It's been so many years, and his videos are still relevant. Saw the topic, registered, and even decided on necroposting. It's a pity there's no one like him right now.

Who can tell me how to check my computer if it is compatible with 4K gaming and can be used for this purpose. And what are the requirements to the Internet connection? I am from https://populationstat.com/india/mumbai and i do not know how to test my PC for the required parameters. I will appreciate all your suggestions, I am sure you will help me with my queries. Thanks for your attention.
