Did you actually bother to read the article?

Antisemitism

No

Title explains everything you need to know.

Anyone else sad when building a new PC? Like you are attached to the old one emotionally

You can still keep the old one around you know.

Step aside plebs, the king of monitors is here

Kind of a waste if I dont use it better sell it or give it away

I don't think I ever discarded a whole build, I often take older parts. Last time though it was just the GPU and the storage and I bought a GPU that's arriving in a few weeks.

27 inch vs 28 inch 4k monitor?

32"

Too big

any news on Intel GPUs, particularly the high end ones like the 770? Is performance still believed comparable to a 3070?

No I fucking hate my build. Giant heavy fuck

you can't take an extra 4 inches?

I just upgrade parts in my pc. One day I'll upgrade the gpu, a year or so later I'll upgrade the cpu. Maybe a few months later I see a new case I like so I move it into that, etc.
