I thought it would be fun for my wife to try Valheim with my mates as her first PC game. Shes since taken over my PC and ive been relegated to my handheld and a chair from the kitchen. She even plays with my mates on her day off while I work. This has been the norm for months now. I have truly been cucked. Please send your condolences

Rules:
1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy “anti-woke” energy, you probably shouldn’t be posting it here.
3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.
Pour one out for our brother in arms whose wife just gave him permission to build a second gaming PC ;)
Not in this economy. Ram alone will require a second mortgage.
Aye. Time for a dock and a second monitor.
Buy a used Optiplex.
Gets you an acceptable case, mobo, CPU, RAM, and probably SSD for about $200. Add a used 3050/3060/4060 GPU and an upgraded PSU.
It’s not gonna knock your socks off, but it gets you going without over-spending and you can carry some of that forward when you upgrade later.
May I suggest an AMD card instead? Even on the second market, they’re typically better bang-for-buck
You absolutely may. Intel is valid too.
i was going to recommend this; a couple that loves doing something together is bound to be much more rewarding than the cost of one of these machines.
