  • 32 GB G.Skill Flare X5 DDR5
  • ASRock AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT
  • Gigabyte B650 X AV V2 Motherboard

    Idk man. The PC community is full of shills and assholes if you ask me. Most uptight ego bitches I’ve ever seen with a constant “one up” mentality. It used to be cool back in the 90s and early 2000s when PC builds were about looks and now it’s just “oh you can’t afford a 5090 you must be broke, go back to console you piece of shit”

    Yeah lol… Super fun community for sure b

        Thanks! My last build was when the Nvidia 10 series and 7th Gen Intel i7s were the latest releases. This build feels like a rocket ship compared to my old rig!

        To be fair, I understand his sentiment. I just don’t agree with him painting a broad brush, but I understand his feelings.

            We’re okay here I think. At least better. The less pessimistic and cynical we are, the easier it will be to achieve, at least! ❤️😊 Reddit was cancer in so many ways, not just in “subreddit X, Y, Z”.

      Hard disagree. Every community will have some elitists, but overall, my experience in PC gaming communities has been very positive.
