GPU argument

Alright. So there is this kid in my health class, and I overheard him say he had all of the parts to build his PC and that he was going to run FORTNITE (of all things) AT 4K 60FPS. So, the next day he is over nearby by my desk at the start of class, talking to someone else. I then ask him what is you GPU for you PC build? (Keep in mind this is only 7th grade). He replies with "Intel core whatchamacallit". I laugh so hard i fall out of my chair. I then say Intel doesn't make gpu's. He says yeah they do. So, I bring up Linus's video about the Intel prototype GPU, and says "THAT'S THE ONE I HAVE!" This goes on for about 5 minutes until the teacher comes in. 

 

The next day: He says he just got CS-GO and PUBG on this "new gaming rig". I was like "oh cool whats your steam name I will add you", and he says I don't have a steam account. He also says you do not need a steam account to play these games. This kid thinks he is so cool.

 

 

BOTTOM LINE IS: HOW DO I END THIS GPU ARGUMENT?

STOP IT RIGHT THERE

 

He's probably a poor kid watching Youtube videos about these games, pretending that he's actually playing. You'd better let it slide.

You shouldn't try to win, just ignore him. Him being wrong doesn't affect you.

Also, laughing at him not knowing the difference between CPU and GPU probably made him want to be right about stuff so he started lying.

depending on how well fortnite is optimized (I'm not letting that cancer touch anywhere near my network, let alone my PC), you can get away with super low at 4k 60fps probably..

there was an ad I think on my intel control panel that advertised fortnite at 1080p 60fps, or something along those lines, and I have UHD 620..

Spoiler

an ad like this:

That's not really relevant. The alleged liar said they had an Intel graphics card, seeing the item itself and claiming they owned it. It's more likely a misunderstanding that spiraled into an argument.

Really not worth it. It's best to leave it alone, not be vindictive, and you'll get a lot more out of the experience if you can resist the urge to be right.

Not worth it indeed. 4K60 on Intel whatchamacallit is... euhm, it won't end very well if that continues if he keeps lying like a snake. Especially if the behaviors are immature. I had conversation with our neighbour and the argument, it wasn't really an argument but we talked about it in a very mature manner despite he's 17.

If anything, I would say ask for a photo of the internals or using CPUz, but like I said, the vindictiveness is the problem, not the other person being wrong and lying.

Not recommended and not safe. He could be so offended, he hired/asked some morons/friends to beat the crap out of you.

Don't waste your time.  You are in the 7th grade and these arguments are pointless as they have no barring on your life.  Worry about not becoming the idiot and being productive in society.  Idiots will always being around you and plenty of pointless discussion to be had.

oh for craps sake... this isn't even high school, it's 7th grade... and the kid is screaming for some sort of attention to "fit into" the crowd he respects. Either help him or pay him no mind.

I have no idea what 7th grade means, we don't use the term 'grades' in the Netherlands.

The best like others said: don't waste time with pointless arguments and pay him no attention. However, if he accepts mature help, then why not.
