You are correct, I never said this new PC was cheap, but then I still have PC's I bought over 10 years ago doing various duties around the house. So you see, I buy for the looonnnngggg run and recycle the older PC's to other purposes when I replace them with newer PC's.
Since this is my main hobby since I'm retired now and WOFF UE is my main game, I have kept upgrading throughout the years until I have finally reached my goal of a constant 60 FPS (Flanders, Spring 1918) with maxed out settings so I can enjoy the game in all it's glory.
But then each and every person has to decide themselves what they want and what they are willing to spend (be it time, energy, resources, etc.) to achieve their goal.
