Just think abou that :

If you want a modern PC, Windows 11 is nearly here, so can't be lower than an Intel 7th, them you would want a good GPU, and you look at the prices... them think about memory, storage, good monitor, etc.

But... this is not the end, you need to buy games too...

Them you think, I will buy a videogame console instead... but you can't use the Internet on a console as fluently as with a PC, so you will be forced to use two different tools for to two different tasks, you will need a PC and a console.

And it is because of all this that I dropped the consoles first and them the desktop PC, I bought a notebook with a weak integrated GPU, which is enough, at least to play old games that I "like", (actually I no longer like games, they are waste of time, illusion).

Time ago I deleted my Steam, Origin, accounts, full of original purchased games, lots of them, now if I want a game, I download a pirate version, off course this don't work for online games, but if I want to play an online game, there is a lot of free to play games around.

Anyway, don't make sense anymore, games are for 15 years old, and why waste so much money ? Computers, even being powerful, seem ineffective, all this huge paraphernalia, even a notebook or a mobile phone is good enough to play several games, they are small, simple and effective, you have Internet, games, productivity, etc.

The next step is ditch Windows from my notebook, I only don't jumped ship to Android on my Notebook via Android X86, because it don't run the The Word Bible software, that is excellent for my need, if not, bye bye Windows, maybe bye bye Notebook too. But the problem for me, that smartphones are very traceable, and I hate that, maybe if I physically damage some antenna inside it, etc, anyway...

Is it just me who got tired and gave up on this world of PCs, powerful hardware, consoles, paid games, etc ?

Not if the case was an AMD CPU from 2010 or earlier, I jumped from a PC Phenom II 1090T to a notebook Intel i5 8250u and the performance difference is gigantic, my notebook gives a beating on the CPU part, but loses on the GPU part, because it is now integrated Intel HD 620, in the PC I had a Radeon HD 6850 1GB. I don't like Linux, it's light but not that much, it's overrated, and always has one problem or another, it's not intuitive and doesn't run the software I like.
