The 4090 is a product for GPU-coomers, it can't be used as a metric. The mass market lies in the midrange, the 50s and 60s, then the 70s starts to creep in. The 3090 Ti isn't even on Steams list so it's got an adoption rate of less than 0.15%(that's where the list cuts off).
That is true that the majority of PC's userbase does tend to skew more towards the low to mid end. The demographics for PC tend to play lesser demanding games, Counter Strike is still up there in the most played PC games. I mean the elden ring upgrade fiasco when it needed a 1000 series card. That's a six year old card which would mean many of the users had not upgraded in around 8-10 years.
You don't need a very high-end graphic card for PC gaming, only retarded console warriors like you think that way. I currently own a Nvidia RTX 2060 and that card can handle anything I could throw at it. Even my GTX 1050 Ti served me pretty well between 2015-2020 and I sure wouldn't mind getting back to a GPU of this size scale (with no power connectors).
I have a few 2060s installed in my machines too, I mean it's fine for some things, but you're really are not getting anything specifically catered towards more on PC since miners have usurped gamers as the main demographic who buys the performance cards. Nvidia got into trouble for faking the numbers and lower the number of crypto users who buy their hardware. They've been largely supported by cryptominers for years at this point and it doesn't really look like that's going to change.
you like the games and their stories so much you're willing to buy a whole new platform for it and then keep buying more games and ps+. the idea is getting people into the "ecosystem" (usually with games which won't make much money anymore on their original platform). and even if you don't pick up a playstation afterwards you might have played the games and talk about it, generating word of mouth.
don't forget the options console simply doesn't get, in theory you could play a new AAA game on old hardware - it will look like ass with shit resolution and low fps, but the option is there (besides, if you don't fall for the 4k meme everything from the last 5+ years, it not longer, will do fine with 1080p).
New consumer graphics card have not always ran in the thousands, that's a very new phenomenon. They also used to sell below MSRP, even IHV offerings, imagine that.
It's either one more blatant convenient lie (the usual thing you do after someone calling out your bullshit) or just another proof you're a dumb and rabid consumer with far too much money to burn.
But the PS5 being so hard-to-get and sold at an inflated price isn't somehow an issue at all.
Nice coping mechanism faggot. For all your past rantings about the worldwide market mattering more, especially on the topic of japanese games, it's funny how you desperately pretend PC isn't the more successful platform on that criteria. Like there is a reason why the majority of PS console games have been releasing on PC and/or Switch at the same time because Playstation just isn't a guarantee for game sales anymore, either be in Japan and worldwide.
Not falling into the meme of ultra graphic settings too.
Most games come as optimized as possible considering that PC doesn't have set graphical specs. Some games are well optimized like GTA 5, others are more poorly optimized, like Elden Ring. But if you meet the minimum graphical requirements, which aren't that hard to meet today, you can still run the games, even with poor optimization. And if a game performs poorly, usually the fans will release their own patches to help perform better. That is not an option for consoles, which don't allow any form of fan modification. And games can be poorly optimized for consoles as well (see Cyberpunk 2077).
Multiple store fronts is a benefit, not a problem, as it means that one company doesn't monopolize everything. Both GOG and Steam allow, and even encourage, modding. The only storefronts that probably wouldn't would be the personal storefronts of individual developers (maybe). Its a moot point because consoles don't allow modding at all.
You want to install FMCB and MechaPwn if possible. If your console is too old to use MechaPwn you'll have to use ESR to run burned games instead.
Even then, the Elden Ring sysreq is for the "High" settings at 60fps which I assume is the equivalent of PS5/XBXBX. What that requires is a graphics card that had an MSRP of $250 more than half a decade ago and often sold for less than that.
To me, it looks like the white PSP is trying to compete with the black PSP. Why?
People don't just buy PCs for games dude. I have this coupled with a Ryzen 9.
Multiple RTX 2060 GPUs, for his multiple computers that he has, so he can get high quality PC gaming performance in every room of his house, despite trashing PC gaming and preferring PlayStation.
and also running an incredibly powerful, expensive CPU that's completely wasted on all of his use cases, which don't seem to need anything stronger than a Core i3.
If the memory card already has FMCB on it you're set. If not, you'll have to find another entry point to install it with. Your options depend on what exact PS2 model you have (should be on the sticker) and what DVD Player software version is on it.
I mean they're not really used for gaming in the first place, my retro setups have probably more hours logged into them because I fixed an old mac and wanted to get it to run shit.
I can't imagine what kind of situation you're in where it was a better idea to buy multiple 2060s instead of a single 2080, unless you run an internet cafe.
I didn't really have that much choice at the time, it's what they had in stock for the number I needed and the bulk discount was pretty significant. That and my previous set up began to shit itself and I lost a machine. So rather than dealing with having each machine fail due to general wear and tear I wound up just replacing them all at once since the previous ones were all the same age.
Why on Earth do you need a bunch of different computers with modern midrange GPUs, rather than just one very powerful machine that you could set up thin clients around?
