Oh wow. I actually owned one of those things back in 2011.

Don’t believe it was ever updated past Android 2.3. You can use custom firmware / ROMs to get it up to Android 4.x, but at the end of the day it’s a 12 year old smartphone with a single-core processor. You may be able to stick some old APKs on their and emulate NES/SNES/GBA, but any even remotely modern Android game would absolutely melt that thing, if it ran at all.

They all have such predicable names too:

War of Heroes: King Battle

The Great City: Global War

Arena of Warriors: Fire Multiplayer

I just made all three of those up, but I bet you there are games with names similar or even identical to that on the Play Store right now

DUDE, awesome. I used to love the Zylann HTerrain plugin back in 3.x, and this looks like that but even BETTER!

Not OP but one benefit to 8K is that it evenly scales into not only 1080p and 4K, but also 1440p and several other resolutions. So although 8K content doesn’t really exist, if you game a lot at 1440p, it can look cleaner than a 4K TV

Two things: the Adobe Creative Cloud (which I hate but am totally dependent on) and better support for FreeSync with more than one display. Even with a 7900XT, which gets open-source drivers, graphics stuff is just easier on Windows.
