Turn it into a waifu2x server

Same, built my first rig, realise i am working now so much less time spent using it, dont even want to game either.

don't feel bad, when the urge to game comes back, you'll already have what you need.

>He fell for the PC gaymen meme
>He fell for the gaymen meme

Try these: Firewatch, The Stanley Parable. They're both short AF though. Same spot as you but I didn't spend a lot on my PC just bought a used 580 senpai.

>waifu2x server
what's that? i feel like a newfag for asking that...

I made the same mistake, except I bought a gtx 1080 and a 6700k.

At least I spent money on a kick-ass monitor too. I'll probably sell the 1080, throw in a 1060 or something because why not, and be happy with it. But spending around $3000 on an upgrade after 6-7 years of minimal PC changes and realizing I don't care about any games released in the last 5 years was a super weird feeling that made me reevaluate my life.


I make enough money now that it wasn't a big deal, and at the same time I've come to the genuine problem of having no way to use my top of the line PC.

you're a pathetic wagecuckold with no time for hobbies.

I'm a literature professor and writer. I work like four hours a day. Time isn't the issue.

you already fucked up when you spent 1.2k on children's entertainment
if you really want to gayme just get a console and don't get your epeen in a twist because it's not muh 60 fps

>can't think of anything to use a gaming computer for other than video games
the imagination of this guy, guess an hero is the only solution for you OP

>paying for console games and TV and spending more than 1.2k in the long run
wew lad you're so dumb and retarded.

>spend 900€ on a.PC
>week later it becomes youtube/facebook machine

Kill me

for that price you probably at least got high quality parts. sell the GPU & enjoy your long-lasting, fast PC.

Wew, thank god I wasted only 100$.

if forza horizon 3 ends up being shit i'm probably going to drop gaymen altogether as i have no motivation to play anything anymore

Just play what you want. It's not a yes/no thing.

It's the only non shit racing franchise at this point, pretty sure it will deliver.

Also get a real sim if you want to race nigga.

i play assetto corsa time to time but i can only hot lap around the burger ring so many times before i get bored

I know, its called a hotlap simulator for a reason. If you dont mind the dated graphics, weird physics and retarded online pass get iracing. There's always someone to play with, clean racing only. Or get rfactor that still has a small community. Or GTR2 for offline racing with nice challenging AI, game is 10 years old tho.

i'm not really a fan of hardcore sims because they tend to not have any content, i know how to drive so the difficulty isn't an issue to me. i just be can't entertained by them, i really need a forza or gran turismo on pc. iracing seems interesting since it has an active online community but a subscription based game with 0 content isn't really something i fancy.

>because they tend to not have any content
That's the eternal problem with this genre, devs are too obsessed with autistic details and forget everything else. /o/'s /ovg/ might give you a hand in your quest.

i go on /ovg/ sometimes but it's slow as shit or people just shitpost about the mumble circle jerk, so eh. after the disappointment pCARS was after waiting for it after 3 years i don't really have much faith in the genre anymore.

>getting bored of gaymz or having buyer's regret for any rig you made yourself
sasuga ordinaries

Get BOINC
At least it'll be doing something with that extra power

Happened to 90% of people who built a gaming pc, me included
980 ti and I only play dota2

Yeah, no shit.
99% of games are boring as fuck once you're an adult.
You're just not the main target audience.

>tfw vita piracy
Time to play all that weebshit.

Games are fun as fuck, you faggots are just too picky.

Which games would that be?

Overwatch, Factorio, Dark Souls 3, StoneHearth

Has it been fully hacked yet?
What the fuck did Sony do that it still cant be hacked after all these years?

>why don't I have the motivation to keep playing games all the time?

It's called burning out. Do something else and you'll feel like gaming again in some time.
Sometimes I swear I'm just lecturing a bunch of kids.

If you are on Oceanic, I am am doing Aszuna. Join me!

Just curious, how old are you?

It's not hacked at the level of installing CFW but now you can pirate games.

27

I feel sorry for you needing to cope this much. Unlike you, the rerst of us lead happy and fulfilling lives without the need of video games distracting us from what is an ordinary existence.

you spent only 1.2k and you call yourself a gamer ?


FOR 1.2k YOU CAN BUY ONLY ONE VIDEOCARD geforce.com/hardware/10series/titan-x-pascal
BUT YOU SHOULD HAVE 4 OF THEM TO BE PC MASTER RACE

> just spent 100€ on new hard drive and some RAM
> a week later still haven't prepared for the next semester or the exams I still have to write because I'm too busy playing old games on my shitty 2010 laptop

I feel the same way OP. Have the urge to upgrade my 2500k rig to a 6600k but I know I won't play games enough on it to warrant it. It's mostly because I'm just not interested in the games that are coming out anymore.

Still want to play with big boy legos again.

>tfw upgraded my 2500k to a 2600k, with my old 2500k sold it only cost me around 40 bucks
>upgraded my 1333 mhz ram to 1866 mhz ram
>big battles in total war warhammer are now smooth as a babies arse where they first lagged like a piece of shit.
>running it with a 980ti

I feel sorry for people running high end graphics cards with shitty cpu's and slow ram

steven?

What you mean like yourself?

>Only a single 1080
>80Hz
>Only 1TB HDD and 250GB EVO
>Only 16GB RAM
>Most expensive ricer motherboard on market
>Most expensive gaymer CPU
>Expensive cooler and lots of fans
>3000Mhz RAM

You're an idiot and poor pretending not to be.

>tfw I haven't fallen for the new gaymer rig and have been playing on a 2004 toaster this whole time
>2.0ghz AMD processor, 2gb DDR2, Radeon HD 5570
>tfw I have some money saved up to either buy a rig or get a laptop instead for school
>tfw I can't even make a decision because I'm worried about wasting money on vidya

Try metal gear solid 5 or witcher 3. those will run like butter with your new pc and are fun AAA titles.

You're grasping at straws mate. You might want to calm down.

>Only a single 1080
SLI for what reason?
>80Hz
Point?
>Only 1TB HDD and 250GB EVO
Movies and music are stored on a NAS
>Only 16GB RAM
Implying I'm able to use than about 5 of that
>Most expensive ricer motherboard on market
That would be the Rampage.
>Most expensive gaymer CPU
That would be the 6950X
>Expensive cooler and lots of fans
All Noctua so it's silent
>3000Mhz RAM
You mirin'?

>SLI for what reason
Posting in guts threads like I know you already do.
>80Hz
It's pointless and dumb? The only reason to use refresh rates over 60 is if said refresh rate is 120+.
>NAS
Sure.
>Imply I'm able to use than about 5 of that
You won't use more than 50% of that 1080 but it didn't stop you.
>Rest of it
Splitting hairs or not worth replying to.

What do you work with? just learn unreal engine on it an start making games, lad!

every tick counts. 80 looks HUGELY better than 60, and the whole "diminishing return" thing is bullshit because 140 looks WAY better than 120

install gentoo

Dunno man, I doubt VNs and 2D indie games I normally play use more than 5% of the 1080 to be completely candid with you. It's why I was questioning the benefit of SLI. it's still nice to have though because it triggers people like you.

waifu2x.udp.jp/index.html

why does there need to be more than one

install gentoo on it

The only thing you're going to to use a 'laptop at school' for is checking email, making presentations when working on group assignments, and document writing in the library because you can't get shit done at home.

The way to go is 13 inch netbook, preferrably a type with external battery and 3rd party battery support, or a small keyboard if your phone is large enough.

Your school will have computers anyway unless you live in Africa. Oh wait. Africa called, even they have school computers now.
