Posted December 9, 2015 Hello, for few days I've been planning to build a gaming PC but at the same time I'm worried about my future as I am a student with an average mark of 'A's-'B's. I tend get bored if I don't play video games. Do you think it is a risky move for me to build a gaming PC at this important stage of my life?

Posted December 9, 2015 You should be mature enough now to control how long you play video games. If you want to reply back to me or someone else USE THE QUOTE BUTTON!

Posted December 9, 2015 For me personally gaming has helped me figure out "me". It has helped me do a lot of stuff. So will it ruin your life? That's up to you. If you get a gaming PC and spend 20 hours a day playing games, then yes it will. If you do all your work first and then have fun in a game for 1-2 hours a day, then no.

Posted December 9, 2015 Better do it now before you have real responsibilities and can only dedicate a small amount of time to gaming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted December 9, 2015 Well, for me it was like: "Yay I've got money to buy a gaming pc" ~~Bought gaming pc~~ "Wow, now i have to work to pay for it" ~~Not enough time to play pc~~ After i bought my pc i started working more and more to pay it which led me to a promotion TL:DR - It won't ruin you life, the only thing that can do that is you.

Posted December 9, 2015 It can be risky. If you are thinking about building a PC and don't want to take the risk of gaming, you can build a work station PC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted December 9, 2015 Turn back now. I used to be a billionaire with a harem of supermodel wives, but then I built a gaming pc and now I live in the dumpster behind LMG headquarters.

Posted December 9, 2015 Author You should be mature enough now to control how long you play video games. I am not a hardcore gamer. Recently I stopped playing League of Legends because I got really bored of playing... I play games on mac book pro which is leading me to build a gaming pc well if you're asking that yourself already.. I thing you're good , in your freetime gaming wont ruin anything... just dont put games before your studies I rarely get addicted to play games for like 5-6 hours (only league of legends) Better do it now before you have real responsibilities and can only dedicate a small amount of time to gaming. I don't think I have the responsibilities to play games at a small amount of time... I've never experienced playing on other latest games like GTA 5, fallout4, all CoD games etc. I only sticked to one game called League of Legends which I recently stopped playing...
