I was talking to my friend and he was saying how he isn't that much into playing pc games as he used to be. That is because he thinks that it's just too hard to keep up with all the games that keeps coming out and the constant upgrading of the computer to keep up the games. What do you think? Is it hard to keep the computer up to date with the latest games? What do you think you would say is the time line for when your computer would considered old and in need of an upgrade? Is it too expensive to keep your computers up to date?

If you want to play all the latest games on a high resolution with max settings. You are basically going to have to upgrade at least every two years.
Playing on a reasonable resolution with low/medium settings, it's quite easy to keep up with the latest games. |

I think if you get a an i7 system, with GPU upgrades you should be fine.

Nobody can tell me you cant afford a new video card or anyhting that you might need to keep ur momentum going every 2 years...I mean comon. Max you might spend every 2 years is like 2k.
