@@504Trey you’re free to mod and look at code oh wow😒 driving a KIA doesn’t feel like prison because it’s not a Ferrari. Just does the same shit at different speeds.
@@Ryujihhhuge advantage especially if you like to travel. Though as long as you aren’t playing a strictly online only game, you can still play games offline on steam. It’s more of the what if aspect. Dudes getting old and no telling which direction steam could take 5 years from now if he was to pass away. If the website shuts down what if the millions of dollars that has been spent on that platform? My opinion is that is highly unlikely. But many benefits to owning the game or having an offline launcher to install what ever game you’re trying to install.
With PC you don't have to trash the old one for a new game that has higher system requirement, you just need to change the component that's causing the problem
You can only work with a motherboard chipset so much before needing to replace that for use with newer/different CPU generation/brand if upgrading. Then you have to consider if so much use on a power supply denotes buying a new one, especially if you need more wattage than previously. Then you probably should get around to upgrading the RAM since it's slower and last gen at this point. Then ya obviously gotta drop a newer, probably more power hungry GPU in, unless you're rocking a flagship GPU from a few years back. Then you look at it and say: "nice, didn't have to replace my case, but damn I probably should anyway".
In the positive or negative connotation for instance are you worried about getting hacked or are you saying your able to watch ,play ,or otherwise view content that normally sits behind a pay wall like movies,anime,and games.
Hey man, you really do make some great points. But for me, I'm just happy with the convenience that consoles offer me. I can't stand the prices, though. I settled on the series S. It fills all my needs for the price. I honestly can't complain
What? A computer can be what you want it to be. You could build a mini itx system that performs better than consoles and jumps into Steam Big Picture from your couch if you wanted to.
I keep seeing people say in the comments, "Digital is the future " and "it comes with a stand just not the metal one" like sure thing bud still not worth the 700
@Rolkey noone, I'm saying if you build a 700$ pc you spend 700$ + games. However, on Playstation you pay 700$ + 120$ each year to play online and you pay for games. Not to mention that you mostly pay 70-80$ pr game on ps vs 40-55$ on pc from release.
@Gooierostrich10 do it you won't regret it. I did it three months ago and I was a console gamer for a very long time. You might have to learn a few things but the pay off is completely worth it.
PC guys - mentions competition in the marketplace. Also PC guys - absolutely lose it over 3rd party launchers. PC guys - it's only expensive at entry. Also PC guys - buys new $2000 GPU every year. PC guys - 10x as many games than console. Also PC guys - 90% playtime = Fortnite and Minecraft. PC guys need to stop attacking people for purchasing consoles. Then they'll stop defending their console purchases.
Many games cant even run stable 60 fps on 4k and are locked at 30 fps. And 4k is not native it's upscaled from 1080p. In other words, it's all a lie. Playstation is the biggest scam ever.
@@edwardcanezshame PS5 doesn’t have it either. It’s a seriously underrated feature. If Microsoft had a brain they’d release a modified version of windows that’s more Xbox-like in terms of making it more gaming-focused, couch-friendly, and adding stuff like quick resume. Might not sell insanely well, but people would buy it lol
People always forget the biggest advantage of PC. You can turn off motion blur, film grain, vignette and chromatic abberation. Even if the game has no option to do it, you can just turn it off in the .ini files or use mods to do it.
Honestly I just love being able to mod my single player games with cool/ wacky stuff. Also working on college assignments and learning programming is also a bonus.
@@cehaem2 a lot of people do. I use mine for coding and also mod my games. And not to mention it's nice to be able to have a multi monitor setup on PC to be able multitask. It's true though a gaming capable PC costs a lot more than consoles.
@@geralt36your not talking to the people with an hour to relax and game every other night. Or young kids. Of course Steve from IT would rather a pc so he could do his wizard thing 🙄
Depends, you can on the ps4 but, it’s a very old console and you’d be stuck at 1080p unless you bought a ps4 pro for like $300 but even then it’s still a old console. Plus it’s gonna be used since only older firmares can play modded games. Stuff like that usually turns into a hobby.
I built my PC out of a retired server I got for free, have less than $500 in it, and it's played every game I've thrown at it the last 6 years. I just play 1080p though
THIS. I've pointed out to my buddy that with the proliferation of PC's/laptops as the norm for people to own, it's just bound to grow naturally. If the average person takes the money they were going to use on a laptop/PC anyways, and tack on the money they'd use on a console otherwise, combined you'd get a pretty beefy rig.
I know exactly 0 people that own a pc. Everyone has either a laptop, tablet or does everything on their phone. Sorry, but this is by far the weakest argument I've seen in this comment section.
another big advantage is that your not forced to buy the whole device at once. take your time and hunt for deals on parts. when you have a good setup you can decimate a console with just a GPU upgrade. note timing is important. GPUs have a 2 year release cycle buy a flagship card near end of it and you could easily be stuck with a hot potato.
Not really. A high end GPU may lose about half its resale value shortly after you buy it because the new GPU generation drops, but even my 6900xt has between a $450-550 resale value. It also still performs exceptionally well in most titles. Due to fsr and dlss even the lower end gpus are keeping their resell value as they can take advantage of upscaling.
You can take your time to save up but it depends on whether the upgrade you are making is a generational one or not. You may have to buy a CPU along with that GPU to avoid bottlenecking if upgrading. Depending on the generation of the CPU, you may need to buy a whole new MOBO cause you're now buying the CPU to avoid bottlenecking and if the old cooler you have is not compatible with the new CPU/MOBO you may even need to buy a whole new cooler or a bracket that can make the cooler compatible with the new CPU/MOBO. Also new RAM as well due to new generation MOBO/CPU. Also if you don't have a PSU that has enough power to support the GPU you may have to buy a new PSU as well. So basically a whole new build besides the SSD/HDD unless you plan on keeping your old rig and building a whole new one, you'll have to buy one of those at the very least too.
@@JVPlayz96 Or you plan for that, get a psu with more power than you need and a good cpu, while bottlenecking your gpu for a year or so and then switch to a great setup :) Once you get a good setup, you don't really need to upgrade for 5-6 years. I bought my PC with a 1080 and an i7-7700k in 2018 and I'm only now getting to the point I'm thinking about upgrading, while still playing most games at high-ultra. It would have taken longer if I had a 1080 ti, but I'm really feeling the missing vram 😅
Yea majority of people don’t have time or desire to do that. If they made pcs at the same price point without all the extra junk I would get it. I don’t want internet explorer, I don’t want Microsoft. Which means I don’t want to mess with all that garbage. I want to play games. Period. Sony gives me that simplicity
How is that an advantage??? I build my PC and looking for parts was a nightmare. Making sure the parts have good reviews from users, decent price, etc. it was a terrible, stressful experience. You PC gamers have weird way of thinking.
I disagree. Modding is nice, but so is being able to play games from twenty five years ago on the hardware we have now. A well as the insane sales we get multiple times a year. Not to mention Fitgirl Repacks, where we can play cracked games saving us a fortune and allowing us to play many more titles per year without hurting us financially. We also don't pay a premium for multiplayer, which costs a minimum of $80 up front for a year and with the average console lasting five years that's $400 on top of the $500 they spent on the console... before games.
As a guy that owns a Ps5 Slim an Xbox one X Xbox one S. Xbox Series S Xbox Series X. PS4 Ps3 Ps2 PS1. And two gaming pc’s and over 2000 games. PC Gaming is the way to go in the long run👌
You can also upgrade your storage a lot easier on a pc than a console, you can go online and torrent virtually anything you want on pc too (I’m sure you can do the same on a console but it’s most probably more of obnoxious and tedious process). In the long, and short run a PC is the move, aside from exclusives, no reason to not get one or start saving for one.
@@TheEnderCyclopsSad thing is atleast in my country there aren't many parts which don't have RGB everything including mousepad have RGB also cases are trying to include lights in every place possible
love how these youtubers talk about how console is cheap and completely ignore the subscriptions and buying controller every few months because of stick drift
Sub is 10$ month and tbh i buy maybe one controller a year. Same as i bought a new mouse or keyboard. Also in pc there is alot more subs. Atleast for me. So many different games needing a sub
@@badtopvm3156 Wait, what games require a sub? I just use Steam and don't play MMO's so maybe I'm out of the loop? I still think ya'll underestimate the yearly costs of paying for premium internet. $80 up front or $120 a year if you go monthly, let's be conservative and say five years per console lifespan, that's $400. On top of your $500-$600 console, putting it at an actual grand ($1000) per generation. That's before the cost of your games, and let's be real, all PC gamers have played cracked games either because they can or times are tough. That's without the insane sales Steam has several times a year where the big publishers knock 30%, 50%, sometimes 80%/90% off their games. I know console gamers like to huff and puff about "stealing", but it's a reality and an optional bonus we engage in. *shrug* I had purchased maybe six games total on Steam over the course of fiteen years for my PC (couldn't play online with a cracked copy and they were multiplayer only). I pirated literally every other game I played. It wasn't until Steam Deck that I started buying them out on convenience and I'm currently sitting on a 436 game library with a grand total of $1005 spent according to my account. That's basically $2 per game. There simply isn't an argument to be made. PC's are cheaper in every way. Unless you're going bad faith because of jealousy, sunk cost, or just an investment in the brand.
A subscription usually comes with access to free games. And no, unless you throw your controller against the wall you won't have to replace it "every couple of months". PC accessoires are also susceptible to some wear and tear.
Fast resume is one the best feature of modern gaming and I hope we get this feature in everything so we can switch between games no lag like it’s 2025!
One of the best things about PC is that you can modify the game however you want. I can buy a game on Xbox and play it as is or I can buy the same game on PC and do whatever I want to it
The implication that a console is "close" when I still can't overclock it, change out the memory safely without harming the device, or add more than 5TB without making it unstable, is not in fact "closer" to PC. Its still about as far as its always been. Lets look at the PS5 pro. It has: 2tb of memory rated around 7200mbps transfer speed - 4k 120hz, HDMI 2.1 out support (supersampled from 1440p usually) - Expandable up to 5TB m.2 storage. - CPU clocked to 16 threads @ 3.5 Ghz (3.7 turbo boost avg) - No memory bus expansion slots or PCIE slots - no dedicated DAC in its sound card for higher audio processing - 16GB of GDR6 VRAM at 440gb speeds - wifi 6/7 and costs $499-799 Lets look at my pc now! Mind you its 5 years old almost. It has: - 8TB of memory and room for about 3 more hard drives and 1 more SATA/ SSD and 1 m.2, so in theory, 500+ TB is available to place. - Expandable power supply and memory, 4k60 out, 90hz refresh rate, and choices to expand that - CPU clocked at 8 cores/16 threads @ 4.41 Ghz (4.6 Turbo with a tower cooler + 4 fans vs a consoles 1 or 2 fans and no wider cooler) - Plenty of room for extra crap - Dedicated sound card, dedicated audio DAC, and optical/digital audio and video in/out, plus DP and HDMI 2.0 - 6x USB v3.0 slots and 2x USB-C thunderbolt ports (consoles have neither or 1 of each nowadays) - 24GB of GDR5 memory vs the pros 16GB of GDR6 VRAM My pc cost me $550 not including monitor and speakers. Tell me again how those are close? I'll wait. Its like 60% of the way there vs PC. Close and almost only count in horseshoe and throwing grenades.
PCs are way cheaper than consoles if you know what the hell you're doing. I once demonstrated how easy a good PC is to make by showing my friends a mockup PC made from ebay parts. The specs were: A dell optiplex 9020 base PC which had a 3.5 GHz processor, 8 gb of ram, and a 500 gb drive already in the PC. An rtx 2060 An extra 16 gb of ram And a 1 tb SSD The PC cost less than $350 including shipping Think about that $170 you saved plus the online service. Two AAA games and a few indie titles and, depending upon how long you play online, up to $500 more! Additionally, you can upgrade it and sell the old parts instead of buying a new console.
@@funnyfatseals545 Plus the whole point of the video is missed when you establish the cost issue; a console now is only as powerful as the main desktop market was 5 years ago. Sure its a big leap from the PS1 era being 4x weaker but its still 75% of the power of a home PC at the same price point, which is promising, but not equitable.
I like to know where you got a GPU with 24 GB of vram while still keeping your build at $500, all while having 8 terabytes of storage. Because right now this sounds like cap.
Comparing pure numbers on PC hardware vs console is BS. Console soft is optimised for a particular setup while on PC it needs to work wth pretty much everything. Also, your Windows will also use tons of resources, the way the system funnels data through the kernel into (V)Ram is different and way more efficient on consoles.
It's not always the case. PC (Steam) not only has more sales, but most of the time when the game is on sale, they're usually cheaper than the sale available on console

Plus when you get it, you get one of the best controllers if not the best on the market included 🤷
@@DrZombrain so if its just as strong as a 4070 means it will probably be beaten by 5060 and 8700 which will probably go for around 250 to 350 as per usual so really just get a pc cause a 700 dollar console With no disk tray included is a scam
The funny part is people keep hoping consoles will catch up to pc, yet they forget the price is going to catch up just as quick. Consoles were supposed to be the cheap alt to pcs but let’s ruin that and make the performance and price match prebuilt pcs. Smh

I think in the near future a lot of people will have living room PCs running SteamOS Pretty exciting because no one has done the 'dead simple' thing without also locking you into an ecosystem like consoles do
I think the main selling point for consoles is the simplicity. I love pc, but sometimes I miss just being able to boot up my Xbox and launch a game with no issues and have a generally tailored experience.
Agreed, PC is the way to go. Consoles have met it's end. I used them since day one until a month ago when I bought a gaming pc. Never go back to console.

My biggest reason for being on PC for the last 6 years is that I *only* need a PC. On console, if I wanted to play that one specific PS3 era game, I had to bust out the PS3. You have to hold onto your old consoles if you want to keep playing them. Steam holds all of your games no matter what hardware you have, and while there might be some issues on very old games, you can absolutely still make them work. Not to mention things like emulation for other consoles. When you're on PC, all you need is a PC. On console, you have to have more than just that one console to do the same stuff.

@@spiderman3309 @spiderman3309 Well, I have two (This actually goes into another reason I prefer PC that I'll get into in a minute). My "original" PC hardware is an i7-8700, 2070 Super, and 32gb 2666MHz DDR4 memory. My "new" PC is an i7-12700k, 3080 Ti, and 32gb 6000MHz DDR5 memory (You should go for 32gb if you're using DDR5, it can actually be more cost effective than 16gb. If you're using DDR4, you probably won't need 32gb, but for what I do, I need it.) Originally, I had just swapped my 2070 Super for a 3080 Ti, then a few months later I bought new memory, motherboard, and CPU. I was able to then put the "original" PC back together in a new case, and it became my living room PC. I wanted to specify the two different PCs because it's something that's worth pointing out. Your parts will never be obsolete. They will always have a purpose. People who upgraded from PS4 to PS5 probably never touch that console again, because it's not getting the newest games. Don't even get me started on PS3s going to landfills. But with PC, my "old" PC hardware still works just as well as it did before the upgrade. While my biggest reason for PC gaming is that my new hardware can still play my old games, my old hardware can still play my new games as well. Eventually, way down the road when I upgrade my 12700k and 3080 Ti, this PC will be the new living room PC, and my 8700 and 2070 Super might go to my niece, or I might turn it into a server for local cloud storage. I'm down to answer more questions if you have any. I've spent a lot of time figuring out what I like more about each platform lol
@@spiderman3309 Oh not to mention that you get to keep your game libraries across different kinds of PCs. Laptops, Steam Decks, etc. If you had a console and then decided to buy a gaming laptop or a Steam Deck for portability, you'd have to buy a whole new library of games.
@@kreeperskid dude, Thank you so much for this detailed response; you explained everything excellently. Of course, the main reason I wanted the PC is that I can play older games without replacing the pc, and I was pleased to hear that the new hardware can run those games. That’s exactly what I wanted. I’m really satisfied with your answer. I just want to ask you the total cost for the whole process from the pc to the building & upgrade? Also How often does it need to be upgraded, and what are the expected costs for each upgrade? Can one upgrade run almost every game perfectly, or at least most of them? Lastly, is there a team that knows what each game needs to run perfectly, where you can just specify the type of game or its name and they do the job for you? Or do you need to do it yourself and buy each part of the upgrade individually? I'm asking this because I'm not familiar with it and can't figure out which upgrade parts I should buy. So it would be nice and easier if a team could do it for me for a fee. Thank you once again.
@@spiderman3309 Oh and I forgot to say, your last question about how to know what you need for a game to run; At the bottom of every game on steam, it lists out the hardware requirements. It lists the specs you need for minimum graphics settings, and also what they actually recommend you have.
There really isn't much of a difference if you don't mod games or do other work on a pc. Since you'll probably update your parts every new console generation the latest, and every half generation the earliest. I do both.
@luxnoria I do other stuff, I mod, I want to be able to just have all my games on one thing, I want access to more games, better vr experience, and the games perform/look way better.
@@tomaliothetomato439 If you use a console for gaming then all the games are on one thing. It's only if you split yourself between pc and console. But hey least on console you don't need to download multiple launchers. I've not done vr since vr is expensive anywhere and it's not worth it imo. My pc is mostly just for youtube and work. I've noticed no performance difference between my pc and ps5, but with very few select high end games there is a graphical difference. But since I rarely play super high end games. (Since I find most of them pretty generic) That's not a selling point for me. I'm not a graphics fanboy just a gameplay one.
It makes sense if you just want simplicity. I've had my fair share of games that just won't launch on pc for seemingly no reason only to find there is no helpful info out there for my issue. I love pc and wouldn't trade it for anything but it's by no means perfect
Not to mention all the glorious modding for games like Skyrim, Fallout, Cyberpunk, Witcher, Star Wars Jedi, Star Wars Battlefront, Spiderman, GTA V... and the ability to play different genres that rarely are available on consoles like MMO's or Custom Servers like GTA FiveM or GrandRP
At $80 up front per year, or $120 per year if you pay monthly, while using conservative estimates and saying five years per console generation, that's about $400 IN ADDITION to your $500 console bringing it to almost a grand. That's before the cost of games and such. Like, bare minimum. The argument that PC's are more expensive is made using very substandard financial understandings. Sure, up front, right now, you're paying about $650 ($500 for the console, $10 for the internet, $60 per game, let's say you got two games) but in the long run you're paying out the ass. People who buy consoles don't think of money like that though, because most folks live paycheck to paycheck. Long-term investments are simply calculus/theoretical physics to them. I wish folks would consider taking the money they would normally use to buy their laptop (everyone has a PC/laptop these days), tack on the cost of the console they'd usually buy, and get themselves a decent rig instead.

Not only that, but also the fact that you can build up your steam library and still be able to play those games 10 years later, unlike PlayStation or xbox, I can't grab an old PS2 or Xbox game and expect for it to work on the new consoles, not only that, but the upgrade ability is amazing, I can't go out and buy a 2 or 300 buck part for a console like I can with a PC, and then you have consoles, oh? You want an upgrade? Here, buy this new console!
Do you need 1 build up/set up to play every kinda game old and new or you will have to rebuild again? I mean if it's one time job i'd consider choosing it over any console!!
Is that why old games on new PC's need so much troubleshooting? widescreen fixes? just had to delete Mafia 2 cause it had a slow-motion bug. You PC gamers are liars. Couldn't play Quake 4 cause it had a texture bug on new systems. Stop lying.
@@Disconnect350I literally fixed many issues games had by just replacing files which are available on Google that too on my old ass laptop you don't have to be programmer to fix many of the issues unless they are from dev side and many times just doing a re-install works don't know what are you on also with few tweaks and settings you can play any game from any era
I was on consoles for many years because I didn't have money for a PC or really anything that made what I had more appealing, but since being able to afford a PC I use it infinitely more than my Xbox series x. Damn near every game I've played has been maxed out and running well over 100 fps and most maxing out my monitor. Take cyberpunk for instance, I've finished it a couple times in console, but since playing it on PC the world feels way more alive. It's really impressive what PC is able to do

You don’t have to for free games on consoles, had a console for years and never once paid for one and still was able to play fortnite and other such games
Some would say they like something simple for the living room, but personally i just use steam link/ moonshine to my tv and it works near perfectly. Although its streaming, the latency is very small
Built a $1200 PC ten years ago and it still holds up, though I will be building a new one soon. In those ten years, I spent around $1200 on consoles so I think you’re fine with either route. I will make the point though that your PS5 can’t run photoshop or blender, so go with PC if you want to be able to be creative on your system.
I have built my first pc, and most of my time with it has been trying to get it to work, i have lost track of how many times i have had to reinstal drivers, or even the OS after system recovery was not able to fix my problems, but i recognise that my situation is not very common
I would include not having to pay for online multiplayer, able to do other things than just game. Bringing your library to future pc builds . No need for retro compatibility with older games. If you own older games there’s emulators. So it’s definitely worth getting into.
And the fact that with PC you gradually upgrade parts instead of tossing out the old gen console and buy a new one. Therefore you can play the same games now matter how old and from what «generation» they’re from!
That part about upscaling is so real and didn’t realize it til I tried playing games like battlefield and the outer worlds on PC after it looked like fuzz on Xbox

No, steam just built an empire on discounts and good service and that is why Gabe is the patron saint of gaming
Steam does have lots of discounts but you still don't technically own any game you purchase
Because owning games physically has so much more benefits, like... Not having to download them and... Yeah thats about it
@@Ryujihh the advantage is that they can’t be taken away. You don’t need an internet connection to play with no need to set up an offline mode.
Steam prices are garbage
@@Ryujihhhuge advantage especially if you like to travel. Though as long as you aren’t playing a strictly online only game, you can still play games offline on steam. It’s more of the what if aspect. Dudes getting old and no telling which direction steam could take 5 years from now if he was to pass away. If the website shuts down what if the millions of dollars that has been spent on that platform? My opinion is that is highly unlikely. But many benefits to owning the game or having an offline launcher to install what ever game you’re trying to install.
With PC you don't have to trash the old one for a new game that has higher system requirement, you just need to change the component that's causing the problem
Console games are designed to work on an entire generation.
You can only work with a motherboard chipset so much before needing to replace that for use with newer/different CPU generation/brand if upgrading.
Then you have to consider if so much use on a power supply denotes buying a new one, especially if you need more wattage than previously.
Then you probably should get around to upgrading the RAM since it's slower and last gen at this point.
Then ya obviously gotta drop a newer, probably more power hungry GPU in, unless you're rocking a flagship GPU from a few years back.
Then you look at it and say: "nice, didn't have to replace my case, but damn I probably should anyway".

Can you play modded games on a console?
You can but it is very hard, not very common
Only on games where modding is supported
Depends, you can on the ps4 but, it’s a very old console and you’d be stuck at 1080p unless you bought a ps4 pro for like $300 but even then it’s still a old console. Plus it’s gonna be used since only older firmares can play modded games. Stuff like that usually turns into a hobby.
consoles usually just get mod menus and the mods approved by Xbox and ps5 its still limited

@@daviddutch8652 a laptop is a pc
another big advantage is that your not forced to buy the whole device at once. take your time and hunt for deals on parts. when you have a good setup you can decimate a console with just a GPU upgrade. note timing is important. GPUs have a 2 year release cycle buy a flagship card near end of it and you could easily be stuck with a hot potato.
Not really. A high end GPU may lose about half its resale value shortly after you buy it because the new GPU generation drops, but even my 6900xt has between a $450-550 resale value. It also still performs exceptionally well in most titles. Due to fsr and dlss even the lower end gpus are keeping their resell value as they can take advantage of upscaling.
You can take your time to save up but it depends on whether the upgrade you are making is a generational one or not. You may have to buy a CPU along with that GPU to avoid bottlenecking if upgrading. Depending on the generation of the CPU, you may need to buy a whole new MOBO cause you're now buying the CPU to avoid bottlenecking and if the old cooler you have is not compatible with the new CPU/MOBO you may even need to buy a whole new cooler or a bracket that can make the cooler compatible with the new CPU/MOBO. Also new RAM as well due to new generation MOBO/CPU. Also if you don't have a PSU that has enough power to support the GPU you may have to buy a new PSU as well. So basically a whole new build besides the SSD/HDD unless you plan on keeping your old rig and building a whole new one, you'll have to buy one of those at the very least too.
@@JVPlayz96 Or you plan for that, get a psu with more power than you need and a good cpu, while bottlenecking your gpu for a year or so and then switch to a great setup :)
Once you get a good setup, you don't really need to upgrade for 5-6 years.
I bought my PC with a 1080 and an i7-7700k in 2018 and I'm only now getting to the point I'm thinking about upgrading, while still playing most games at high-ultra. It would have taken longer if I had a 1080 ti, but I'm really feeling the missing vram 😅
Yea majority of people don’t have time or desire to do that. If they made pcs at the same price point without all the extra junk I would get it. I don’t want internet explorer, I don’t want Microsoft. Which means I don’t want to mess with all that garbage. I want to play games. Period. Sony gives me that simplicity
How is that an advantage??? I build my PC and looking for parts was a nightmare. Making sure the parts have good reviews from users, decent price, etc. it was a terrible, stressful experience. You PC gamers have weird way of thinking.

@@badtopvm3156 Wait, what games require a sub? I just use Steam and don't play MMO's so maybe I'm out of the loop? I still think ya'll underestimate the yearly costs of paying for premium internet. $80 up front or $120 a year if you go monthly, let's be conservative and say five years per console lifespan, that's $400. On top of your $500-$600 console, putting it at an actual grand ($1000) per generation. That's before the cost of your games, and let's be real, all PC gamers have played cracked games either because they can or times are tough. That's without the insane sales Steam has several times a year where the big publishers knock 30%, 50%, sometimes 80%/90% off their games. I know console gamers like to huff and puff about "stealing", but it's a reality and an optional bonus we engage in. *shrug*
I had purchased maybe six games total on Steam over the course of fiteen years for my PC (couldn't play online with a cracked copy and they were multiplayer only). I pirated literally every other game I played. It wasn't until Steam Deck that I started buying them out on convenience and I'm currently sitting on a 436 game library with a grand total of $1005 spent according to my account. That's basically $2 per game. There simply isn't an argument to be made. PC's are cheaper in every way.

The implication that a console is "close" when I still can't overclock it, change out the memory safely without harming the device, or add more than 5TB without making it unstable, is not in fact "closer" to PC. Its still about as far as its always been.
Lets look at the PS5 pro.
It has: 2tb of memory rated around 7200mbps transfer speed
- 4k 120hz, HDMI 2.1 out support (supersampled from 1440p usually)
- Expandable up to 5TB m.2 storage.
- CPU clocked to 16 threads @ 3.5 Ghz (3.7 turbo boost avg)
- No memory bus expansion slots or PCIE slots
- no dedicated DAC in its sound card for higher audio processing
- 16GB of GDR6 VRAM at 440gb speeds
- wifi 6/7 and costs $499-799
Lets look at my pc now! Mind you its 5 years old almost.
It has: - 8TB of memory and room for about 3 more hard drives and 1 more SATA/ SSD and 1 m.2, so in theory, 500+ TB is available to place.
- Expandable power supply and memory, 4k60 out, 90hz refresh rate, and choices to expand that
- CPU clocked at 8 cores/16 threads @ 4.41 Ghz (4.6 Turbo with a tower cooler + 4 fans vs a consoles 1 or 2 fans and no wider cooler)
- Plenty of room for extra crap
- Dedicated sound card, dedicated audio DAC, and optical/digital audio and video in/out, plus DP and HDMI 2.0
- 6x USB v3.0 slots and 2x USB-C thunderbolt ports (consoles have neither or 1 of each nowadays)
- 24GB of GDR5 memory vs the pros 16GB of GDR6 VRAM
My pc cost me $550 not including monitor and speakers.
Tell me again how those are close? I'll wait.
Its like 60% of the way there vs PC. Close and almost only count in horseshoe and throwing grenades.
PCs are way cheaper than consoles if you know what the hell you're doing. I once demonstrated how easy a good PC is to make by showing my friends a mockup PC made from ebay parts.
The specs were:
A dell optiplex 9020 base PC which had a 3.5 GHz processor, 8 gb of ram, and a 500 gb drive already in the PC.
An rtx 2060
An extra 16 gb of ram
And a 1 tb SSD
The PC cost less than $350 including shipping
Think about that $170 you saved plus the online service.
Two AAA games and a few indie titles and, depending upon how long you play online, up to $500 more!
Additionally, you can upgrade it and sell the old parts instead of buying a new console.
@@funnyfatseals545 Plus the whole point of the video is missed when you establish the cost issue; a console now is only as powerful as the main desktop market was 5 years ago. Sure its a big leap from the PS1 era being 4x weaker but its still 75% of the power of a home PC at the same price point, which is promising, but not equitable.
Great explaination! what was the monitor and speakers cost tho?
I like to know where you got a GPU with 24 GB of vram while still keeping your build at $500, all while having 8 terabytes of storage.
Because right now this sounds like cap.
Comparing pure numbers on PC hardware vs console is BS. Console soft is optimised for a particular setup while on PC it needs to work wth pretty much everything. Also, your Windows will also use tons of resources, the way the system funnels data through the kernel into (V)Ram is different and way more efficient on consoles.
As a person who went from a hardcore xbox player, to a pc player, I would have rather sold my xbox and games just to the functionality of a pc
Also you don't have to replace it every 2 years and get like 30-50% of the original price when you do sell it.

May i know what kinda PC do you have? I'm currently at a point where to choose which one should i buy console or Pc. But i like your siding with pc and now i want to know the type you have.
@@spiderman3309 @spiderman3309 Well, I have two (This actually goes into another reason I prefer PC that I'll get into in a minute). My "original" PC hardware is an i7-8700, 2070 Super, and 32gb 2666MHz DDR4 memory. My "new" PC is an i7-12700k, 3080 Ti, and 32gb 6000MHz DDR5 memory (You should go for 32gb if you're using DDR5, it can actually be more cost effective than 16gb. If you're using DDR4, you probably won't need 32gb, but for what I do, I need it.)
Originally, I had just swapped my 2070 Super for a 3080 Ti, then a few months later I bought new memory, motherboard, and CPU. I was able to then put the "original" PC back together in a new case, and it became my living room PC.
I wanted to specify the two different PCs because it's something that's worth pointing out. Your parts will never be obsolete. They will always have a purpose. People who upgraded from PS4 to PS5 probably never touch that console again, because it's not getting the newest games. Don't even get me started on PS3s going to landfills.
But with PC, my "old" PC hardware still works just as well as it did before the upgrade. While my biggest reason for PC gaming is that my new hardware can still play my old games, my old hardware can still play my new games as well. Eventually, way down the road when I upgrade my 12700k and 3080 Ti, this PC will be the new living room PC, and my 8700 and 2070 Super might go to my niece, or I might turn it into a server for local cloud storage.
I'm down to answer more questions if you have any. I've spent a lot of time figuring out what I like more about each platform lol
@@spiderman3309 Oh not to mention that you get to keep your game libraries across different kinds of PCs. Laptops, Steam Decks, etc. If you had a console and then decided to buy a gaming laptop or a Steam Deck for portability, you'd have to buy a whole new library of games.
@@kreeperskid dude, Thank you so much for this detailed response; you explained everything excellently. Of course, the main reason I wanted the PC is that I can play older games without replacing the pc, and I was pleased to hear that the new hardware can run those games. That’s exactly what I wanted. I’m really satisfied with your answer. I just want to ask you the total cost for the whole process from the pc to the building & upgrade?
Also How often does it need to be upgraded, and what are the expected costs for each upgrade? Can one upgrade run almost every game perfectly, or at least most of them?
Lastly, is there a team that knows what each game needs to run perfectly, where you can just specify the type of game or its name and they do the job for you?
Or do you need to do it yourself and buy each part of the upgrade individually?
I'm asking this because I'm not familiar with it and can't figure out which upgrade parts I should buy. So it would be nice and easier if a team could do it for me for a fee.
Thank you once again.
@@spiderman3309 Oh and I forgot to say, your last question about how to know what you need for a game to run; At the bottom of every game on steam, it lists out the hardware requirements. It lists the specs you need for minimum graphics settings, and also what they actually recommend you have.
Pc is so much better
true!
As someone who usually plays on Console I don’t think I wanna be a gamer at all anymore after knowing these facts.
Am I reading that shirt correctly 😂
$280 Xbox S for a causal gamer is absolutely worth it over a dedicated PC game machine.
I have officially retired from being a diehard console gamer. Waiting for my new and improved pc to be ready.
You have made a choice that will last a lifetime
There really isn't much of a difference if you don't mod games or do other work on a pc. Since you'll probably update your parts every new console generation the latest, and every half generation the earliest.
I do both.
@luxnoria I do other stuff, I mod, I want to be able to just have all my games on one thing, I want access to more games, better vr experience, and the games perform/look way better.
@@tomaliothetomato439 If you use a console for gaming then all the games are on one thing. It's only if you split yourself between pc and console. But hey least on console you don't need to download multiple launchers.
I've not done vr since vr is expensive anywhere and it's not worth it imo. My pc is mostly just for youtube and work.
I've noticed no performance difference between my pc and ps5, but with very few select high end games there is a graphical difference. But since I rarely play super high end games. (Since I find most of them pretty generic) That's not a selling point for me. I'm not a graphics fanboy just a gameplay one.
@@luxnoria all games are not on every console and Pc has infinitely more games.
It really doesn't make sense to buy an Xbox over PC.
I travel from city to city for work. A console is portable and easy to move around. I need something small so it makes sense for me
It makes sense if you just want simplicity. I've had my fair share of games that just won't launch on pc for seemingly no reason only to find there is no helpful info out there for my issue. I love pc and wouldn't trade it for anything but it's by no means perfect
@@jameybobamey7343 gaming laptops or mini gaming pcs are a great option, plenty there to chose from though probably not the best bang for your buck
the price...
I like how he understands how the free market works and is a benefit to consumers. Subbed.
Not to mention all the glorious modding for games like Skyrim, Fallout, Cyberpunk, Witcher, Star Wars Jedi, Star Wars Battlefront, Spiderman, GTA V... and the ability to play different genres that rarely are available on consoles like MMO's or Custom Servers like GTA FiveM or GrandRP
Who the f buy games we pirate them here😂😂
Woahhhhhh, you're a pirate!
You forgot that pc can play online anytime everytime and for free with no monthly/yearly subscriptions
At $80 up front per year, or $120 per year if you pay monthly, while using conservative estimates and saying five years per console generation, that's about $400 IN ADDITION to your $500 console bringing it to almost a grand. That's before the cost of games and such. Like, bare minimum. The argument that PC's are more expensive is made using very substandard financial understandings. Sure, up front, right now, you're paying about $650 ($500 for the console, $10 for the internet, $60 per game, let's say you got two games) but in the long run you're paying out the ass. People who buy consoles don't think of money like that though, because most folks live paycheck to paycheck. Long-term investments are simply calculus/theoretical physics to them. I wish folks would consider taking the money they would normally use to buy their laptop (everyone has a PC/laptop these days), tack on the cost of the console they'd usually buy, and get themselves a decent rig instead.
@@todaysdesperadohatesavocad7109 there are people that are ready to pay for the long term as long as it doesn't break the bank, I as someone who bought a ps5 slim bought it not because I like ps5 exclusive titles but Because PC parts were more expensive plus I don't have a place or a monitor for it which kind of sucked because I consider versatility over specialty which pc offer and is made for it
@@todaysdesperadohatesavocad7109 can you plz recommend a type of pc that is not too expensive and at the same time can do all the work that a console would?
Not going to lie I was a heavy console guy until I came to my senses and built my first gaming PC a few years ago and haven’t look back I still like my PS5 but PC opened up my eyes to a whole lot.
What was the cost to build yours tho? And does it compatible for every game old and new ones?
@@spiderman3309why wouldn't it be?
I was about to go balistic in the comments hearing the first part of the video 😂
For me another thing is free titles and community modding there are so many cool little things you can do
W pcs and L consoles
W's everywhere!
Not only that, but also the fact that you can build up your steam library and still be able to play those games 10 years later, unlike PlayStation or xbox, I can't grab an old PS2 or Xbox game and expect for it to work on the new consoles, not only that, but the upgrade ability is amazing, I can't go out and buy a 2 or 300 buck part for a console like I can with a PC, and then you have consoles, oh? You want an upgrade? Here, buy this new console!
Do you need 1 build up/set up to play every kinda game old and new or you will have to rebuild again? I mean if it's one time job i'd consider choosing it over any console!!
You absolutely can Grab an Old Xbox Game and Play it on the newest one. Even original xbox Games are running, aswel as xbox 360 and xbox one games.
Cross gen compatibility doesn't exist ig
Is that why old games on new PC's need so much troubleshooting? widescreen fixes? just had to delete Mafia 2 cause it had a slow-motion bug. You PC gamers are liars. Couldn't play Quake 4 cause it had a texture bug on new systems. Stop lying.
@@Disconnect350I literally fixed many issues games had by just replacing files which are available on Google that too on my old ass laptop you don't have to be programmer to fix many of the issues unless they are from dev side and many times just doing a re-install works don't know what are you on also with few tweaks and settings you can play any game from any era
I was on consoles for many years because I didn't have money for a PC or really anything that made what I had more appealing, but since being able to afford a PC I use it infinitely more than my Xbox series x. Damn near every game I've played has been maxed out and running well over 100 fps and most maxing out my monitor. Take cyberpunk for instance, I've finished it a couple times in console, but since playing it on PC the world feels way more alive. It's really impressive what PC is able to do
What type of pc do you have and what is the overall cost to build it?
Remember that you can't do your homework on a console
We dont live in 2000 anymore… ppl have pc or laptop for some tasks but play on consoles cuz like to have a comfy couch session and in games with no crossplay u avoid pc cheaters 😉
Yeah you can do high refreshrate but 95% of console players play on a TV which is 99% of the time locked at 60hz with insanely high latency 😅
That shirt is wild
agreed, paying for an internet connection you already have is outrageous
You don’t have to for free games on consoles, had a console for years and never once paid for one and still was able to play fortnite and other such games
dont forget about the monthly internet subscirption like why does that exist
Some would say they like something simple for the living room, but personally i just use steam link/ moonshine to my tv and it works near perfectly. Although its streaming, the latency is very small
Built a $1200 PC ten years ago and it still holds up, though I will be building a new one soon. In those ten years, I spent around $1200 on consoles so I think you’re fine with either route. I will make the point though that your PS5 can’t run photoshop or blender, so go with PC if you want to be able to be creative on your system.
I have built my first pc, and most of my time with it has been trying to get it to work, i have lost track of how many times i have had to reinstal drivers, or even the OS after system recovery was not able to fix my problems, but i recognise that my situation is not very common
Never mind the massively widened games library - the PC is just more versatile and has more uses.
How did I get into your house?? You put a camera there you silly goose!! 🤭
I got my series x for $350. Not much can beat that.
“How did you get into my house?”
Door was unlocked…
I would include not having to pay for online multiplayer, able to do other things than just game. Bringing your library to future pc builds . No need for retro compatibility with older games. If you own older games there’s emulators. So it’s definitely worth getting into.
Also...modding! The most beautiful thing for a PC gamer
I'm just gonna say one word, mods... Ok, I'm gonna set that down right here, and I'll see you later.
I don't have time for a gaming PC, but I appreciate its potential.
Not to mention, it do basically ANYTHING!
“High refresh rates”, like 60Hz, lol
And the fact that with PC you gradually upgrade parts instead of tossing out the old gen console and buy a new one. Therefore you can play the same games now matter how old and from what «generation» they’re from!
That part about upscaling is so real and didn’t realize it til I tried playing games like battlefield and the outer worlds on PC after it looked like fuzz on Xbox
"Consoles are cheaper than PC"
PS5 Pro: Are you sure about that?
