    This might not be what you want to hear, but console gaming. For the price of a GPU you can get a console and load up on games.

      A PS5 Pro costs like 800€ and is significantly slower, more restricted, and can’t be upgraded without shelling out a similar (and rising) amount of money for another console.

        A pro is absolutely not necessary. The current generation will get new releases for years to come, and performance will be fine. You don’t need to upgrade until the next generation comes out, typically in 5-10 years, and then it’s once for that entire generation.

        Even then your current games are usually backwards compatible, or you just have your old console to play those games.
