Mine is a second hand work horse which is over a decade old. Share your embarrassment with me

Phil

Haha mine is only a couple of years ago from uni. Works great for gaming

Well I don't even own a new pc so I can't complain play this round

Oh post a pic when you are next home

I left mine at my exes. I'd rather not go back for it. Sad face

That is the part most people skip over. What I find interesting is what it chooses not to include as much as what it does.

Really good thread this
GG no re

Yeah that sounds about right. Can't really go wrong with it.

The browser is often the biggest resource hog on most machines

That is the conclusion most people land on eventually. The problem with most advice online is it assumes a clean install which most machines are not.

Should sort it if the basics are fine

ElPresidente

That is exactly the lesson I learned. Good luck with it. :P

Cannot disagree with that. The best sides find ways to win ugly and that matters more than the style of play.

We will know soon enough

There is something true in that that is hard to articulate. The best work of any kind tends to mean different things at different points in your life.

Glad this came up
It's only banter... mostly

I tried that and the catch was not obvious until afterwards. The problem with most money saving advice is it assumes you have the time to do it all.

Worth doing even if the saving is small
Football is life. Everything else is just details.

Makes sense to me. Good to hear other people's experience

Feels like the right read on it. I will keep following it

Myles

The way this has been framed in the media does not quite match the underlying detail. Worth watching closely

codeberg

That is the conclusion most people land on eventually. Happy to help further if you get stuck

No real argument from me on that. Form matters but so does the matchup and that gets ignored a lot.

Still think I am right on this.

Software bloat is half the problem and it gets worse with every update
It's not a bug, it's a feature
