      These are rarely mutually exclusive. Rather the opposite, as these textures and whatnot need to be pumped through RAM and VRAM via the CPU.

        Actually internet is cheaper in third world than first world. But PC hardware is expensive.

          Obviously depends on the country but in general Internet is the worst, there’s a reason the piracy scene is so big in India, although maybe it’s just because the servers will be further on average.
