I wouldn't be building anything ever again.

I don't have the passion for custom PC's anymore. The generational leaps aren't their anymore either.
As you get older gaming isn't as fun either.
I'm still running a 970 and it's fine. It's not running 4k but what really is? And is it That much of a better experience. Nah.

I spend most of my time playing Marvel Puzzle Quest on my phone:mjlol:

So I just upgraded my storage and added a 1TB Samsung SSD.

I spent months off and on trying to fix Assassin's Creed Origins to make it stutter free since I first bought it. I eventually gave up and just deleted it a couple of weeks ago to make space for other games. I already had my OS on a SSD but my games on a HDD (don't judge me, I had to prioritize when I first built all of this :damn:). Anyway, so I just re-installed the game on the new SSD and it literally has not stuttered once... I mean, I heard some games run better on SSD but I did not expect this :why: I know these AssCreed games are still considered unoptimized mess so I just never considered this a factor. :snoop:

I'm not saying this is the fix for other people but I assure you this is not placebo. I'm testing this shyt in Alexandria right now and getting around 90FPS stable @1440p which I never got before so it's just some food for thought for people.

I'll probably test Metro Exodus after because that was the only other game that ran like trash on my system.

EDIT: Yup that game is fixed too :sadcam:

You lost for playing AC, but good for you on getting on the SSD wave fully.

How do you guys decide when to replace hard drives? I have hard drives and ssds in my system that are 5 years old.
