    It’s unaffordable for those who don’t sail the high seas and buy a new rig every year. I have one that’s probably more than 5 years old by now and the only games I retrieve don’t require the latest and greatest. Plus, there are games more than a decade old with good graphics. Things haven’t gotten terribly better since. This channel regularly showcases some.

      Those are some great examples of old games that are real lookers, but quite frankly, I’m on a 5-year-old machine, and there are only a few of the latest games that have made it break a sweat. It runs most of the cutting edge games at high settings, high frame rates, and 1440p.
