its clear cut for a reason,  real geaphics whores stick to pc -  they can upgrade to their hearts content for the best graphics,  dont confuse owning a low to mid spec pc aa autonatically being a graphics whore. 

 

if you want to see what a real graphics whores pc looks like,  look inside mine,  bens,  permalites or cgiqualitys rig. 

That's like saying you aren't a cinephile if you don't own a home theatre system, or you're not a bibliophile if you don't have a library of books at home. 

Not owning something is not the same as not wanting or enjoying it.

no im simply saying owning a toyota camry doesnt make you a speed freak,  because a speed freak would buy something faster. 

 

graphics whore denotes someone that goes all out for the best possible graphics,  hence the 'whore'  bit,  you confusing someone that appreciates good graphics but doesnt necessarily own a high end pc,  with a graphics whore who invariably is called a whore explicitly BECAUSE they go all out on their build. 

And if you can't, you aren't? Does not compute.

Perhaps your definiton of a graphics whore is different to mine.

The way I see it a graphics whore is a person who percieves graphics in games to be of paramount importance, over all other aspects.  It doesn't matter if they only own a gameboy colour, if they value things that way, that's what they are.
