I have lost count of how many tweets ive seen of this level today. Definitely around 10. I keep saying this but people are graphics whores. It's just who we are as people. Men love pretty women and beautiful looking cars. Hell, women are even more shallow. Everyone wants next gen visuals. Everyone.

The moment you hand them the price tag most people switch to "this old stuff looks great I don´t need more than that" though.
Everyone likes shiny graphics but most don`t value it high enough to accept the price.

You just need to build your own. The ram is the big one but microcenter has been having bundle sales where you can get a 9800x3d, mobo and 32gb of ddr5 ram for around $650. And that cpu is overkill. you can easily save $100 going with a 7800x3d or $200 going with a cheaper CPU.
5070s were going for $500 last christmas. Just get that and play at 1440p. I believe the SSD prices have gone up recently, but i bought 2 TB last year for $120. it will probably be double that right now. 5070 Tis are way too overpriced for the performance profile. I paid the same price for a 5080 just 6 months ago. I knew these GPUs were only going to get more expensive so i just put it on my bestbuy credit card and i now have 2 years to pay it off lol.
For like $1.5k, you can build yourself a pretty good machine. Dont ever buy prebuilt. Just buy the parts and have a local computer repair shop build it for you for like $100-200 dollars.

So far games released after RE2 had great HDR (RE3 is PERFECT).
I still don't have access to RE9...

a 4080 is significantly stronger than a 5070. The 5070ti is the "real" 70 card this gen because Nvidia castrated the other one.

5070 only has 12 gb. and is roughly 40% slower than your 4080.
i play everything in hdr. but i only have windows 10 which doesnt have system level calibration. games still look good so i dont really care.

Don't you have raised blacks?

i saw something about the latest drivers a week before re9 came out. the driver was officially pulled from the nvidia app but i guess a lot of people already upgraded to the latest drivers. Apparently nvidia was boasting about using AI to write their code and well, there were go. MS has also had a lot of issues with their latest windows updates after saying 30% of their code is now done with AI.
IBM is the only normal company in all of this. They've been hiring software engineers after realizing that AI is a scam especially since it hallucinates at least 20% of the time. Their stock took a hit last week after Claude added COBOL support but its just dumb idiots buying into the AI hype. you will always need software engineers and QA engineers when it comes to managing these massive and complex systems.

I was fortunate enough to buy a PC before the AI bubble fully hit. Otherwise I'd be fucked.
Don't think AI is necessarily a scam but it is incredibly fucking STUPID to have a LLM write your drivers...

Yep. I captured this image on the Pro and on my LG OLEG TV.
We've finally reached the point where I don't feel I have to make compromises by buying games on the Pro over my PC because I want to play on my couch.

It's because we're so close to that finish line I keep talking about. The one where nearly every game has path tracing with 60fps. Every console just needs to collectively get there together so that the playing field is even.
Then if these companies want to slow down generations after that moment, then sure why not. After that moment it would be small increments anyway.
We just need to get there first. It's so close.
