controller

I believe that’s due to whatever ad services the creators use

It’s based on IP, so if you use a VPN when you download episodes the commercials will be based on where your server is located

Mmmm, Nutella

In much of the US, they’re a native species that’s getting wiped out by invasive Asian Lady Beetles. They fill a similar niche, but birds don’t like to eat them due to them having smelly secretions as a defense mechanism, unlike native ladybugs

Damn, this sounds even more epic than Oppossum in the Afterlife but with the same chaotic energy

Folding@Home already existed and does the same thing

It’s left ambiguous about whether he’s evil or just ignorant

There’s an interview where Sam Altmann claims that AI will destroy the worl, but will create “awesome tools” before that. Almost a 1:1 copy of the meme

They intentionally expose themselves to water and air pollution to make themselves more toxic to eat

big ole snitties

When the comment is funnier than the post

Most of the time I think getting used stuff is worth it, but you do have to be extra discerning. It helps if you have experience buying used and have developed a sense of when you’re getting a good deal and when you’re getting scammed.

I’ve bought about 3-4 computer parts over EBay, and only got burned once: an old $25 SAS card that ended was listed as the wrong model and didn’t work for my use case. The model that’s recommended is usually around $75, so it was one of those “too good to be true” kind of deals. Though I complained to the seller and got a refund.

If you buy over Craigslist or Facebook and arrange an in-person pickup, you can ask to have them power on the system to confirm everything is working before buying.

I personally don’t trust used storage, particularly hard drives, since it’s hard to completely erase what’s on them and you have no idea what’s on there. My policy is to always buy storage either new or manufacturer refurbished.

Also, if you’re looking at 1080p 60fps, most new PC’s will handle that fairly well

Slightly lower ram speeds, which might result in slightly slower load times, but I doubt you’d notice it.

The minimum amount of ram you can find on a single stick is lowered from 16gb > 8gb, which gives you the option of a 2 x 8gb kit for a total of 16gb total in dual channel. You always want dual channel (aka sticks in some multiple of 2) since it increases bandwidth. You can still get 2 x16gb kits for a total of 32gb in DDR4 if you need it, but you at least have the option for less. And if you get a 4 slot motherboard you can start with a 2x8gb and buy a second kit later.

And new production of DDR4 hardware is starting to ramp up to help get around the prices od DDR5. AMD is about to rerelease the Ryzen 5800X3D, which is the top gaming CPU for DDR4.

If it helps, here’s my current system:

• CPU - Ryzen 5800X (not 3D)
• RAM - 32gb DDR4
• GPU - Radeon RX 9070XT

I play on a 1440p 144hz monitor and while not everything runs at max frames, I don’t recall anything going below 60fps. That being said, I don’t have or play BL4.

I’m happy with my system, but it might not fit your exact use case. I just wanted to let you know about potential options that might work for you. Always check the requirements for the specific games you want to run.

Nice

This meme officially needs to die

Nearly $4k for a build with a 70-class card? Dude, you’re getting ripped off.

Try building a DDR4 system to save on ram and use that to buy a better graphics card. Or get a Radeon RX 9070XT for a lower price.

Tbf, BL4 is that demanding because Gearbox can’t optimize for shit

They’ve also recently added a banner that takes up half of your screen if you go on their site without signing in.

The decision boggles my mind since a lot of Reddit’s appeal to the layperson is that you can just go get answers on there. Or you used to be able to
