Duke Nukem 3D
I'm not sure this is video game news in a general sense but I found this LGR video to be entertaining and awe inspiring. Awe inspiring because it's really incredible how powerful computers are now and I felt like it was worth talking about. Yeah, yeah, we have blazingly capable computing devices in our pocket, the Nintendo Switch and any smartphone being chief among them but it still feels special to me when we hit certain computing milestones and somehow when I watched this LGR video it felt like one.

It looks like the RTX 1080 Super is just under $100, depending on where you look, although it doesn't seem to be very available at the moment. This sounds like a very "wow" PC, I'll have to watch the video. 32G of RAM seems like a lot! That 4TB SSD looks great and expensive, too. I'm not too knowledgeable about AMD's CPUs (not like I used to be), but I remember the time, you mentioned when there were less than four cores and now there's 32. I believe I have seen, heard, or read that gaming really doesn't use that much, it's more of the GPU. Although, it can vary among different games, some are more CPU intensive than others. I'm a bit amazed at the CPU Cooler, expecting at least some sort of AIO, not air fans. I don't know how hot that CPU gets. This build looks like something to drool over.
In any game the faster the CPU the better. With that you can only go so far with new CPU speeds so they are expanding out with more cores so the best performance improvements going forward will be with games that can take advantage of that. And better video cards. Always better video cards. 🤣🐉
