1st Gen. Lunch Table - General Discussion

Ouch. Sounds like no friction material left...well unless metal on metal counts

 

They make little n100/150 solid state drive computers for a few hundred unless you need blazing speed and video for gaming.

 

I'd want it for gaming. I have a laptop but it's not going to run much of anything other than solitaire.

 

That's a lot of GPU power, unless she's really hardcore, I can tell you after making the dive last year on finally upgrading away from my MSI RX590, I picked up a MSI Radeon RX 6600 XT MECH 2X OC 8GB, and it plays every game I cold possibly want. It kept choking on BG3 whenever there was a lot of mist/fag in the cut scenes and crap, or during combat (someone would use something with smoke/gas effects), and that prompted the upgrade.

These 6600 XT, at least with the MECH OC (OverClock) versions are pretty damn powerful and rank really well. When I picked mine up, it was ranked something like #35 out of all the cards on the market at the time. Is there better? Suuuure. But I also liked paying $265 out the door for a brand new sealed-box card than $750+ for a 9070. (I agree with bailing on nVidia, though, the 5070-5090 cards are chumpy)

Damn, I've had these two gaming rigs sitting downstairs for the kids, we built them together like 5 years ago but they've never used them. I'm tempted to sell them but they'd probably give me hell if I did...

But the card is a little dated, MSI nVidia GTX 970
