>>
Someone who doesn't realize that they don't actually enjoy video games anymore and that its entirely due to their shitty platform, lack of exposure to other games on different platforms and their desire to want to feel better than other people over trivial shit.

I know because I basically played PC exclusively for the last 15 years. It just offers so little actual quality gaming.

That and they're usually poor and miserable or a combination of both
>>
>>330713831
the size of the card alone means its at best low range nvidia x5x series or amd r7, if its using a ghetto loop or a full block thats even worse.
>>
>all this console-tard salt

>average PC gamer

Someone who likes video games but is too old to give a shit about buying a console, gets into PC games because no console is required (everyone owns a PC), and maybe upgrades to a better GPU later on.

>average pc gamer on /v/

Console baby who built a PC because of Reddit memes.

GPU's are either 9.25 or 11.5 inches

that looks like a 9.25 inch card on a water block. It could be that 960x2 that ASUS made or the 760x2

This is such a stereotypical murican outlook.

Outside of America UK and Japan. PCs are like by a wide margin the most used gaming machines.

Thats why Xbone sold like shit in Europe and it seems Japan is also getting on PC because Steam with tons of companies moving to it.

Consoles really seem to be in a shit spot right now.

PS4 - 35.9 million (as of January 3, 2016)
PS2 - 49.59 million in the same time frame.
Wii - 44.96 million same time frame.

And here are the consolecucks screaming out of the woodwork to discredit pc to make themselves feel better about their inferior platform

>>330714662
What games can you even play when you mouse can only move 10 centimeters to each side?
>>
>>330713209

I bought a CM Storm Enforcer case with two 200mm fans with red LEDs, but the reason I bought the case is because of its incredible airflow and its incredible size for a mid case. It's one of few cases that I could find at the time that supported the huge length of the card I wanted.

I have a Sapphire Tri-X OC R9 290x, which unlike typical Nvidia products, doesn't have a ridiculously obnoxious green LED broadcasting the card brand to everyone in town.

My PSU is a 1000w EVGA Supernova G2, facing the correct direction.

I have a non-RGB Corsair K70 with brown switches, only red LEDs. Matches my case nicely. I have a Logitech G502 mouse.

I do have an optical drive, but I should get rid of it considering my Windows 10 install is on a USB.

I have two 21.5" 5ms ASUS VS228H-P monitors.

a more accurate "typical PC gamer" checklist is something like

>bought a "gaming" headset
>owns a Razer product
>has an Nshillia card
>"it just works"
>>
people who play on pc don't enjoy video games
>>
They are pretty much man children to be honest. They act all giddy and childish over things like frames and resolution, but when a console game happens to be 1080p, 60 FPS they cry about it anyway they can. Not to mention the constant whining over other stupid shit like exclusives not being on PC, thinking they are correct on everything, etc. Seriously, compare a PC gamers behavior to that of a 10 year old kid, it is astonishing how similar their behavior is.

What sensitivity is your mouse at where you need more room?
>>
someone who usually plays video games in their past time; usually on a pc, as opposed to other systems
>>
>>330715251
You must be in the several thousands of DPI with that small of room to move your mouse around.

That leads to very bad accuracy. You probably brought over the old meme from Call of Duty days on consoles where you think that the higher the sensitivity the better. That's not true at all when you're attempting to be as accurate as possible.

I got a G400 v2 and I play Dota 2, CS:GO, Stardew Valley, Factorio, Master of Orion, EU4 and SFV.

I have like huge space for my hands before I get to the keyboard so they can rest on the table. And I got at least 40 cm to the right of my keyboard for the mouse to go anywhere it wants.
