What's an "enthusiast" gamer?

Gaming is my main hobby. I spend a few hours gaming every night in my home theater. Still I prefer to play on a console. It gives me the most time to spend gaming, the least spend on anything else. I would say anyone spending any time on a message board like this is an enthusiast gamer...

The average consumer mostly plays on laptops, tablets, smart phones, and pc ;)

@Nettles Seems I don't have any self respect either :) I will buy an off the shelf pc again down the line for OR or to go with a 4k projector. I don't mind spending a bit more. I used to mess around with pcs, nowadays my time is worth more than the extra cost. (And yes I have had problems with self builds like burned out gpus)

I game on a projector too, and on an ambient light rejecting 110" Black screen I designed and built. Mostly with help from AVS forums. This way the screen itself is Black and I can use it even if the room is flooded with light. So I have it setup in my living room. Its a beauty. Honestly I don't understand how anyone can't or deosn't jump onto projectors. My PJ cost me around $800 and the screen I made cost me around $150. I too will not be upgrading to 4k until teher is a 4k projector I can afford. 

I have a ridiculously powerful RIG that I am increasingly using less and less of every passing day. Now its basically exclusively a work machine. I just prefer being in my living room than being in an office/Pc room i guess. Now all my browsing and PC stuff is done on a surface tablet. I even use a wireless HDD that sits in the PC room downloading all my stuff and go onto access its content from a small HTPC connected to the projector. Now only if the PS4 supports DLNA or can access my HDD wirelessly too.
