A PC, sure. A great PC? Er... em... $1,000, sure.

You pay a premium for sucky prebuilts when with bit of work and some research (assuming you've never done it before) you can build your own far better PC with decent specs for 700.

pcpartpicker.com is your friend

Where's the list with the same or better raytracing, upscaling, 2TB nvme, DDR5, all of that without having to fuck around with settings and shit for <$700

Drop the method 🙏

When realistically do you make use of 100% of what the PS5 has to offer? Specially shit like Raytracing? Or can realistically feel the difference between DDR4 and DDR5?

Unless you're some sort of developer that works on low level (or particularly lazy game developer that has to squeeze every bit of graphics to hide the fact the gameplay sucks), you won't see the difference between any FPS above 240(even 120 depending on your monitor)

Not to mention, remove gaming from the list, what else can you do with the PS5? Because boy, the list for what you can do with a computer without gaming is absolute huge

1st block: When I'm playing games on it? It's main purpose? And yeah I think I can notice the difference between an older and newer gen of memory. Cuz the game'll perform better.

2nd block: ok

3rd: I bought the thing to play games on it wtf else I'm gonna use it for? I already have a computer, and most of the things I do on the computer I can do on my phone. But to answer the question, it can play streaming services and blu-rays. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
