Since the minimum and recommended specs for Starfield have come out, I've been budgeting to do a big upgrade on my PC with an AMD 6800 xt and a fancy new 1 TB SSD (which is the first game I've ever seen that requires an SSD) just so I can run the game in all it's space epicness.

What was the game that you were so excited for that you made the jump to upgrade your PC to the next gen of hardware? New or old!

During the pandemic I had a power surge that torched my motherboard and power supply. I didn’t want to have to spend the inflated costs to replace my PC so I just sold my GPU and bought a NUC for a couple hundred dollars.

I used GeForceNow to play PC games on my phone or TV now. Works out for me. I have a PS5 for games that I want a local experience or aren’t available for GeForceNow. Pretty much any game that doesn’t fall into those two categories such OOTP can run on the NUC. Not a bad setup if you have the connection for it
