| Conina said: So PCs can also run a "console generation" of 6 - 8 years without problems or big compromises. |
I have been saying that for decades.
I.E. With the old Core 2 Quad. (Which is still running some games today) and the old Core i7 3930K (Which is still running every game today.)
You can build a PC, keep it for a decade and just upgrade the GPU on the odd occasion if you want the best visuals, otherwise you can just reduce a few settings.
The idea that you need to upgrade/throw it out every 6 months hasn't existed since the 90's...
I did sell off the old RX 580 though once it's limitations started to impact my gaming experience in titles like Halo: Infinite, but I could have easily stopped chasing 144hz and high settings and kept it for years longer.
