You gotta Noctua on that thang
I completed a build a couple of months ago:
- ASRock X670E Steel Legend
- Ryzen 7 7800X3D
- 128 GB of G.Skill Trident Z5 Neo
- Nvidia RTX 4090 Founders Edition
- Bunch of NVMe storage
- Fractal Design Meshify 2
I mostly emulate stuff or play 2D games, otherwise I’m working through my boomer shooter backlog.
Damn, Fire Emblem: 6 runs great on my beefy computer!
graphics card dies
Heyyyy, FE6, you’re the only one still with me…
I’ve been playing LeafGreen on my PSP, almost ready to take on the elite four.
Something about GBA on a PSP just feels right. That was my first emulation handheld, recently found a nice condition original thicc model and jail breaking that thing has been so simplified. I remember needing a paperclip last time I did that
Stardew Valley runs great on my 1080
me with my gaming PC just playing factorio all day
emulators make my laptop heat up like crazy
4090 playing osrs and poke rom hacks
I got myself a cheap emulation handheld and haven’t booted up my PC since July. If it doesn’t fall apart, it would take me years to finish what I have stored on it.

Do you not need to do like… productivity stuff?
I don’t have a computer toucher job
I had a period of like 2 years where I mostly played GBA, SNES, and PSX games on one - super fun. A slightly bigger one with more ergonomic controls and maybe PS2 and NGC support would be perfect
I really appreciate the steam deck for that
low spec toasters high spec super computers
playing gba roms
The GBA had a fantastic library!
My Lenin-given PC specs are there for math. And 3D modelling.
Just emulate from your phone. It’s super easy.
this gonna be me in a week when my 9800x3d gets delivered
Gaming attained perfection in 1998.
Common misconception—Hamtaro: Ham-Ham Games released in 2004
That era was a sweet spot because developers had enough power for complex games and decent graphics, but limited enough that they couldn’t drown their art department in graphics fidelity.
I think most people would argue that at least when it comes to console games, the peak was attained a little later, in the PS2 era
I need the specs for playing Minecraft 😤
