I spent about $2k on my 5600/7900xt build. Kinda sad I did because most new releases are stutter fests. Anything new has been bought on PS5. 🤷‍♂️

  1. Probably because Live costs money and you’re cost sensitive
  2. I don’t know what your currency is, I’m just comparing to console
  3. You can get an extremely cheap PC which can outperform this
  4. Look up junkman builds. Some people buy old Dell workstation PCs that offices are just throwing out and chuck in a GPU. If you get a good enough deal, all of a sudden you could’ve spent $200-250 and you’re at Series X performance, Series S for sure.

Dude, why is every line a question? What you said makes no sense again too, and why the comparison with a $1500 PC?

Yes, all PCs aren’t the same. All Xboxs aren’t either - the S and X. The Series X is literally just a custom 3700x with a 6800. You can get these parts for $300-400, and the rest of the parts are cheap. You save £70 a year on Live and games are cheaper. This will pretty much match the console. There isn’t custom hardware any more, this isn’t the 360/PS3 gen.

So you’re saving £70 a year on Live, £20 per game maybe too. But guess what? As the generation progresses, these parts get even cheaper. We’re pretty much at the crossover already where consoles have poor value.

So what happens to your games when they become more resource intensive? You’re right, every PS5 is the same. So every PS5 is forced to turn down the quality of the game and you can’t change that or even upgrade. PC? New GPU, all while keeping full backwards compatibility and free online.

So no, you’re still an idiot and yes, what he said still makes no sense. Yes, all games have different minimum requirements. Do you not remember some consoles playing Cyberpunk poorly? The difference here is when this happens, you can upgrade a PC. A console? Accept the graphics or spend another $500.

This is why PC gamers laugh at you. You’re a PC gamer too, except you’re forced to pay more for games, the same amount for the system, have worse graphics AND you pay for online.

Dude, an Xbox Series X is literally just a custom 3700x with a 6800. It’s running a modified version of Windows. There’s nothing special or different in there, this isn’t the 360/PS3 generation.

If you have a PC that exceeds these specs, it will outperform the console full stop. You don’t need “500 liquid cooling and a 500 GPU”. You can literally get a 3800x for £100 and a used 6800 for £200-300. The PC is barely more money with storage and a motherboard etc but saves £70 a year on Live + cheaper games.

What part? The fact that all PCs are not the same? Thus will not perform the same?

Or the fact that nearly all games have different minimum hardware requirements?

Or the fact that no shit a $1500 PC will be better than a console?

Or perhaps you take issue with the fact that all consoles in their respective generations & platforms perform the exact same?

He absolutely said facts. And people like you are why most PC gamers are viewed as elitist asshats.

Dude, even if you don’t meet the specs the PC would still outperform a console because the console has lower specs

“Console gamers when they realise their system was a midrange PC 2 years ago, and you can now build a PC which beats it for similar money, with free online, full backwards compatibility and cheaper games”

Seriously these memes get old when you can build a ÂŁ500-600 PC which beats the console and saves you ÂŁ70 a year online and ÂŁ20-30 for every game.

"Pc is better than console" yeah no shit YOUR 1500$ pc will be better than my average console. Guess what, i have a pc. But whenever i try to purchase a game from steam it tells me i need all thes other bullshit hardware requirements. Not all PC are the same. But every console of its generation will always perform the same.
