    I recently had a game tell my my NVIDIA driver was out of date by like a year.

    Ngl I just ignored it, that’s like a 500mb update and I’m just not interested in the time it takes unless something breaks.

      Mate, how do you play any games if 500mb takes too much time?

        Because I already have them and don’t need to download them again. 500mb on a mediocre day is like 2 hours.

        If you mean online games, I tend not to because they often work poorly. For some strange, totally inexplicable reason that definitely has nothing to do with my terrible internet.

              Instant gratification has rotted y’all’s brains. A stable 25 down is not just survivable but cromulent. I’m on 100 down 40 up and can’t imagine how having a gigabit connection would make my experience any better when the bottlenecks are generally upstream of the ISP.

                Nah, fuck off with that shit. I wanna download a modern game in less than 3 hours, thank you very much

                My 500 both ways has yet to hit a bottleneck when it comes to large downloads, and has saved me hours upon hours of time since I got upgraded from 100. You have no idea what youre on about
