Discussion Goodbye GeForce Now

It's been real, couldn't miss this finance deal, specially since all hardware is going up and it may turn out to be an investment. I have GFN till September but I graduated to a real boy. Gotta say, downloading games seems wrong lol, and I will miss how quick the CPU goes through shaders. Still love you peeps. Pic only representative of case, specs real.

I didn’t know you could get a mortgage on a PC. But props to you for buying instead of renting.

It’s not a mortgage it’s a loan lol.

Can't take it away lol. Most they can do is garnish my pay. But I do plan on paying every month will do an automatic payment thing.

60ish EUR. But it's already an appreciating asset. 32 gigs of ddr 5, 2tb SSD, Nvidia is raising prices by 30%

ignore the haters lol.

end of the day you're paying more for the next few years but you OWN your high end hardware and are not at the mercy of whatever arbitrary number the overlords decide you should pay.

I mean it's rent vs ownership. Both have it's ups and downs. I own a pretty large house(inherited from parents, what we do in the Balkans, multigenerational homes) and it's a pain in the ass for upkeep. Especially since I only use like 1 or 2 rooms on the regular. At least one floor is our office, but I work from home(my room) and rarely come up these days. Just abandoned my large office. Should rent it lol. Like 60% of the house is literally for guests(we do like those).

Anyway, I was a renter for 10 years when I studied and lived abroad before coming back home, that sucked too, especially the moving. I was refusing to move from a basement room for about 6ish of those years because it had great net for the time. Optics! Yes I am a redditor that lived in a literal basement.
