Back in the day, when I had 386SX 16Mhz / 8 MB RAM bored with it after a while and craved to gain a powerful gaming machine so bought P200 MMX / 32 MB RAM but it was not enough coz there were the times of 3dfx madness began so go go go let's buy Voodoo 2. Desire was fulfilled but no for too long coz arms race's speed was delivering more demanding gamez too fast and my PC became outdated too quickly, you could barely play titles from 2000. Then I thought - wtf? Found constant upgrade just stupid and started to utilize actual hardware and done mircales with it, dig with past PC library, gathering emulated stuff (mainly NES & SNES but even some of PSX on Bleem! were... call it 'playable'), collecting mods etc.
I've been doing this for 8 fucking years till 2006 and NEVER run out of games.
Then I was gifted Celeron 400 MHz / 64 MB RAM / Voodoo 3 and felt like my gaming catalogue just rocketjumped and use it till 2008 when got a mid-to-low tier machine, still using it even this day. And guess what, after 5 years I can run anything besides Crysis 3 (lack of DX11 card) and rarely go below medium level of details. Even with next-gen's arrival, I doubt I'll need to upgrade stuff, even thought I'd like to try Witcher 3, Cyberpunk or Warhorse - I've already had a machine powerful enough to run 99,99999 of PC library (fuck C3 for preveting this stat to be 100%) + any soft for NES, SNES, SMS, Megadrive, Jaguar, 3DO, Saturn, Neo-Geo, PSX, N64, Dreamcast, Gamecube, Lynx, Amiga, Gameboy (+ Color, Advance), DS, PSP etc. and most of PS2 and Wii titles... Life is not enough to even lick it with the edge of my tongue so the only thing that would force me to buy betters specs is a recent hrdwr's death.
How about U?
