I built my PC mainly for gaming, but I’m now spending a lot of time on YouTube, Discord, and Twitch. Recently, I began streaming even though my hardware is getting older.

Sadly my computer was set up to play games, though it's really a versatile machine—forums, browsing the web, work tasks, hobby projects, photo editing, music listening, and more. So basically, my main rule was gaming, but it's actually a one-device all-rounder!

No, not anymore. It was definitely the case before, and I still mostly rely on it for upgrades, assuming I’ll be gaming, even though I haven’t had much time or motivation lately. I do play games, particularly on weekends, but my PC is mainly for studying and browsing YouTube.

I work in the IT sector and construct my PC specifically for gaming. In fact, 90% of my usage revolves around gaming. What a joke!

Didn't create the main PC for gaming, but it can handle gaming when needed. It mainly runs BOINC, F@H, downloads, encodes, watches videos sometimes, browses, and performs various other tasks. The goal is to set up PLEX later, once I have enough storage, so it can stream to consoles on the first floor. I actually play and watch media more on my consoles than on the PC.

I construct my computer and choose components tailored for gaming. However, I currently lack sufficient time for gaming as desired.

I rely on my main PC for:
- work
- gaming
- movies/TV shows
- web browsing
Components were selected considering long-term gaming needs, though this mainly applies because Office, VLC, and Chrome function well without extra hardware.

I agree and disagree at the same time.
My main workstation is a Mac Pro. I really enjoy its performance and it’s essential for developing iOS software, which can only be done effectively there.
However, I also enjoy gaming and have been quite frustrated with Mac OS performance in that area, so I created a powerful gaming PC.
I only play games on my primary PC, but my main workstation remains a Mac.
That’s the deal.

I do spend a lot of time gaming on it. Yes, most of the time. I mostly built my gaming PC and then watched YouTube instead of playing afterward after browsing my Steam library, hehe.
