I wouldn’t call them names, but there is something to be said about people with $2500 gaming pc who only ever play league of legends or Fortnite
If they're playing league or fortnite they're probably already getting called plenty of names.
Hah, the joke is on you as I don’t even play those anymore! My PC has just been gathering dust since my hell raiser spawned last year!!
I play Dome Keeper and World of Warcraft: WotLK instead, but I also program on it, so I guess I don't count. Newer high-profile games don't have that je ne sais quoi that games from around 2004 had. Perhaps I've just played too many games, which makes them predictable, and those old games are just pure nostalgia for me.
Whatever graphic card you have in your system is probably not required for programming
Unless its ML
Personally I find that the games with the best gameplay work well on my $150 Thinkpad
