Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.

Rules

1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

6. No linking to piracy

Don't share it here, there are other places to find it. Discussion of piracy is fine.

We don't want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.

In a new interview, PlayStation’s top business executive defended the decision, insisting the company had to “adjust” to market conditions.

I would like to welcome the many many many new PC players who will be abandoning consoles

The rough equivalent of the PS5 GPU (~40 CUs of RDNA2) is the RX6700 XT at ~300 dollars. Pricing has not been great but let's not exaggerate lol

Wow my 5700 XT was $600 lol. God prices were garbage back in the day.

[–] BudgieMania@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

2019/2020 was a poor year from a price/longevity perspective, yeah. All of us who got a GPU around those days didn't necessarily get the best deal. I'm satisfied with what I got out of my 3060Ti but I feel that many wouldn't be.

I don't mention 2021 because, well, you know, it's not like you could even find one so

[–] Heratiki@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

Yup I still have that 5700XT and it’s perfectly capable for nearly every game I enjoy today. I haven’t seen a reason to upgrade just yet.
