Well, like some, I am still on the 10xx series (1060 3gb 🤣🥲) and starting to look to the futur full system upgrade for a Rx79xx or 78xx when out. Targeting Black Friday sale jump
I would be curious to know if many others are on a refresh cycle up to 4-5years
(Need to check how to create a poll in Lemmy)
I guess I'm on the 7-10 year cycle. I just upgraded from a GTX 1050 (non-Ti) and .an i5-4570. Played almost everything I wanted to play just fine at 1080p and some at 1440p. I tend to be a patient gamer and play mostly indies, so it was great.
This article feels like it was written in a language I don't understand. I understand that other people are more into the hobby than I am (which is fine, no judgement, good for them), but its just so far outside what I would consider normal for me that it took me off guard.
