you were actually interested in getting them to work well
now that they just work well on their own they hold no entertainment value

You realized that it made no difference and the games still suck.
Learn from it and don't update your PC again if the only reason is to play games.

This was me around Black Friday 2015. Wanted to get back into PC gaming, bought all the ingredients for muh rig on sale, played with it for a few weeks, and then went back to doing things my T510 would have made quick work of.

New games all seem pretty mediocre.

Start programming or something. I have a games on mine. But nothing to graphic intensive and all strategy. So if you're still looking for a game I at least recommend Stellaris. But I'm in the same boat as you. $1000 down the drain. Should have got a mac or something.

What the fuck are you "video editing"?

Every other asshole in a thread about graphics cards or gaming pcs or whatever claims that they do "video editing".

What?

Anime music videos?

Wedding tapes?

Watch me react to 2 girls 1 cup?

Play a new game. Preferably one that doesn't take up too much of your time. I tend to ger sick of those

Sell it. You can make decent money building PCs for normies that are tech illiterate.

There are no good games to play on PC.

Even the "good" games like Metal Gear Solid V, Dark Souls 3, Street Fighter V, and Doom are highly derivative of games that have come before. If you've played their predecessors nothing will feel new.

Games which are not sequels and updates are just trash for the most part.

I did this, thought I wasted $1500 freedombucks, but now I just shitpost and do everything I want normally, and if I want to try out a game it's just a little perk to be able to slide everything up to Ultra or whatever and see what it looks like. I mean the games still suck and I get bored super fast but it's nice not to have to worry about "omg can my toaster run this shit".

Was it worth the cash? Nah. Is it kinda cool now that I already have it? Sure. Just keep doing your thing.
>>
I'm in a similar situation, I've been saving up to build gayming pc, but I feel it will happen the same as with OP, the reason for this is that everytime I turn on my PS3 I just play for about 15 minutes and then feel like I'm just wasting my time and then turn it off. I though it was because I didn't have any new games since GTAV but I don't know.
I was thinking in buyin a 2DS instead to save money, and if I didn't like I just could give it to my nephew.

I did this a few years back and just stopped upgrading my computer

I think I'll sell it to my cousin now and replace it with a mini ITX build

>Hardware can barely run new games
>Hardware can't do the actual work I want to do
>Upgrading isn't worth it for gaming

At least I bought all my components on sale, used or refurbed for cheap
If I had the money back then I probably would have blown 1k+ on a build and wound up where I am now
>>
>>55095203
no shame man, you can probably play that at 150+ fps with a 144hz monitor and make it look fucking smooth as shit, i cant even run it at 50fps medium-ish settings

I built a pc a couple months back but since I don't have a job yet I can't play any games. I so badly won't to (I have the money in my bank acount as savings) but if I did that then I'll only be spending money and while generating no income.

Life sucks atm cause no gym also.
