So I Revived my Gaming Rig
So a few weeks ago I dusted off my old PC and revived my gaming rig. And while I haven’t QUITE brought it up to modern standards yet, I did make some meager upgrades and enhancements to it, complete with a shiny new case and an eye toward the future of having a true gaming PC once more that will serve as a Steam Deck companion of sorts. So here’s why I took the leap back into full blown PC gaming, what I modified, and what I’m hoping to upgrade in the future.
