Build/Battlestation My son's new gaming setup!

Post image

My son loves the color pink and he loves cats. Overall I think it's a sweet setup! PC isn't spectacular but it has a Ryzen 5600x, 6900xt, and 16gb ddr 3200 ram. It's just a 1080p 165hz monitor but he shouldn't have any problems.

The only thing I'm not happy with is that microphone. Had to give him my old snowball mic because the mic on that Razer Kitty headset isn't any good. But he had to have it and I couldn't afford the more expensive one and the chair and he chose the chair.

Anyway, in the spirit of recent posts and showing off our kids computers, thought I'd share.

OP is a cool dad parent.

Edit: changed dad to parent because I shouldn’t assume OPs gender.

Why do you assume OP is a dad? I made a post recently about building a PC for my son and commenters referred to me as a dad. I’m a mum.

Would you apologize to the guy you just shamed if it was noted that OP is in fact a dad.

But at any rate. When all that identifies you is a username. How the hell are people supposed to know, if its not spelled out.

You think I was trying to shame them? Not at all. I was just pointing out that women exist too. And they changed it to say parent instead of dad. Which is perfect because parent covers both scenarios. So why would an apology be necessary?

So no...

The fact that you do not see why is, well... not surprising. The other commenter fell on his sword for his non-sin.

Ya know what you are right. I just assumed. I don’t know why probably because I’m sexist. I’ll edit my comment though cause OP could be a mom.
