I have a really interesting history in computers, my journey started when my sister got her first pc back in oct 2003, it came with windows xp preinstalled and featured a 1.7ghz celeron processor and 256mb ram which was quite reasonable for that era and i was only 8 at that time, we used to play some older games (mainly early 90s to late 90s) for 1-2hrs daily until after few months my sister decided she needed it for her studies and won't let us use it anymore and even put a password on her pc, i remember she was so silly that she had exactly the same password as hint and so that's how i got access to it again but only for a brief period and she was much more sensible after that. I still wish i could have much better experience at that time with PCs but we were so restricted to use it until i got my own first pc in 2007 which was pretty mediocre but reasonable for the price.
I used it for 3.5 years to play moderately demanding games. Then i got a Sandy Bridge based PC back in May 2011 with a 1080p monitor. But unfortunately, it had nvidia 8400gs gpu which was dismal for games so next year i got a HD 6850 and it a pleasure to play most games in high settings. But as time passed it started failing so i got 750 ti after 4 years of it's use. Being so power efficient i never had overheating issues with the latter and at the same time it was very powerful for gaming when i bought it. As games were getting more demanding and requiring more GPU horsepower to even run at low settings my brother gave me his old 1050 ti recently, i am not a hardcore gamer so the performance is satisfactory for me. I am currently running KabyLake i5 PC with 16GB RAM.
