So I find it hypocritical that the IT Group criticizes the Gamer Group for their choices based on "it's more than what you actually need", "overpaying for no real difference", "snake oil", and other value evaluations. Nevertheless, there is never a shortage of Gamers willing to spend that money to try to gain an edge. It's almost engrained in gaming culture to pay a hefty premium for minor differences in performance. They want the latest CPUs, even when games rarely used multithreaded architecture. Older gamers remember suffering high prices during the RAM shortage, when the fastest RAM had 200% markup or more. They are used to paying rip off prices for Video Cards when crypto mining was hot and kept prices sky high. They want to buy the very best for their hobby, even if it's very costly for what you actually get. The Gamers group also has a lot of adults with disposable income and their main hobby is gaming. The Gamers group has a lot of very young people who live with their parents, have no decision making ability about running Ethernet or not, and often don't care about learning anything other than optimizing gaming. And this sub should be welcoming to Gamers, even though their outlook is not in line with the IT group all the time. I think this sub needs to recognize that there are two major groups that reside here: "IT" people (IT focused people, like pros, enthusiasts, homelabbers, hobbyists) and the smaller, more hidden yet still significantly large group, "Gamers". ![]() u/RoweDent created this awesome resource on network theory u/tht1kidd_ has created a suggestion post regarding information everyone needs to provide when asking a question about their network There have been some excellent guides written in this sub, and we're always looking for more!
