From what I hear GPUs will have a pretty big jump.
4K right now is possible, but it's pretty expensive and requires SLI for newer games.  
Plus 4K monitors/Tvs will become better quality and cheaper.  
Hopefully!

This technology needs to advance.

Quote from: Kerotan on Aug 18, 2015, 09:33 PMToo many people to quote.  I was just saying the 500 euro I save not buying a rig will keep me going for years considering ps plus games on ps3/ps4, psn flash sales and normal sales.  

However we're deviating from my original point.  66% of PC gamers dont even play at 1080p. The very loud minority gave me a very false impression considering 0.4% only play at 4k. They're a lot of liars and bulshitters out there.  

For the record I've an alienware that plays games at 1080p so this ain't some hit and run. Just getting the facts out there.

But why does it matter when majority are playing MMOs or MOBAs which really isnt topside when it comes to needing 1080p o.O.

I know plenty of people that I played MMOs with for years that are on Steam (some on my friends list) that have no other game but DOTA2 lol. Even people with toasters can play DOTA2 ;o.

So is the point you're making to undermine the PC fanbase?

Shifts uncomfortably

I actually got steam just to play Dota 2. I was a big fan of the first game.

If by undermine you mean to point out the majority of PC players dont have a powerful PC then yeah.  Sure,  I'm mining right under them!

DOTA2 is my 2nd most played game - no plans of returning to it.

150 hours down the drain :P!

I don't think I have 1k in any game. Maybe gt5 and that's a big maybe.

Skyrim is probably 500 hours for me, on PC and PS3 total.

I've around 3,000 hours on mw2. So glad I'm not addicted to anyone game anymore.  Those were dark days.  Variety is the spice of life!

I don't want to spend that long on a game because my backlog is too large.

The thing is back then I didn't have a backlog because I never bought any other games.  

Still today I won't by games if I've still got others I've bought but the problem now is ps plus.  I don't have to buy games to have a massive ps3/ps4 backlog it just happens.
