Age and PC specs
Hi Guys, I've been playing Apex Legends for a couple of months now, and first of all congrats for such a cool and addictive game! I will be the first to admit that I'm a lousy player. I'm 50 years ...
No matter what you do now or in the future, always remember, that when hardware comes out, most things, inculding games do not take advantage of them.
So there's no point in buying the top line hardware if whatever you're going to be doing is not going to take advantage of them, it's just a waste of money, and most people throw away money not realizing it.
So like you considering that RAM upgrade, you really need to read specs on what you plan on doing if it's going to really matter, and with RAM the upgrade will only be small percentages...
It's like me at the present owning a GTX 1060 6GB and the 1660ti just came out, and upgrading to this is only a small change, so buying a 1660ti just to get a new card with some changes, it's not worth it, this is a perfect example...
Thanks. I agree. I only build/upgrade a new PC every 5, 6 or more years. About 6 years ago I bought a Z77X-UP7 motherboard which I didn't even overclock. Having said that I also bought the 3770K which was becoming fairly old by then. By the time I had built that build (I bought a part every couple of months and watched them pile up by my desk) it was about 18 months old.
I believe in the concepts in this non-computer related video: watch?v=TIjvXtZRerY (paste it on YouTube. I don't want to spam.) When it comes to computer parts however, to truly be worthy and happy in this world - WE NEED THE BEST! Just kidding.. mostly..
