      Garbage / virtually non-existent local multiplayer.
      Garbage startup times.
      Loses best graphics, art, animation, etc to consoles first party games yearly.
      Gigantic, loud, energy consuming towers.
      Hunched over desk and chair gaming on a small screen.
      But yeah... Go ahead and name 1 single great pc exclusive. 😂😂😂😂😂😂

      If you're gaming on a PC it's because:
      A. You are a child and your parents control what you play and what you play on.
      B. You're a foreigner (not from the USA) and hate games based on American or Western culture.
      C. You are poor and can't afford a luxury item like a console.
      D. You are on the spectrum and enjoy repetitive point and click games.
      E. All of the above.
      😂😂
      Oh, and you want to talk about visuals? Best looking games by year:
      2023- Spider-Man 2 (Not on PC), Alan Wake 2.

    For anyone wondering, once you've built a gaming pc, it's incredibly easy to just upgrade a part! Let's say you want a new GPU (Graphics Processing Unit), all you have to do is buy a compatible GPU, and then swap it out for the one already in your machine, or add it to the second slot! (That depends on your motherboard) I highly encourage getting in to gaming on a pc as there is so much more options when it comes to gaming! Happy gaming! :)

      @@drago4813 definitely build (WAY CHEAPER) but I recommend watching Austin Evans guide. Once you build and rebuild it a few times, you can build it in as little as 15 minutes! If something goes wrong, I recommend calling microcentre. You don't need to go in the store they'll just walk you through how to troubleshoot! I had a bad CPU and 2 bad motherboards, the odds in that happening are 1/1000000 but it can happen. Buy your parts in a store rather than online, trust me!

Additionally, researching the reputation of the seller and thoroughly inspecting the system before buying are essential steps. It's definitely a topic worth exploring to help beginners make informed decisions. Let me know if you have any other questions or if there's anything else I can assist you with!

      I don't know if i will get an answer here but here's hoping. Last night I was playing a game and it was running a little slow (fps drops and freezing) for reference I have a 2080super, 16gb of ram and a Intel i7-9700k. So I closed out my game and went looking for a reason as to why the fps drops were happening. First stop.... storage space, I went to my D: drive and deleted some old RUclips recordings/game clips and then moved to my C: drive which is 90% full and I thinks that's bad right? So I deleted the EFT (Live) folder in the battle state games folder and then resarted my computer. When it turned back on everything was going at like 1fps and after about 10 mins just completely shut off. I asked a friend and he thought I deleted a core file, so I restored every file except the EFT one because it was to large to restore. It is now the next morning and still barely working and turning off after 10-15 mins. I don't know what to do besides take it somewhere. Any advice?

    I'm excited to evntually build a proper gaming pc. Beyond the initial investment it seems so much more convenient than console gaming. Your library is always there, online communities are a lot more active, buying games to build out your library is a lot cheaper and not charging me to play online is a welcome return coming from console gaming.

    The biggest advantage of console gaming is less power usage. Gaming pcs use a whole lot of electricity compared to console.
    Some will complain about installing drivers but it's not rocket science nor is it difficult even for a beginner. Download , double click press next a few times and you're done. The majority of the time you don't have to tweak driver settings.

      PCs have many different gaming platforms. It isn't like Xbox or PS where you can only buy games through the respective online store or through discs. You have Steam, Rockstar game launcher, epic games, Ubisoft connect and a myriad of other game platforms to buy and download games.
      If you build your own PC, you buy the parts to assemble it. If you buy a pre-built gaming PC, then its already assembled and has everything you need.

    I’m wanting to get into PC, it seems like these days, consoles and PCs have switched up quite a bit. I grew up when consoles were as good as gaming got, nobody had gaming PCs and if they did, the experience was garbage, and it just made more sense to have a console but PCs have come so far and now it seems like most people who are serious about gaming (even as a hobby) have a gaming PC and consoles. It just seems so much more versatile to have a PC. Especially as someone who is wanting to start a gaming channel, it makes way more sense to consolidate everything into a PC and having the ability to make it a more seamless process. And I’m totally sick of the console wars. I haven’t been able to get my hands on a PS5 and I’m not sure if I’m ready to fully switch to Xbox, so it seems like a good time to try out PC. And- free online? Hell yes. PlayStation switching from PSN to PS+ was fucking ridiculous

    I have also played my games on a console and normally get those people who are toxic, on PC I have only had one and that was while playing Resident Evil 5 but far as I have seen games look and feel better on PC then that of a console. I am glad to of moved to PC and I wish I did it sooner XD My MOBO, CPU and RAM cost me £500 as I have gotten these parts, MSI MAG B550 Tomahawk, CPU - AMD Ryzen 7 3800X [3.9GHz], RAM - Kingston FURY Beast 16GB [3200MHz] and PSU - AeroCool Intergrator 850W (80+)

    • @JJFlores197
      @JJFlores197 6 месяцев назад +1

      There are 2 types of computer memory: system memory (RAM) and system storage. RAM - Random Access Memory is a type of memory that's used as temporary storage. When you load up a game or program, parts of the game get copied from main storage (system storage) to RAM so that the CPU (processor) can process the data. RAM is temporary storage because it is only used to temporarily store data; think of it like a scratchpad.
      The system storage or main storage is the hard drive and/or SSD. This is where all of the data that you have on your computer - say games, documents, pictures, movies, etc is all stored.
      The more RAM a computer has, the larger the programs that you can have open without performance issues. Most gaming PCs nowadays have around 16-32 GB of RAM. Main storage is usually a lot bigger. Most computers have at least 500 GB of storage, if not a lot more.
