After budgeting out the next tier of upgrades for my PC, the total cost of my new components had me endlessly second-guessing every dollar. I kept thinking "do I really need this?" and "how much of a difference will this really make?", the answer to both always being some weaselly variation of "it depends." Now more than ever, it feels like having top shelf hardware means little in the world of unoptimized, unfinished triple-A games, and crossing the rubicon of 4K gaming is flat out impossible if you can't drop $1,000 on a graphics card alone.
So I went in the opposite direction. I bought a CRT, instead.
