Agreed that it was a poor decision, and I definitely don't fault them. It just turned me away and made me dive into other options, is all.

My current PC is a gaming rig. I built it from the ground up for exactly that purpose, so Windows is really the only smart choice for this system until if/when this system won't be able to handle newer game releases any more. That could still be up to 5 years from now, though.

I'm going to do a lot more pre-planning for my next build, though. No need for all this RGB crap in full glass cases any more. It was a fun build, but definitely not needed and probably paid more for each piece of hardware because of it.

While I don't play nearly as much as I used to, I've still enjoyed some of the recent releases like 'The Last of Us, part 1' and the Resident Evil series and remakes. I'd rather jump into one of those stories than watch TV, if that makes sense.

I think I'm over the repetitive, sweaty, 'skill-based matchmaking' games like COD and the like, though. Had a lot of fun playing them over the years, but I can't really stand the repetition, either.

Regards,
Nick
