>Can't even handle 1080p60 Youtube videos
Liar. Even cheap/basic pcs can handle 1080p.
>>319691019
It can handle 1080p videos. Just not the 60fps kind, it stutters like Michael J Fox trembles
>>319691264
>he watched youtube through chrome
you do it to yourself faggot
>>319691397
I actually stream Youtube vids on VLC. Step your game up nigguh
>>319691019
Not him but my machine struggles to play YouTube videos full screen, let alone in HD.
That said, it is ten years old or so.
>>319690745
you havent missed much desu senpai
>>319691736
Try opening them in VLC. CTRL+N to open the stream option.
My 2005 laptop struggles with YT vids on Firefox and Chromium but I can stream them just fine on VLC.

Saving money isn't that hard if you don't go out every day and not eat like a fatassliving with parents also helps tho
>>319690745
I'm in between
I can run most games at very high, sometimes Ultra, with decent framerate, but on a tiny monitor that stuck with me for years (1360x768)
I'll only upgrade when I feel it is super mandatory.
>>319692817
>tfw you have to prioritize where you spend or save your money and you can't justify spending the amount you want for a brand new tower.
I feel guilty even thinking about it. One day
>>319692584
>gtx460
I don't know how it relates, but I have a GT 9600 that was given to me from a rich friend of mine that sold me his PS3 along to get a high-end graphics card.
>tfw my graphics card was literally a giveway out of pity
>tfw it's so old it overheats in less than a hour of playing anything, even Darkest Dungeon or Binding of Isaac, my favorite PC games atm.
I'll stop being a poorfag soonright?

Bruh..
Well, I have a mid-range core2duo CPU from 2006 if it's any consolation.
>>319690745
Not like you're missing anything anyway. I deeply regret building a new PC and buying a new console.
>>319693601
I have this shit along with the overheating GT 9600
Delicious, delicious DDR2 RAM
>>319693683
I've played most of the games up until the release of the new consoles at sub 30 FPS, plus FO4 which runs at a whooping 20 FPS max with low settings. I can't run the rest of the games, even on the lowest possible settings.
Games like GTAV or Witcher 3 are a total no go. They're more like slideshows but they're good for warming my bedroom up when it's cold.
>tfw I barely can play oblivion on the lowest settings at 14 fps
CAN'T FABRICATE
>>319692085
Yeah, I think they work okay inmpv.
That said, the last modern game my machine could play was Left 4 Dead.
>>319694078
Well, let me tell you, these don't get any better at 60fps.
Will $400 buy me a decent graphics card?
>>319694021
Ah shit, mine's the e6420, overclocked.
>AMD Athlon XP 2400+
>512MB Radeon X1600 Pro
>2GB DIMM RAM
>>319694209
$400 can buy a great graphics card. Not top tier, but great

If you don't want to spend an obscene amount of money upgrading everything, I recommend getting an SSD. It was by far the best upgrade I've done, everything will be snappy
>>319690745
My PC is almost 10 years old. ;_;
It's not a total piece of shit, it still runs games decent. But none of the really new ones.
I will definitely upgrade 2016
I need to buy a 144hz monitor but I'm currently saving up for another hair transplant. So that's a no go.
R8.
It actually runs most games decently well, Catalyst overclocking is enough for most shit.
>>319695682
Just shave your head jesus.
>>319695682
>for another hair transplant.
You mean you had one and you need another one? Just let it fall man
>>319695006
If I could have the entire last row I would be so happy.
Come back when you still have a 80GB HD, then we'll talk.
>>319690745
I wondered why my games were running slow, so I looked up my graphics card. Turns out you can buy my card new for 30 dollars.
Time for an upgrade me thinks
>>319693350
Gtx 460, the 1gb version of it at least is fucking awesome. I can run games released today on mid-low with relatively good and stable fps. The heat is real though.

All this and I still pay the bills. What's your excuse?
Watching let's plays is just as fun anyways
>>319690745
What is OP's pic from?
I used to know your feels for a few years until I managed to get better and now I have a 3.3k video gayming computer.

Fuck no. I'll look terrible bald. If I lose this hair I'm guaranteed to die a virgin.
>>319693513
Si senor, one day.
R8 my build /v/, I know it sucks
>>319690745
DO people really watch youtube in 1080p? I just use 720p non-full screen. There's barely a difference in full screen because of compression
>>319697101
If you look terrible bald odds are you look terrible with hair.

I was on XP until 3 months ago.
>>319697241
u wot m8
Can anyone rate that?
Got it for 150€ from a friend who joined the army and wanted to get rid of everything he owned. I know he bought it some months ago.
>>319697671
The CPU alone costs ~260 Euro
Being poor is hard
>>319695682
>let it fall
>get new pc for free because people think you have cancer
>>319697889
Yeah he also sold me 250kg of weights for 20€, it was more a symbolic price than anything.
But is there any particular weakness in this build I should think to upgrade?
>>319698047
I'd say the graphics card and the monitor need an upgrade. Other than that it looks fine.
