I built a PC for emulation

I can emulate all games and pirate everything steam has to offer, save for mp games. Why should I upgrade my prebuilt? For fucking W3? Lol.
>>
>>389272490

Takes mew about 5 months to save $2k for entertainment, I'm 1-2 months away.

Delaying it for Coffee Lake to see if it's worth it, if not then I'm going with a 7700k.

My 2500k system died after 6 years about 4 months ago.

>>389272490
I dunno if I can afford it and I'll probably fuck something up whilst building it resulting in wasted money.

iktfb. happened to me last year, I even had it back at stock speed for the last couple of years before death.

>My 2500k system died after 6 years
Which part broke? I'm still using my trusty 2600k CPU and 4gb 680.
>>
>>389272490

I built my first PC in 2011, no problems. Was getting old and wanted a better CPU so I built a new one in early 2016.

the new PSU had a coil explosion or some weird shit. I open up the case and smoke starting coming out. replaced PSU but I had some hard drives get fried in the process. $130 corsair piece of shit.

I'm over this meme trash. prebuild refurb off newegg next time. using PS4 in the mean time.
>>
>>389274237
>>389274250

I'm almost certain it was the mobo, and with the only option being ebay and a multitude of other issues adding up, it was time for a new build.

I also had an RMA'd GPU for 2 months that was giving me tons of issues which I had thought was the display I got at the same time.

So rather than build a system on something ancient and find out the CPU doesn't work (pretty sure it wasn't dead though), I decided it was time for a new build.

I have and kind of regret not going with lower-end machine

Don't do it man. Just don't buy corsair shit.

Don't listen to this retard

>>389272490
nothing worth playing to justify the time and cost, you can get a toaster and a PS4 from wal mart for the cost to build a high end PC.

I don't care about graphics. I only want convenience. I don't want to look up how to make a game work on my machine. Just want to stick the disc in, install/download any patches and play.
>>
>>389275201
>I only want convenience.
Check the loading screen times for PC vs current gen consoles.
>>
>>389275394
Yes a long loading screen is the problem. Not buying a new game from Valve's shitty DRM service only to have it not run.
>>
>>389274814
Why? Prebuilds are overpriced

>>389275576
Never even happened to me and I have 340 games in my account.

And I've never had that problem on my consoles.

Every fucking time.
>>
>>389276267
I'm not this retard. I know to check requirements before I buy a game. My problem is I meet the requirements and shit still doesn't work. It's been a couple years since I've rented games from Steam though

I couldn't ever imagine going back to playing on consoles. The last time I bought one was the PS3 launch.

This thread could onlybe targeted at console players considering PC players would already have built a PC, numbnuts.

>only be targeted at console players considering PC
Not at all what I've seen. All I've seen from console friends is spouting misinformation and random insults.

Already have, and it's more powerful than 99% of the rest of /v/.

"I want to play games". Implying that's not what PC gamers want.

Exactly, why else would they constantly beg for games that aren't on their platform, and not just simply buy the console they are on?
>>
>>389277647
Either way, you PCfags and your inflated egos are annoying. Nobody cares about that you can run games in 4k or whatever because the novelty wears off after a few games. The only PC has to offer is RTS games and more bugs.
>>
console fags GET OUT.
YOU CANT BUILD YOUR OWN CONSOLE
STOP TRYING TO STRANGLE US.

Pc parts are currently a giant rip off, if i didnt need a new one for work id switch back to consoles.

Already have. Upgraded to 6700k + 1080 last year.
Sees use every week, unlike my dust magnet consoles.

I have

Its pretty alright

Give me some good games to play on PC that are either exclusive or just better than everywhere else. Need something to compliment my Persona 5 playthrough right now.
>>
I have, but that was about 6 years ago. I can't tell if I should wait for even better hardware to make the jump to 144hz. On top of that I don't know if 1440p at 144hz is a meme. If you a grabbing any decent 144hz monitor with gsync or free sync 1440p is barely more than the 1080p monitors.

Choke on a dick famalam
>>
Why would I exactly?
Graphics don't matter to me, 60 fps on any game would be cool and all but most games don't need it and the games that do, already run 60 fps.
PC also has a trash selection of exclusives.
Only reason I'd ever get a "gaming pc" would be to emulate games.

It totally depends on what kind of games you like. It's not a console where everyone just has to circlejerk 2-3 games
>>
>>389278464
tons of time since they have no games to play, that and having to justify the kike markup

>>389277758
I play on PC and I find more often than not, people just want to gloat that they spent $1000+ on a powerful computer they use to watch youtube and netflix all day.
Some are so elitist as to refuse to own other systems, which makes no sense. How the fuck am I supposed to play Persona 5 without a PS4?
>>
currently no place to put it comfortably
i also really don't want to put it together myself
i also need a laptop first

>>389273539
>Fucking CPU overheats at the drop of a hat

Aftermarket coolers exist for a reason. Even the medium ones make a HUGE difference in both cooling and noise.
>>
>>389279837
Persona 5 was a terrible example for multiple reasons, but frankly i don't see the point of wasting my time with something i'll play very rarely that has like, 5 or 6 games i'm interested in. Especially now sony went the monthly fee route, maybe if i had no other options but fuck paying for something that's going to be gathering dust in the long periods between interesting PS4 games that I can't play on my PC.
>>
>>389280076
Nobody who plays on PC would play multiplayer on console. There is literally no reason for you to sub to PSN.
>>
>>389280816
Most singleplayer games have extensive online features that require psn+ though, without it you miss out on content.
Plus multiplayer on exclusives is still something someone might want to do, bloodborne is 1/4th the game without internet.
>>
>>389281070
Bloodborne is just a Souls reskin, so it's not even a necessary exclusive.

Name a game that is both reqires ps+ and is singleplayer.
>>
>>389281872
I don't really care enough about this to bother researching it, i remember some of the ps3 yakuza games had online content but i don't know if that's the case with 0/shitremakewami.
>>
i bought a prebuilt
really happy with it actually

Everything I want to play is on the ps4. I'm not gonna build a pc just to play the same exact games.
