It's become increasingly obvious that my hardware isn't very good. I've always felt lingering regret for getting this PC. It's done a good job for about a year that I've had it, but it's gotten this outdated so fast that I'm in a panic.
Getting an upgrade isn't an option because I can't afford it, and the people I live with simply don't trust me to install a new CPU. That's what my PC actually needs... a new CPU. The graphics card is fine and pretty solid, I just need a new CPU. I want to get an AMD CPU, since I rather not fund the stupid gaming monopoly giant of Intel. The people I live with might be willing to let me get the CPU if we can pay Geek Squad at Best Buy to install it. I might get a new CPU cooler too, because this current ons is pretty ridiculous and insanely difficult to install to begin with. But, I don't have the money for any of this. It costs $100.00 alone for Geek Squad to tinker with your PC, and nearly $200.00 for one of the best AMD FX CPUs.
This is really bad. I am in a panic. What if I can't even run Fallout 4 well? What if I can't run Doom well? I can't even run SOMA well, and that game has really low system requirements! I am at a dead end as a PC gamer, and I am starting to feel the hurt of having a low income!! I don't want to play AAA games on console, especially Doom!! I love PC gaming!! But at this rate, there is nothing I can do, I am doomed! Games are advancing too fast, their requirements are getting too huge for my pathetic hardware to handle.
I am pretty doomed as a PC gamer. No one is willing to buy a CPU for me and then install it, because no one in their right mind is willing to do that. No one is willing to donate money to help me get new stuff either. So I am stuck, and I am going to have to suffer subpar performance with low settings that do nothing to improve performance. Because after a year, games have already gotten too ridiculous.
There is nothing I can do.
My current hardware:
1600x900 monitor with 60Hz refresh rate
Windows 10 64-bit
AMD R9 270X 2GB
AMD A-10 7850K 4 cores 3.7ghz
8GB RAM
