Aren't GPUs stupid expensive still?

What's a good PC these days that can beat a PS5 and still manage to be cheaper?

Keeping up with PC hardware is significantly cheaper than keeping up with consoles

It's much cheaper

PS5 is $800 after 5 years, and continuing to add yet another $60 to its cost every year, and none of its parts will carry over to the PS6 so you're stuck paying for an entire machine again where PC upgrades will be significantly cheaper and less frequent than console upgrades.

huh. why is ps5 $800 instead of $400-500? and why are you adding another $60 every year? Ps Plus?

I mainly game on PC but even I know to have "less frequent than console upgrades" youll be spending at least $800 on the GPU alone

Nah

GPUs around the $300 mark are more than enough to beat consoles, and that's cheaper than buying a $500 machine that's robbing you of another $60 every year just for basic features.

2 out of 2 people so far lack reading comprehension...

im talking about future-proofing. thought i made it pretty clear
your 3060 ti is hardly better than whats in Series X/PS5 and it likely wont be nearly as good as whatevers in PS6/XBox 720

the $270 card TC posted earlier is slightly better than whats in PS5...

Future proofing isn't a thing. The next consoles will once again be $500ish and a graphics card that stomps them (as the 3060ti does current consoles, let's correct the record on that real quick) will once again be less than that. A 4690k bought in the PS4 era is still fine for today's games so CPUs aren't really an issue, just GPUs
