If I sold all my consoles I could probably afford a 980 GTX.

If I sold all my consoles I could probably afford a 980 GTX.

But would I be happy?
>>
have you tried not being poor
>>
how about getting a job
>>
Never sell your consoles dumbass
>>
If that's your pic you wouldn't even be able to afford a 950 by selling both the platforms.
>>
No. Think about how many games you could buy for the price of a 980.
>>
>>329605780
No, it would be a 980 4chan machine

I don't know what third world country you live in. Anyone with 2 part-time jobs could afford a 980ti in 2 and a half months

I have been thinking on buying a GTX 960.
I think it's the best I can affor with a 250€ budget and a 500w PSU.
Am I right?
>>
>>329607431

I got a refurbished 970 for around that price.
>>
PC gaming isn't for poorfags.
>>
>>329608334
That's why 90% of PC players have a 970 or 750ti right?
>>
>>329605780
how do i be happy ?
>>
>>329610173
what is the 'happy'
>>
>>329605780
You could play all those great, graphically intensive games like.... cities skylines and... uh... american truck simulator.

Why go on?
>>
>>329605780
Happiness ain't real unless you are dumb, and seeing a human pay for that many consoles tells me that they are dumb. You will be happy
>>

>2.5 months working 40 hours per week at two jobs

Huh? It's about 3 weeks of minimum wage in Canada. 2 and a half is nuts
>>
>>329605780
no
>>
>>329607162

Europe, working full time in a pizza joint nets you 6-750€ and if you buy a 980ti you've basically blown the entire monthly budget.
>>
>>329608334
That's why PC gaming has piracy and Steam sales. Definitely no poor people here...
>>
>>329605780
No dumbass. Console gaming is perfect for poorfags. PC is for people with enough money to afford to own not only a PC but consoles as well. PC by itself isn't good enough.
>>
what kind of pc can I build with $15k?
>>
>>329611260
I don't understand how someone can say this without it being a joke. You can emulate a load of consoles and play PC games all the way back from the 70s, all for free.
>>
>>329611602
Yeah but all you need is a toaster for that and I'm assuming OP has a toaster at least.

Honestly it really depends on what consoles you have.
>>
>>329611293
a pretty good one
>>
>>329605780
If you sell your games you WILL regret it. Especially since you seem concerned you will miss them.

If I had a dollar for everytime I saw anon post about their stupid younger self selling their vidya I would be up there with Bill Gates.
>>
>>329605780
YOU'LL NEVER BE HAPPY.
>>
>>329605780
Wait, d oy o seriously think you can afford a GTX980 just from selling an xbone and a tripple?

I didn't know GTS980 was $100.
>>
>>329605780
Hell no.
>>
>>329613407
That's a 360 and a PS3.

And I don't even have those console versions anymore. The PS3 is a Super Slim and the 360 became an S.

And I have an XB1 and PS4.

Absolutely not, all the biggest games of this year are coming to consoles and handhelds, I haven't played a single PC game since Divinity OS released in 2014. Don't plan to either now on principle, thanks to Denuvo.

i just bought a 960 and i want to kill myself

get a job, anon

i sold my gamecube because the wii could play all my games anyway :/
>>
>>329613637
Then why did you post a photo of a 360 and PS3 if you don't have them? Tha'ts pretty fucking retarded.

The entire question is based on the premise of us knowing what consoles you have ,retard.

Thanks for the link and recs.

Thoughts on the 380?

I feel bad for you guys. I still like to play my n64. Hell I even get nostalgic when I fire up the wii.

Never sell old consoles.
>>
Modern games are shit. You can probably play all the worthwhile PC games out there on whatever toaster you're using now.

>budget build
Just save your money and build something you won't need to upgrade in two years. Also it's a terrible time to build since a bunch of new shit is a couple of months away.
>>
>>329607162
Even a substitute teacher in America can earn a 980ti in a single paycheck. And we don't get paid all that much.
>>
>>329607162
I can get it in 2-3 week if I didn't have anything else to buy, Then again, I'm full time.
>>
>>329605780
yes.

Sell em and get a 970, OP. 980ti ain't worth the pricetag right now.

You would be happy. We all want you to be happy, OP.

Old consoles lose value faster than a shitty pop song goes out of style. Video games are a shallow hobby with little reward but little effort. Iit's what you accept when you get into gaming.

This, you're sort of updating for nothing. We're basically reliving, copypaste 1980's.
>>
>>329617713
Nigger the 900 series is already getting blown away in DX12 games. Nvidia has a poor track record of supporting older cards once their new line comes out. He may be happy with a 970 for a year at most and then he's going to want to upgrade.
