The only PC games I play are work related.
Yeah, the only PC games I play these days is abandonware
just hop into Starcraft II or D2 Resurrection! All you'll ever need.
Well, most of my games have to be dialed down at least a bit to play, but for the most part, they run well enough, Oddly, what has been giving me fits lately, is the online version of GTA V, which is a years old game! The online version, especially when the server is full, can bring my CPU to its knees if shit starts popping off with multiple players creating chaos. I run a hardware monitor and my poor little CPU takes a knee pretty fast. Assassin's Creed Odyssey can hammer it pretty badly also, as it's another massive world and when a things start to get crazy gameplaywise, my CPU tanks into the red then, as well. Recent 4x games give it fits, too.
So here’s the most important question: what game is giving you problems that made you say “ah shit, it’s time”?
Yep. That curve flattened off quite a bit. I remember thinking around 2015 or so I would need to get a new chip and board any day...here we are in 2021, almost 2022 when i am finally going to do it.
