RIP PC gaming.

It's time to move on to consoles I guess, or maybe even stop gaming tbh.

This statement above ^^ says it all.

Console gaming here comes everyone
PS5 here we come

Oh the glorious unresponsive blurry mess 30fps! Literally unbearable for most pc players. The only reason playstation is still a thing is exclusives. Thanks MS for bringing xbox games to pc, so we don't have to suffer xbox1x as well.

Was hoping to go with EVGA, but didn't see it at 7. Went with a RTX 2080 GIGABYTE Windforce

There were technically *very* good examples in the launch presentation. Presumably peopled missed those cos they'd fallen asleep.

I did not miss the Star Wars one, indeed it was better.

but u worked hard in your job/career to be able to afford those cars so the person you are quoting is saying that.

ie people who have worked hard in life to obtain funds to buy things like this is what his on about

To say half of the forum is moaning because they didn’t work hard at school though is a bit daft.

People are moaning because it’s the British thing to do. Had they shown benchmarks with it tearing the 1080 a new one I doubt as many would be moaning about the price.

So who else is looking forward to the 2060?

Would love to know the % of cards sold already of each. I reckon the 2018 Ti will be ahead on sales at this stage

Not boasting (much) but please don’t tarnish people with that brush

His statement was kinda stupid tbh.

Pricing out entire segments of market isn't a great long term decision either.... especially if it just drives more people to consoles. I love PC gaming it's my bread and butter but even i'm thinking of going back to consoles. Maybe when next gen ones come out.

Might as well go the whole way and get the TI!

I think they were just teasing a little.
It's also about saving money to afford other things too IMO.

Kinda stupid statement too....

Not really, school is meaningless. Work ethic isn’t.

Half the forum here can afford this any mention of not working hard enough / school etc is just childish and wrong.

Your brush seems to have salt on it

Why? I've put my order in! Certainly better spent on a RTX than an Aston

. No honestly I've driven the DB9 and a couple of the V12s for a fortnight, and they're great for a tourer but as a drivers car they're dull as dish water

By School I meant "work hard", clearly your in a position from working hard that buying an Aston is the same as some people treating themselves to a Focus, it's all in relation, you've already said money isn't a problem your waiting for performance, well the price is a problem to some people cause they can't afford it, if they could they would buy Aston's as well (if it was their thing). If they had what you have do you think they would moan about the price like your not?

He was just being the big kid teasing the others with his new trainers.

I’m willing to bet half the forum here would lay money on this had it blown the ti to pieces.

Instead we get Jen making NVIDIA shareholders wonder why we are paying this tourist
