    What if I play hentai puzzle games? They are graphically intense in some sense.

    I’ve never known a PC gamer with a super powerful PC that didn’t play graphically intensive games. Quite a few the opposite tho.

    I agree, I just don’t see it being an issue that people are talked into getting something more powerful than they need.

    If someone can afford it and wants to overbuild so they don’t have to worry about upgrades and have flexibility in what they can play, it’s not a bad thing. Especially if you’re a social gamer, having a rig that you know can handle any game your friends may decide to get into can be all the reason you need to overbuild.

    What? Are you telling me I shouldn’t have bought my 4090 to play Stardew Valley? I don’t believe you!

  4. JerbearCuddles

    Thankfully, I play graphically intense games.

    Flagship card are wasteful. 2013 Nvidia Titan 6gb got easily replaced by 2016 Nvidia Pascal GTX 1060 and Radeon RX 480/580.

    Recommended midrange value graphic card for every console era.

    2006 PS3 = 1 gb vram directX 11 from 2010-2012.

    2013 PS4 = 4 gb – 6 gb vram. 2016 GTX 1050 ti, GTX 1060 6gb, Radeon RX 570-580.

    Wait for the midrange value 16 gb card in the PS5 era.

    2015-2019 live service dominated 60% playtime in 2023 (Kotako GDC report). Still carried by 8 gb and 4 gb Pascal equivalent graphic cards.

  7. I partly stopped playing graphicaly intense games due to my aging system and graphics cards prices being screwed up for like 5+ years.

    The max you need is 1080p, MAYBE 4k if you wanna watch movies.

  9. techtimee

    Or if you want high refresh rates, or VR, or use it for work and personal projects

    Dying light 2 is really bringing my 3070ti to its knees

  11. KJBenson

    How dare you.

    Mindustry runs like smooth butter on my 4080!

  12. TheCringeMemer

    Nah,We need those High end GPUs for “School stuff”

  13. Additional-Ad-7313

    WoW Player here, yeah my rig can run it

    Hobbyists gonna do what they gonna do.

    Hate and shame other Hobbyists for spending more money.

    …or, you know, depend on a GPU for other GPU-accelerated tasks and can benefit from the extra horsepower or VRAM.

    PCs are used for more than *just* games, you know.

  16. SunnyTheMasterSwitch

    But every now and then there’s a new game that you wouldn’t be able to run without a stronger GPU

    If I build a top of the line machine, its main purpose will always be porn. Cooming > Gaeming

  18. willcard

    My PC has a 1080TI i have atleast another 20 years to go

  19. Tell this to my my 10yo HDD and cpu who is constantly at 100% while my gpu chills since he has nothing to do during the low FPS

  20. BlueFireBlaster

    When I built a pc for a friend, i put in his (expensive at the time) pc a 2070, even though he was only playing CS GO and League at the time. My thought process was that “now he has a powerful pc, he might want to pick up a more graphically intense game now that he has the option”. Some years later, CS 2 is released, and now he actually needs that gpu.

  21. EldrinVampire

    Need a more powerful GPU for more power for VR

  22. ThisIsNotMyPornVideo

    The thing is “Graphically intense” doesn’t mean ANYTHING nowadays because shit is so optimized.

    When i ask you, which game is more GPU Demanding.

    Assassin’s Creed Mirage in 4k with MAX settings
    OR
    Cities Skylines 2 with the same Settings?

    while showing you footage of both, do you think ANY person would say CS2?, Where you get 20FPS, whereas in ACM, you get 120

    The ace attorney trilogy while being composed of just static text bars and sprites absolutely punches my poor igpu pushing it to minimums of 90% usage (tbf it is an HD graphics 530 but it’s still a sprite based game dammit)

  24. TheWiseFucker

    What, these days, are actual games that require that?

    Cause I play a shitload of games when I can

  25. Cyber_Akuma

    But… I **do** play graphically intense games, AND simple looking games, AND emulated games… >!and use it for AI.!<

    By the way, the game that has slowed down my 11700K/GTX 1070 (now a RTX 2080 Super) PC the most is not the graphically intense games…. but Vampire Survivors of all things…. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BK9edWgCCHg

  26. I wanted a good GPU because video games are most of my personality.

  27. It triggers me when people abbreviate games that either no one abbreviates or no one knows.

    I play MB and BD sometimes

  28. Zhabishe

    All games these days are intense. Not because of super awesome graphics or something, but…

  29. suppersell

    ok, but what about graphically intense development? I’m rendering stuff in blender

  30. keyboardwarrior7
