You think she plays League?

not to mention she might just have any sort of computer related hobby which requires some amount of power. not just gaming but any kind of demanding software or locally hosted AI or something of the sort. Saw someone elsewhere in the thread suggest she just asked the guy at best buy or listened to a gamer nephew's advice as if a woman can't decide to get a high-spec computer for her own reasons

If you’re in IT, you know most people don’t know anything about computers.

But then again, if you’re not in IT, you “know” how “incelar” (haha get it?) most IT people can be.
