PS5 scalpers are now being robbed LMAOOOOOOOOOO

You like to watch, wuell what's this

Its pretty much a fake version of a bad ass computer. m.2 NVMe sold state drive, custom lower grade ryzen processor compiled with emulated ray tracing graphic performance. People need some kind of 120hz tv/monitor to see the real benefit. You need a high performance display to go with the console or you'll be stuck at 60 frames

i don't understand why people bother with consoles. given a comparable priced pc will outperform it and can use the same controllers with.

sure some games will be console only, but that's only because people are buying consoles in the first place.

now couple the consoles high price and expected lifespan (historically) of maybe 2-3 years at max, normally 1 year for most people.

1 year before the chips dry out their thermal paste below the cpu/gpu heat spreader (not the paste on top) and time to fork out another 1000 for another ps5

You can't build anything near comparable to a series x or ps5 right now for the price.

I was a PC gamer since the earlu 90s, but got tired of gfx card prices, compatibility issues, driver issues, rampant cheating in games etc. Also, as a software developer, I already sit at a desk all day. Consoles are a nice compromise for me.

LOL,, you really think a PS5 will cost $1000 in a year??

Maybe about 1/3 of that.

It can be expensive, me myself I've tinkered with the stuff over 10 years trying to keep up on the hardware. I never get top tier stuff but you can really find some nice parts if you know when to buy before they quit making it.

I have the ray tracing part of the puzzle, now I need the other backend to put it all together. I think what would be the most affordable version of hardware would be to go with a 2nd gen ryzen 7 processor that can be overclocked, that along with 3200mhz dd4r ram paired with a nice motherboard capable, can't forget to get that new harddrive that hooks up like a graphics card into GDDR6 PCI x16 lanes. Transfer rates proab gonna be around 1600mbps easy probably more. proabably 16 gb of RAM, I just plan on staying at 1080p and goin for the most frames I can get on a High Performance monitor. I'm set on my PSU 750W suppoose to last 10 years.

I'm looking at like around another 500 dollars still, I'd say It'll cost you atleast 1000 dollars for the real deal but man oh man is it gonna be fucking awesome when you fuinally have all of it combined and functioning. I can't wait
