What the numbers say about Washington
None of the three publishes a PC count, so there is no machine total for this city. Only HunterM publishes a rate: $6 an hour for a walk-in, $4.50 for members. iBattle lists its hardware instead — RTX 3090 cards, Intel i7 processors and 27-inch BenQ monitors at 240Hz.
HunterM is the only one open past midnight, running until 03:30 daily. Nightwing's is the narrowest: open play only on Monday and Thursday evenings, the rest of the week given over to private parties.
