I will be getting a killler gaming rig soon (I hope) to replace my current pentium 4 POS. I can play WoW on low at 30FPS on it! When I get my new rig i think I'll be hopping in to some FPS gaming as well as the newer RTS's like Warhammer Dawn of War II and probably Supreme Commander 2, as well as maintaining my MMO subscriptions.
The question is, will I maintain the feeling of euphoria I get when I play on my friends' gaming rigs and can max every setting comfortably? Or will I, like with most new gadgetry, eventually get bored and take it for granted? Will I get frustrated that new tech is making my PC look like a dinosaur?
More to the point, did these things happen to you? I want to guage the overall satisfaction you felt if and when you bought a new gaming platform that was a serious upgrade to your previous rig, and how long you felt it. The main reason for this post is that I don't want to fall into the never-ending pit of consumerism without knowing that the high I get will last a little longer than other purchases.
Go forth and discuss!
