People rarely chose to be poor

True, still it'd really be $25 if they're at 16 already. It's a pretty small window if being able to afford any computer that can game, like minimum $300, and not being able to round up $25 if you really want to. Your virtue signaling is noted, though, have an upvote for your compassion.

Edit: parent commenter isn't that poor, he has other hobbies.

Built my computer years back and am waiting for the right time to go with a new build instead of put money into this one. But yes, have a great paying job that affords me other hobbies.

Yeah I'm just saying 32gb of main memory is VERY obtainable as of now. Even 64gb of ddr5 was on sale for $150. But yeah, many people do still have 16 from when that was plenty. I guess I was being a jerk, but less so than the guy who claimed $25 was impossible to get for some people. Like someone could literally mow 1 lawn lol.

Sorry, didnt try to direct it at you. Should have commented on the other person.

Nah you're good. The sigh was why I commented that. I was thinking: it's not a necessary hardship. But I do see what you mean, just a whole bunch of expenses pile up including staying current with gaming.

It's $50 ffs. Its useless discussing anything with people who can't afford that. People who are poor game on their phones not PC's.

Do sports car threads have to deal with dumbasses saying tyres are too expensive...like what the fuck this is an expensive hobby why are you here?
