what's with the obsession with everything 60fps 1080p? a lot of folks think it's a dealdreaker if a game ain't running 60 fps :dahell: c'mon now
So its PC gamers obsessed with framerates now? Are you just going to casually ignore all the Sony threads bragging about this nonsense for the past 3 years?

In reality, PC gamers have been enjoying 1080p, 60fps for damn near 10 years. We on that 4K, 3D, and soon VR wave in PC land breh.

Catch up if you can.

Is it true that PC gamers sell plasma for new monitors?

Nope. I sell whatever I find at Goodwill or other thrift stores to buy bigger TVs for my gaming PC. Or like I just did this past weekend, sell the i5 2500k, traded in 2 old laptops to Best Buy for $100 in gift cards, and then bought a i5 6500 / Z170board without coming out of pocket for anything but $32 DDR4 RAM...

My point is don't try to shyt on PC gaming because a few days of my time (and very little money) I can easily make some flips and upgrade the whole system (minus my gpu this go around (r290, don't need upgrade)). And yes, I'm more of a console gamer but I get much more use out the PC than I do with my X1, Wii U, or PS4, and it's actually cheaper than consoles in the long run

Console gaming has always been competitive but this generation of gamers is :scust: Very few people bought a SNES over genesis because of the sound or a PSN over a Saturn for the graphics.


It use to be about the games, now its about being a cool kid and not feelings left out.

This generation care's way less about if a game is fun or not 1st and way more about if it is 60fps/ 1080p, if other people like it and then whatever else.


So I'd say yes, that use to be the PC gamers. Now PC gamers have the Best systems to play games like DOTA, and old school games and indie games.

60fps feels better for action/racing/fighting games. 30fps locked should be the base standard. People are right to be unsatisfied with performances of games that run at 25-30fps constantly like Witcher 3 and Fallout 4.
