From what I remember that quote was taken out of context.

I could see that. It felt like a weird thing to say. Oh well. My next OS is going to be Linux if I ever get around to buying a new computer. I've been "doing it soon" for a few years lol.

You don't necessarily need a new computer, you could get a new SSD, install Linux there and dual boot for a while.

Very true, but some context, I have a 3080 or 3070 GPU but a CPU from 2009 and a 5400 RPM hard drive with steam games. I'd get like 20 FPS in Elder Ring on lowest settings. My CPU has become a major bottle neck. Over the years I've upgraded everything else but that because that essentially means an entirely new PC

Poor GPU, the rest of the team can't keep up
