one thing consoles have going for them is consistency. As a pc gamer with a pretty bad midrange pc i wouldnt mind hitting the same framerate as everyone else, rather than chugging along at 30 whilst other players are hitting 200fps.... not that it matters too much tbh , 30 is fine for most things when youre used to it and its a solid stable 30.

Buy some indie games. There's lots of games that run beautifully on low-end hardware and are (in my opinion) much more fun than most AAA games. Trine 1 and 2 run very well even on integrated graphics (I played them on an Intel HD 3000) and if you have a friend or sibling to play the game with you really won't regret buying it.
same lol I used to have a crappy HP business laptop with an i3 cpu and when I wanted to play a game I would play it on 540p low - medium settings at around 28 FPS. Now I have a legion Y540 with an actual graphics card and now I can run games at 1080p 80-120FPS
That's exactly what's happening with me I have a old ass pc with GMA 3100 and intel core 2 duo that's basically junk and can't run any game that's newer then the early 2000's meanwhile my phone is much newer Motorola Droid Ultra from 2013 lol.
**scrolling games on steam** Oh this looks good, a nice 2d turn-based rpg. Let's see here... **checks minimum requirements for lols** Oh... I need a quantum computer.
I fucking hate this bullshit. Games with minimalist graphics require a fucking gtx 550 ti. Superhot is basically composed of low-polygon graphics and require a GODDAMN gtx 650. seriously
In my experience is if you're using a flagship xx80Ti graphics card you still end up wanting more performance and there is no hardware to cater until the next generation releases.
The Hunter Actually,no,720p was available for a very long time,even in 2004 when I got my first serious PC monitors at 1280x1024 were popular and laptops had 1280x800 at least
Just 1 example: Hearts of Iron IV CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q9400 @ 2.66 GHz / AMD Athlon II X4 650 @ 3.20 RAM: 4 GB Dedicated Video RAM: 1024 MB My laptop from about the Stone age, can run the game with about 18 fps average. Laptop specs in a nutshell: Intel pentium dual core with 1.5Ghz 2GB ram 64mb dedicated Video ram.

My gtx 980 lagged as hell on VR, ended up getting a 1080ti. Idk how you managed to get your 760 to work so well because my gt 740 wasn't even able to play rocket league decently
In person, yeah, but seeing the difference on this video really depends on whether or not you can use 720p60+ (my laptop can only handle 480p, interesting how my iPhone 4 can use 720p60 just fine XD. That's why it's my side compy.) In person, I can easily see the difference between 60fps and 30fps. 60fps is soooo good in my opinion. It's so buttery smooth.
From my experience, since my computer doesn't meet minimum system requirements for new games I can say that they are not accurate. If you play around with config files you can make the game playable and raise fps even if you barely or don't meet minimum requirements. Just have fun with your pc and files, tinker a little and you'll be surprised. You can always Google if you don't understand something.
People who need way more than 60fps and 1440p resolution to play smoothly are just greedy. But tbh I know if you move to better smoothness it's hard for your mind to go back enjoying lesser smoothness.
GreenDev there's virtually no detectable difference post 60 fps. Really the only true benefit to having higher than 60 fps is to match your monitors refresh rate and or have buffer room for sudden fps drops.
Maybe game developers could list 3 tiers of requirements: -Minimum: bare minimum requirements for the game to run. -Recommended: requirements to run the game at 1080p60fps with high settings in-game. -Ultra: requirements to run the game at 4K60+fps/VR with all in-game settings on max/ultra.
Does it even run properly on reccomended specs? Or how about Planetside 2? Minimum specs are quite decent for the game, but depending on the situation (Multiplayer!) even a top notch machine will ffall under 60 fps at minimum settings.
LOL Ark survival evolved minimum specs: Processor: 2 GHz Dual-Core 64-bit CPU. Memory: 4000 MB RAM. Graphics: DirectX11 Compatible GPU with 1 GB Video RAM. I'm sure that's one of those cases of.... Yeah it will get into the game... and you can walk around at 15 fps, run at 7fps and ride a dino Powerpoint style. All this at marvelous 720p HD and extremely shitty textures!
there is no game more expensive than a pc unless its sims 4, modern paradox games, or any game with DLC (not counting other microtransactions like coins) sims 4 dlc is so much it actually costed MORE than my original pc, now with upgrades and stuff its only 80$ less...
I started gaming on a PC with a $450 laptop. It was only able to run the Elder Scrolls V at 20fps (When I was lucky) on the lowest settings, but the game was still playable ( for me at least). It was also able to run The Witcher at about 40fps on medium to low settings. Based on this I purchased older AAA games, newer indie games, or games that weren't graphically intensive.
I broke my laptop when I got mad. I threw it and then punched a hole in the screen; it had a 3rd generation intel microprocessor with integrated graphics... god it was so bad
Vaerdu No, the computer was shit to begin with. And how in the fuck are you supposed to maintain a laptop that’s out of date? You can’t upgrade it. I mean the fuck do you want me to do? I had antivirus software on it. I wiped it so I could get rid of all the random background programs eating at my RAM. If that’s what you mean by maintaining it, then that’s what I did. The fact that you are saying I’m an idiot for having a laptop that doesn’t work good just proves how ignorant you really are.
Vaerdu It’s fine, I kind of overreacted. It was pretty stupid that I broke it though. Right now, I’m using an Xbox one and a phone because I am building a pc next week :) I like laptops more personally as they are portable but they don’t have the power to price ratio that a self build pc does.
@@thatgreenguy244 Well for the longest I was very low spec and did everything to get newer games to run on older hardware. Heck I used to run PUBG at around 360p.
It means you can play with 1 FPS. Really unhelpful because I tried to play Counter-Strike on my Pink Acer laptop Windows XP and I couldn't even jump it was so laggy.
mhh very strange.. i am below the min requirments and i still get 40+fps on the lowest settings (1280x1024) and it is a very playable experience Gpu -asus GT 610 1gb(usualy at 70-85% usage ,overclocked) CPU- Celeron e3400 dual core (1mb cache,constantly at 100%) wich is below the min specs ram - 4gb ddr3
Played Dota 2 on Celeron 430 (1 core, 1.8 GHz) and 3 GB DDR2. Also, tried to play HL2 on MX400 with 1,5 GB DDR, played DMC4 on mentioned Celeron w/ Radeon X1600. Now that pc has Celeron E3300 (yes, still 775) with GDDR5 GT730 and same 3 GB DDR2. Actually, it was 4 GB. But just for like 15 minutes because then module just melt. Literally. Memory chips melt. That wasn't short circuit - store's warranty center told me that it happened because of overclocking (on Q35 chipset and Gigabyte bios, sure thing). Even while it "worked", it did so in a strange way: "4,00 GB (3,00 GB available)". That mb supported assymetric dual-channel and was in really good condition (except southern bridge. It melt down too because noone cared about it's thermal interface and i wasn't acknowledged enough about that). Is that equal enough?
For several years, I managed to get by with nothing but Intel integrates graphics, even for slightly newer games. Nearly everything on low settings would run at less than 30 FPS, and I was perfectly ok with it.
I got radeon 7770 paired with phenom 955 and I can play any game on that shit. Just install game and try. If it's kinda bad experience just plug in another radeon 7770 and eureka( some games doesn't work with 2 graphics cards that's why I'm trying to keep only in )
Back when I bought my Oculus rift I had an i7-2600K which worked great! I have an i9-9900K now, but I'm glad I ignored their minimums when I first bought it. Had a blast!
2:24 For example, PC Building Simulator says the minimum GPU to play it is a GTX 660, but you can get away with HD Graphics 4000 and play at an OK framerate (at least by my standards, which aren't super high).

On PC the cheapest way is to buy used GPU's, as long as they aren't overpriced due to bitcoin mining that is. I use to double - quadruple my GPU power every two years for around $100.
I couldn't notice that I was playing at 30 fps until I bought my first gaming PC with a dedicated GPU. Now I see FPS drops everywhere. Thank you, PC Masterrace, I hate it.
My old laptop is the reason that I found out that one of my favorite games runs at 144p. Even at 144p it still ran at about 6ish fps, but that's not the point, *It Ran*.
I can vouch for this method of using mainstream parts, I have a refurbished Optiplex 7010, an i5 3570, and an rx 570 , and i got the pc for $300 and the video card for $140
and in some games, they post minimum requirments that can get you ultra at 1080p devil may cry 5 minimum requirements, Graphics: NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 760 or AMD Radeon™ R7 260x with 2GB Video RAM, or better

Just pirate the game, and if it doesn't run no loss
But if it does, Then buy the game to support the developers

3:49 If you seriously can't see the difference between 30fps and 60fps here. You are better off selling your eyes on ebay!
well you need to be watching the video at 720p60 or 1080p60 to see the difference lol
Except both of those clips were running at 60FPS on consoles, soo...
IDIOT NOOB you have to turn it to 720p 60fps
Who the hell would buy your filthy casual eyes when an import set can see well over 120hz and can be overclocked with better eyelids?
In person, yeah, but seeing the difference on this video really depends on whether or not you can use 720p60+ (my laptop can only handle 480p, interesting how my iPhone 4 can use 720p60 just fine XD. That's why it's my side compy.) In person, I can easily see the difference between 60fps and 30fps. 60fps is soooo good in my opinion. It's so buttery smooth.

From my experience, since my computer doesn't meet minimum system requirements for new games I can say that they are not accurate. If you play around with config files you can make the game playable and raise fps even if you barely or don't meet minimum requirements.
Just have fun with your pc and files, tinker a little and you'll be surprised. You can always Google if you don't understand something.
You're right... Though not every game have detailed config files
For me 720p it's a high resolution

People who need way more than 60fps and 1440p resolution to play smoothly are just greedy. But tbh I know if you move to better smoothness it's hard for your mind to go back enjoying lesser smoothness.
For me its different 144hz to 60hz.

GreenDev there's virtually no detectable difference post 60 fps. Really the only true benefit to having higher than 60 fps is to match your monitors refresh rate and or have buffer room for sudden fps drops.
This happened to me with ARK: surival evolved, definitely no playable with minimun requirements :'c
That game still has issues, like memory leaking that managed to crash my computer.
That game isn't even playable on gtx 1060

Maybe game developers could list 3 tiers of requirements:
-Minimum: bare minimum requirements for the game to run.
-Recommended: requirements to run the game at 1080p60fps with high settings in-game.
-Ultra: requirements to run the game at 4K60+fps/VR with all in-game settings on max/ultra.
there's barely a hardware available for your "ultra". unless it's an old game/game with undemanding graphics
the 1080 ti can run everything on ultra at 4k 60fps fine. Not sure about VR though

there is no game more expensive than a pc

I started gaming on a PC with a $450 laptop. It was only able to run the Elder Scrolls V at 20fps (When I was lucky) on the lowest settings, but the game was still playable ( for me at least). It was also able to run The Witcher at about 40fps on medium to low settings. Based on this I purchased older AAA games, newer indie games, or games that weren't graphically intensive.

I broke my laptop when I got mad. I threw it and then punched a hole in the screen; it had a 3rd generation intel microprocessor with integrated graphics... god it was so bad
Vaerdu No, the computer was shit to begin with. And how in the fuck are you supposed to maintain a laptop that’s out of date? You can’t upgrade it. I mean the fuck do you want me to do? I had antivirus software on it. I wiped it so I could get rid of all the random background programs eating at my RAM. If that’s what you mean by maintaining it, then that’s what I did. The fact that you are saying I’m an idiot for having a laptop that doesn’t work good just proves how ignorant you really are.
Vaerdu It’s fine, I kind of overreacted. It was pretty stupid that I broke it though. Right now, I’m using an Xbox one and a phone because I am building a pc next week :) I like laptops more personally as they are portable but they don’t have the power to price ratio that a self build pc does.

720p is fine. Switch is 720 and everyone likes the switch. But i can't use anything lower than that
@@thatgreenguy244 Well for the longest I was very low spec and did everything to get newer games to run on older hardware. Heck I used to run PUBG at around 360p.

Do you cover the minimum specs ? or atleast are you close to them ?
wait.. is he talking about the 1.6 version... that runs on anything after 2007
helptheinnocent andhelpless pls halp, i m going to buy gtx 1050 and idk if is it worth it
Listen here, I played crysis on a laptop with 2GB ram and 1.8Ghz intel i3. Beat my poverty in PC gaming.
Played Dota 2 on Celeron 430 (1 core, 1.8 GHz) and 3 GB DDR2. Also, tried to play HL2 on MX400 with 1,5 GB DDR, played DMC4 on mentioned Celeron w/ Radeon X1600.
Now that pc has Celeron E3300 (yes, still 775) with GDDR5 GT730 and same 3 GB DDR2. Actually, it was 4 GB. But just for like 15 minutes because then module just melt. Literally. Memory chips melt. That wasn't short circuit - store's warranty center told me that it happened because of overclocking (on Q35 chipset and Gigabyte bios, sure thing). Even while it "worked", it did so in a strange way: "4,00 GB (3,00 GB available)". That mb supported assymetric dual-channel and was in really good condition (except southern bridge. It melt down too because noone cared about it's thermal interface and i wasn't acknowledged enough about that).
Is that equal enough?
For several years, I managed to get by with nothing but Intel integrates graphics, even for slightly newer games. Nearly everything on low settings would run at less than 30 FPS, and I was perfectly ok with it.
If you can tell the difference between 1080p and 4K, you’re tripping
I've played Wolfenstein 2 with below min spec machine on medium-high settings and could still get 60FPS, minimum requirements don't mean shit anymore.
Dizzee did u play with 144p?
I am having a thought to buy this game. Is it worth buying or its just a time waste ?
Khalid Jamil Worth it with a good pc
1080p actually, FX 6300, 1050 Ti
I got radeon 7770 paired with phenom 955 and I can play any game on that shit. Just install game and try. If it's kinda bad experience just plug in another radeon 7770 and eureka( some games doesn't work with 2 graphics cards that's why I'm trying to keep only in )

On PC the cheapest way is to buy used GPU's, as long as they aren't overpriced due to bitcoin mining that is. I use to double - quadruple my GPU power every two years for around $100.
