I respect your opinion, but disagree, and here's why.
[quote name='6er']Ignorant is a word. Look it up if you don't know what it means. All this PC BS in the world is turning everyone into candy butt pansy's.[/QUOTE]I clearly said I agreed that the OP was ignorant, but you're using it in a derogatory way for no reason. You are obviously on the other end of the spectrum of what the internet has transformed American culture into. I try to respect people the best I can, and treat them as if we were standing next to each other, and you insult people whenever you feel like, and don't apologize for it, knowing that you're protected by the computer screen.
[quote name='6er']Sticky, start handing out "participation trophies" already and get it over with. Now you are insulting him. Acting like he is incapable of making good decisions, so we should all be nice and let him buy into whatever helps him sleep at night.[/QUOTE]He doesn't have knowledge on graphics cards, so he came here looking for help, and some people didn't listen to anything he had to say, or even read the title of the thread they were responding to. He is incapable of picking the best video card for his situation, a lot of people are, and so he came here for help, and quickly got told to get the
out of your holy PC forum.
[quote name='6er']If you are going to ask a question on the internet, you should always do the research YOURSELF if you want the best answer, even if just to combine with what your told.[/QUOTE]That's absurd. People aren't allowed to ask for help in forums without already knowing the answer? I don't know where you got this interent rule book that nobody else has ever seen, but thank you for enforcing it.
[quote name='6er']You say you don't want to argue any further at the beginning of a large opinionated argument.[/QUOTE]Calling my previous post an opinionated argument is laughable. I listed nothing but facts in that entire post, which you promptly ignored, and instead just continued to spread misinformation and insults. Regardless of this argument, I still respect and even agree with some things that you've said, but I see it's impossible for you to respect others who don't agree with you, even after I apologized for the way I attacked the people in this thread earlier.
[quote name='shosh']God i hate these threads about low cost gfx cards and the infighting and accusations that ensues. next time someone posts asking to run ultra for 20 bucks, imma preemptively say "go
yourself"[/QUOTE]That's the helping attitude that people need, thank you so much for contributing to humanity.
[quote name='SEH']Yeah, and he also said he wants to run BF3 on high. I love that you conveniently leave that out of every post you make, as if we're just attacking this guy who simply wants the best $50 video card. We're telling him that his two wants or demands CAN NOT BE MET. Its not
ing possible. I don't understand why that is so hard of a concept to grasp.
Would you rather we lie to the guy, tell him to get whatever shitty $50 video card he is looking at, then have him be let down when said video card probably cant even run the damn game, let alone on high settings?
If telling the guy the truth makes us all assholes, then I guess we're all assholes here.[/QUOTE]I've stated several times that I agree that it can't be done, I even stated that my brand new $50 graphics card only gets 27fps running on medium settings. To say that I always leave it out means you're not reading, and looking for an argument that's not there.
My argument is that people jumped on the guy for only having $50 to spend on a graphics card (a luxury, not a necessity), and that it happens all the time, not only on this forum, but with PC elitists everywhere. I read this forum because I enjoy learning about processors, graphics cards, etc. and people here have great knowledge and insight in this field. My only argument was, instead of immediately telling him he's an idiot and telling him he needs to spend more money or get the
out, why not answer his question of what's the best $50 graphics card, and let him know it can only run the game on medium settings, but can play nearly every other game on high settings. And then say, if you do want to run BF3 on high, here are the best values for a graphics card in the $100-150 range.
My point is that people don't need to attack someone that's a beginner, it doesn't help anyone, except for maybe help the PC experts feel better somehow.
