When do y'all figure manufacturers will realize we don't want to trade PC gaming for "AI" horseshit?

50% of the wealth in America is now owned by the top 1%, they can effectively ignore what we want and turn a more reliable profit, that is, of course, until the bubble pops.

...of course, until the ~~bubble pops~~ guillotine appears.

FTFY.

Generally speaking, people aren't spending right now. The surface tension on that bubble is almost maxed out. I doubt most of these data centers will be built before the paradigm is forced to shift back to a more decentralized model... I hope....

I also hope so

But your masters do, so you will live without gaming PC. Enjoy subscription streaming gaming from now on.

Well my pc plays great a lot of older games up to 2020. My backlog is big and I bet there is a huge number of games which are unknown to me, that I will enjoy if I discover them. My rx6600 may struggle with 1440p sometimes, but I can always go back to 1080p. Almost all new games are trash anyway, so not a huge loss.
