built my first pc in 2014 - 4th gen intel & 770gtx. Upgraded 2022, 8 years later - 13k & 4070TI. It was a nice upgrade. Doing the same for my phone this week, which i've been on a note8 since 2017 & getting a s25 ultra. You'd be surprised how well hardware holds up when you're not chasing the newest thing & just playing through your own backlog.
In regards to a PC upgrade, I tend go with a whole new build every 7 years roughly, while upgrading the video card and other minor components at the half way point, roughly every 3 and a half years. I am close to the 7 year mark on my PC, so I’m looking to do a new build soon. Going with a 9800X3D of course, but I may hold onto my video card, a rtx 3080, for a little while longer, since the 5080 just seems like a bad deal. That card will age like milk given the increasing VRAM requirements for games nowadays. It should have had 24GB of VRAM minimum for a $1000 card.
My rule of thumb to upgrade any tech-related thing is every 4 years. Retro handhelds are an exception 😅, but I'm definitely going to slow down my spending on handhelds this year and onwards.
depends on games coming out, right now alot of games run fine if you have a modest resolution. canada computers got a stock of 0 and single digits for most canadian retailers, microcenter as a whole across the US only got 100 units so its a paper launch
I like the Ayaneo 3 as a gimmick; I'd love to try out those modules. I don't love the price. What I would like to see happen is that some of the older exclusive games get released for newer platforms. There is no reason there is no call of duty on the switch or some other PS2/PS3 games on the switch.
Hey Joey in the last video you brought up the Anbernic 34xxsp, I was wondering where you heard that this was coming because I cannot find any evidence of it anywhere other than your video.
I usually wait for a performance boost that's like 40 to 75% higher when it comes to getting upgrades for my PC. Orrrrr im unhappy with the performance to the point its a problem😅. Going to keep rocking my 3080. Might upgrade my 5600x soonish. Need more cores for some workloads and dont want the 5700x 3d to go bye bye
11900k 128g of ddr4 and QUADRO A6000… hopefully won’t need to upgrade for 8 years or until there a huge ai breakthrough in hardware that I can’t live without
Ninja gaiden 2 black is a remaster of ninja gaiden 2 sigma, not the normal ninja gaiden 2 for Xbox 360. Which is kind of a bummer because people like the original more, but it's stuck on xbox360. Ninja gaiden 2 sigma is already on pc.
The 50 series GPUs have quantity problems, it's like nvidia only started making them a month ago. After AMD said they wouldn't be competing with nvidia, almost like nvidia pivoted from 3nm gpu back to a 4nm gpu at the last minute to price gouge the market and still maintain a generational upgrade for the 60 series because 2nm R&D isn't going well. but what would i know
Ayaneo 3 is just so much money with that small of a battery. I also have my doubts that the controls will work as advertised. Going to be a skip from me
Joey trying to lose all credibility saying Spider-Man 2 had an awesome story, The story was so bad but I hope insomniac never makes another Spider-Man.
Everyone: "Man, those Ayaneo prices are nuts." Ayaneo: "Hold my beer."
Tbf the base model isn't actually that bad
699 isn't bad at all
the current base model for the ayaneo 3 is genuinely good for the hardware
I always appreciate these videos. Have a great weekend Joey!
Catching this one on the Job. Shout-out from the Lone Star State

I used to upgrade my PC every year when flagship video cards cost $599. Nowadays i just don't. I can buy a $3000 video card, but i'm not an idiot.

I haven't upgraded my pc but two times and that is when I got pretty cheap hand me downs

Citron has been a game changer for switch emulation. Especially with turnip drivers on android. I just fear itll get shut down like the others.

On nice! I just picked the Medieval PS4 exclusive remaster for Christmas! Graphics> Retroachievements lolol
lol not the spawn wave format 😂💀
I barely upgrade my pc honestly, when the latest total war starts dipping below 60fps I get a new one (usually used).
All I know the Xbots are tight about that xbox move 😂 its too funny

I'll double down for you, Spider-Man 2 had an awesome story, loved it.

Hard disagree,
But I respect the fact that you’re sticking to your guns.
