You can plug in a console and it just works. Can anyone tell me why they would prefer to build a PC over a console?

its fun
the components are upgrade able
largest choice of games ever
you can use a computer for other tasks
The risks you claim are actually low.
Because you'd have to be a retard to fuck something up while building a PC, it's like ikea furniture tier.
I just buy the parts and make my store do the building part for me. Suck my dick lol
imagine being a monkey who bend pins or fry your gpu while installing
even from factory, parts can be DoA without you even doing anything
but that's why there's warranties
It's really not that hard, OP. I'm pretty inept and even I was able to do it by myself. The only worrying things would be static, which is easy enough to avoid itself too.
It's Lego for adults
It's unironically not hard to build a pc. The biggest thing I see people struggle with is they feel like everything has to connect to something. If you just put it together one part at a time it isn't the "oh god so many cables what goes where oh fuck" that people seem to think it is
Half the nigs on this site don't even know how to install a pirated game, let alone a CPU.
>I'm retarded, therefor I play on console
figured. but dont worry, you are in great company here with like minded people
t. kiddo who has never build a PC in their life
Guys, if you live in this century and still think computer building is scary, you need to realize you are a normie shitter
if you're a brainlet you can buy pre-built PCs you know
they're just slightly more expensive
>You can plug in a console and it just works
blocks your path
everything you get comes with a manual, its only hard if you are actually retarded... it is time consuming tho
In fairness everyone breaks one thing before they learn to be more careful.
I fucked up one of my usb ports because that god damn thing wouldn't go in and it bent a pin.
I can assemble a computer from parts, but I don't know how to pirate
It's literally open in the file with winrar and mount the iso
I, too, visit Reddit
Just look up online which parts you want and tell the guys at the store to build it for you.
You can always just pay someone like me to build the damn thing if you're that scared.
>being so retarded you can't follow written instructions
I would tell you to kill yourself, but you would fuck that up as well.
>an unlimited amount of things can go wrong when building a PC
user, maybe 15-20 years ago, when you could fry your cpu by switching jumpers on mb
Nowdays you CAN'T build components wrong, they just don't fit where they shouldn't fit
The hardest part for me is getting really good/clean cable management.
OP is a blistering retard.
I had so much fucking problems with the gamecubes I've owned and my 360.
I'm on my 4th PC build and every single one worked on the first try. And also, modern cases come with all the power/reset plugins bundled into one plug.
I bought a shitty i5 prebuilt for 80 bucks and then dropped a GeForce 1650 into it, cheap gaming PC complete
>You can plug in a console and it just works.
>day 1 mandatory patch for console firmware 32 gb
>put in game needs to download last half of the game 40 gigs
>day one patch for the game 12 gb
>game starts but its running at 12 fps because needs a first week performance patch
>meanwhile controller lost pairing, has to reconnect to console
>the left analog is drifting
Just works
it's tech lego. even my retarded stoner bro friend did it in highschool.
>And also, modern cases come with all the power/reset plugins bundled into one plug.
Not true for a lot of them, as this would fuck up motherboard compatibility. Some have those big headers with an adapter block that you plug all the shit into first.
because im not a mongoloid that can't follow basic instructions, like you?
whats it like being too incompetent to do something 12 year olds do?
this is the best option. i bought an asus prebuilt second-hand from craigslist and dropped a good graphics card in it.
top of the line gaymen for $500.
I am clumsy as fuck and even I managed to build a pc without problems, you're just unintelligent.
>endless hours of troubleshooting
for some that's half the fun. for others it never happens and that's a fact.
>have triple digit iq
>avoid things going wrong
The bits you posted in that image are the least stressful out of building the entire machine.
Just don’t be a nigger and you should be fine:
I'm as pcfag as they come but most of that is picky bullshit you could say about computers such as:
>mandatory windows updates
>day one patches are still a thing
>game crashes because you don't have the right drivers
>update drivers OOPS game number 2 now crashes
>mouse starts double clicking
Etc, these are all basic bitch problems that shouldn't be brought up as a deterrent for using a particular platform.
when i was younger i missed plugging in a cable . i bought a premade computer put in a new video card, it needed a new power supply.
If you can't follow the instructions on how to build a pc either pay someone to build it for you or stick to consoles you fucking pleb.
what did he do wrong?
>t. console player
ye but im not the one starting a thread claiming "it just works"
I live Russia Siberia and console war stupid here
So you have money
Buy PC
PC play game watch internet do documents
Buy console
Play expensive game pay for internet multiplayer
Console bad
PC good
Consolefag here, but you can literally be McNugget brain and still build a PC youtube.com
I am genuinely amazed at the ability of low IQ people to fuck things up. I swear these people walk around their house with a rock or club looking for things to smash.
>borrow a book to a friend who I know is a retard
>I am amazed that he's even interested in a book or can read at all
>one day later I get a question
>"where are the action bits so I can skip to them?"
>that's not how books work you retard ape
>receive the book back a week later completely fucked up, looks like it has been read 5000 times by the wear and tear
This happens with fucking everything. New screen? Scratched or broken within the year. New phone? Screen broken within a month. Game disks? Scratched to fuck within a week.
How do these people do it? Fucking chimps.
Why the fuck do you care so much about what people on a nigerian chimpanzee foreskin smuggling forum do what their time and money? Don't you have anything better to do than make this thread 3 times a day?
Have you tried not being retarded?
I can only assume its complete fucking retards like my friend who has gotten a new phone 4 times within last 2 years
fucker acts like they are fragiel but conveniently forgets he will throw it 20 feet across the room into the floor because his blue tooth isnt pairing the first time or it hangs up for a second because the 30 browser tabs he has open
That's basically it for me too.
you can pirate a CPU???
>tfw could have just pirated my ram
FUCK
>OP too retarded to understand the joy of building something from parts to a working unit
>Op never built lego as a child because he was from a broken home
>OP never built a treehouse in his backyard with help from his father
>OP never built his first bike
>OP never prepared a meal with help from his mother
Lmao
also bait thread
There's a saying, no matter how hard you try to make something idiot-proof, the universe will just invent a better idiot.
>mount the iso
That's where you loose me
Everything seems 20x more daunting the first time you do them because of the force required for shit like locking your CPU down or seating ram
Other than that its mostly just slight annoyances like cable management or front IO connectors being a bitch
You can definately fuck up and fry something if your humping a ballon while you build or fumble a screwdriver directly onto your motherboard at just the wrong way but if you are careful and not retarded its easy as shit
>there's an inherent risk of frying your expensive GPU/CPU
if you would end up frying your GPU/CPU you're probably gonna end up overheating your console and it's gonna break down in ~3 years time.
pc and console are pretty much the same, the exception is that pirating on pc is easier, and sales are more common on pc. unless you have a shit internet connection, or friends that play on other platforms, pc is generally better if you aren't a brainlet.
hopefully, if the normies keep pushing game streaming maybe even linux can actually replace the spyware riddled, bloated version of vista called windows 10.
I'm pretty sure I fucked something up when I built my PC and it still runs 8 years later. You're more likely to receive a part that's already broken than you are to break it (if you treat it nicely).
OP, how autistic are you where placing a cpu, clicking in ram, mounting a cpu fan, and connecting psu cables is difficult?
Everything
looks like you got lost in third grade english aswell
an ISO is a virtual CD/DVD
you basically insert a virtual disc into a virtual drive since its all fucking data, theres no magic on it being burned to a physical container
