MODERATORS
My pc lasted over 10 years without a GPU or CPU upgrade. Now it doesn't keep up with AAA titles but there are still plenty of games, old and new, that I can play.
That's cool, but most people want to keep playing current AAA games.
It still kept up for at least 2 generations of AAA when built.
The $700 build is definitely not keeping up with AAA games for two full console generations.
What would make you think that a PC wouldn't also be able to do this for longer? Lol.
The fact that most of my PC builds are generally midrange builds (i.e. about that $700 price if I reuse the case and PSU and GPU prices aren't surging), and that midrange-build-GPU is only barely usable for AAA for one full generation. It might go for longer with games that are as well-optimized as a Doom game, but that's not the norm.
