Wow. That was quite the response. OP, sorry that your thread has been somewhat taken off course.
ProEnigma, you seem to have taken my post as some kind of personal attack judging by your vitriolic reply. You’re right, my point of view is not always correct. I’m in a long term relationship so I’m very painfully aware of that fact 😁
But there’s no need to get angry at me just for having my opinion. Personal attacks have no place on the forum.
I will admit I probably am wrong when I said 98% of games you’d see no difference. Due to the vast historical amount of titles available on Steam, Epic, GOG etc... I imagine it’s actually closer to 99%
Therein lies the problem... when I’m making recommendations for a GPU to match with a monitor I cannot base it upon a select few wildcard titles that are designed to bring a system to it’s knees, which is the argument you bring to the table every time. And I’m really sorry that you don’t like that but until I get admonished by a site moderator or admin for doing that, I will continue to do so.
(There is one caveat. A very particular type of gamer/user may get some benefit of a card that seems overpowered, but I’m betting that type of person will already know that and will incorporate it into their forum post. Chances are... that type of person knows their stuff and doesn’t need to post in the first place. If they do create a thread and I learn something new in the process, brilliant, everyone’s a winner!)
As for your final paragraph, I’ve never once told you or anyone here that they can’t have something, I’m genuinely puzzled where that statement has come from. The only person I say that to is the cat when she’s trying to steal food off my plate.
I simply try to offer the best advice I can to ensure that anyone I help ends up with the most well rounded system for their money and requirements. Which is why the first questions asked are always ‘budget, uses, monitor?’
I’ve had some extremely positive responses to my suggestions and thoughts in my relatively short time on the forum, I’m sorry that you feel differently.
There ends the sermon, apologies again to the OP for the derailment of the thread 🙂👍
