    You can take a photo of the same mountain with the latest and fanciest canon or whatever and your grandma’s old film camera, but you can’t play a lot of games with few years old gaming PC

    For example my old gaming PC with 1st gen Ryzen and rx6600 while quite new (~2018-2020 I think) is already severely underspecced to play some modern games even on lowest graphics settings. Luckily I don’t have any interest on playing anything except a little classic wow and oats, so don’t really care of upgrading

      I very much agree, it’s hard. But I also think that older games are still just as fun. There are whole emulation communities that just play retro games. That’s an extreme example, but gaming is a very wide hobby and whatever your budget it, you can probably find fun stuff to do.
