People are recommending others to get a PC based on this idea of superior performance and fidelity. Of course you're still playing on older hardware, so are console players.

The point is, if you want ultra settings on the most games, you would need to upgrade GPUs often. that's not a talking point, that is a reality.
my only point is you said " So every 3-5 you have to purchase a new GPU to keep pace, not to mention every 5-8 you need to purchase a new CPU to maintain true parity with that GPU." and that is simply not true.

No way with what they put it in. Said 700 and it's exactly what I thought.

a 2TB SSD was expensive back in 2022 when I bought mine, but they can be had for like $150 at this point. and sony pays far less for their SSD's when they are buying them buy the millions.

If you bought a PS5 slim with disk and a 2tb hard drive you'd come out at $670.

I'm def poverty compared to that :manny:

4080 has held me down tho I'm chilling :manny:

That is just a dream build with $16K budget. Remember that gratitude is a state of wealth and want is poverty. Let's check back in time to see what it'd cost to build in the future and the amount of value it retains :salute:

How often are you talking?

A 4080 will be able to play shyt on ultra for the next 3-5 years I imagine, and it released in 2022

You're absolutely right if you're good with 60fps but if you start getting into 120fps then no, it can't. Most updated version of Cyberpunk can't run max settings on everything on a 4080.

The conversation is more nuanced, I agree. But so is the concept of just telling a console gamer to just spend the money on a gaming PC as if there is no equivalent future expense.

How much for a PC that can real 4k, 60fps, and Ray tracing?

I'd say 2-3kish.



I really think you have to be misinterpreting the above being possible on a ps pro. for 700 that seems like an insane amoun of optimization. any concrete sources for this? not trying to say you lying I just want to see it cuz if it can do that then its pristine value.

Lets be honest, no one is building a top of the line pc instead of buying a 700 dollar pro :mjlol:

Most people just gonna go out and buy the slim ps5 and call it a day

You want ray tracing at 4K, you're looking at 4080 or a 4090. Then you build backwards from there to include the tv/monitor that can support 4K.

yeah thats what I figured which is why I'm trying to figure out how the pro is pulling that off from a (iirc) older amd card.
