!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

You’re welcome! I’m glad I could provide some helpful stuff to start :)
Ah I see! I’m also a Fusion 360 user too! I was thinking you were talking about stuff like Blender or CGI creation in Unreal Engine which are much more demanding on your computer. But yeah, Fusion 360 isn’t that bad at all!
You’re absolutely right about the specs then! Your gaming sounds like what you will want to check out.
I’d highly recommend visiting the various games’ pages on a site like Steam and seeing their system requirements. You’ll want a good processor and video card (GPU = Graphics Processor Unit, also called a graphics card) more than anything else which most games will really thrive on. Most gamers seem to do well with getting an Intel i5 or i7 or a AMD Ryzen 5 or Ryzen 7. A i9 or Ryzen 9 is probably overkill. For a GPU, this is something you’ll want to research on. I’d recommend checking out some YouTube videos and watch the most recent ones you can that compare the graphics cards and show you how they perform in games. Maybe even check out some YouTubers who showcase the games you’re interested in and can talk about what specs worked well for them too.
Thank you!! I didn't want to overspend in a super amazing graphic card when I'm really only using for smal games. Your tips were awesome I will look into it for sure.
