I'm a PC dummy and haven't a clue what my PC's specs are, I simply waltzed into my local trustworthy computer shop a few years ago and said "Build me a super-duper PC capable of playing all the high-end flight sims and strategy games out there"
It cost me £1700 (2300 US dollars) and works like a dream, it runs everything I throw at it smooth as silk..:)

Basically this :D

While being student I didn't have money for better and now my priorities are different.
But it was interesting sometimes. From all the games I used to play LoL was probably optimized the best for toaster computers. The game loaded always some 15 seconds after it started and everybody already left the base :D but otherwise it run very smoothly without lags as long as the internet connection was good. 11 to 13ms ping was standard.
The funniest memories I probably have with MMORPGs, where the environment loaded too slowly and upon landing my character fell under the ground :D then I was glad I had some teleport scrolls with me. Or when I came to new area, enemy NPCs didn't load yet (edit: didn't load visibly on my pc) and I was wondering what killed me.

I think pc games are better because you can mod them. Mods can add 100's of hours to games like Skyrim. Just breathes new life into them.

PS5
PC is too hardcore for me
Which games do you have? Any that would warrent buying a ps5?

Too long a list. I have fps from call of duty, borderlands to games like ncaa football, nhl hockey, fortnite etc.

However I haven’t been gaming as much. I work 9-5. Go in dad mode after work, then downtime/workout for me then I usually have my downtime with my wife then randomly drop on VC when I can

The mod side is really cool do have to admit that. Mines more preference of ease with consoles is all since like i said don;t like touching a pc much after working on it all day.

A game has to be amazing for me to want to literally put in work on a keyboard or controller. That's why I prefer PC gaming. PCs offer a much bigger variety of games you don't have to mash a million buttons for hours.
