9th gen, someone was born with a silver spoon up their ass
Hell yeah, I bet Quake II is incredible on this setup!
In all seriousness, there are decades of wonderful games to enjoy with a setup like this. Doesn’t always have to be about the latest and “greatest”
Duke 3D is always worth a play though!
I totally agree. Simply run PS3 or PS2 games. Extra fun with those enabling co-op. Then you can play with friends both locally and local through the network (like steam remote play)
I still game on a 1080 and honestly it's holding up just fine. I don't really play any AAA games though.
The nice part of a system that old is upgrades an be got for pretty cheap. Ebay has the i5 9500 for like $50 or the i7 for about $100. Locally you can probably find a better deal. For that $100 you might just get a whole system.
Was going to upgrade decade old CPU this year but AI horded all the stuff and now I gotta few more years till prices come down to the Earth
Is real 4k120hz monitor really that hard to drive by Gtx 1660 and 9th gen i3? This 2 components are still powerful hardwares, I have a laptop with 4th gen Ryzen5 and Gtx 1660ti and it can drive 4k144hz it just fine using DSR, if you are only using it for yt or normal desktop usage it's pretty overpowered but for games it can run at 1080p and some 1440p just fine at respectable settings unless it's Unreal5 shit then I can't argue with that
Twitch is fine. I love twitch. Gaming is overrated. Uhh lowers settings
I'm running a 1660 Super, TYVM!
You can use Lossless Scaling to watch YouTube videos in 4K 120fps maybe if you're lucky lol
They're not coming back down, no.
