I love how you specifically say "gaming PC" because I know you and every so-called "gamer" these days have to have some over the top, expensive, overheating, power-sucking pile of trash to run games at ridiculous resolutions/refresh rates with blinding, ugly graphics full of so many garbage lighting effects and muddy megatextures that the game is nearly unplayable.

If you can't run a game on a ~400 UKBucks machine, the game isn't worth playing.

Why even bother with a PC when I have a stick and a hoop?

If it can't be played with a few bits of wood and plastic, then the game isn't worth playing.
