My GTX 960 4gb was 266 dollars ON SALE!

There is no loving way I could make a computer with less than 100 dollars of other stuff because my RAM is 16GB which was 66 dollars, also on sale.

So how the forget am I going to make the other half of the computer with less than 18 dollars?

read my post above

now if you can make a computer for $350 or less that meets no man's sky minimum requirements i'll believe you

here's a pc that will outperform the ps4 at a little more than your price point ($439) but considering I bought my PS4 for $428 including tax it's similar value

(heads up if you don't know, the GTX 950 is better than the GTX 480)

http://hwbench.com/vgas/geforce-gtx-480-vs-geforce-gtx-950

using an average of 8000 user benchmarks: http://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Nvidia-GTX-950-vs-Nvidia-GTX-480/3510vs3157

still a 21% overall performance increase in the 950

jesus christ i hate this mindset

good gaming computers are around $1000 while a ps4 is like, what, $300 - $350? not everyone wants to spend a thousand dollars to play a few video games
besides the fact some people might want to have a console so their siblings / children can use it, play games with them and their pals, or just enjoy playing a video game on a big television

you act like people aren't allowed to be upset because they didn't spend more money

ehh, my 2011 system ($600 back then) still stuffs on the ps4 and now the computer would prob be valued around 400


also the gtx 480 is not $500 worth, it's like $80-$100 it's just that high valued because of its rarity (it's out of production)

tiles are in the toilet, all three of the holes are leaking, and the shower is filled with rubble
