I have a similar system I just retired(r7 3800x, 32gb, .5tb m.2+2tb m.2+4tb ssd, 4070ti super with a spare 2070 super), still works very well. Going to clean and put it back in its box til my new one becomes unusable, don't think I'll be buying another pc and I will NEVER use cloud gaming, no one should reward these ghouls for fucking us over especially Nvidia. Once all my old pcs stop working, if I am not dead yet, I will do like my childhood and read physical books and spend time out doors

ngl we should probably be doing that even if gaming PCs become super cheap ๐Ÿ˜… but gaming is too much fun dangit

Initially I was gonna sell it to someone that needed it, but when I got my new one I could see it was the last one I'd be able to afford unless something drastic happens in our favour. I am too old and cynical to think otherwise
