1600 USD ($2135 CAD where I live). Remember how crypto crash was supposed to make card prices go down?

    pc that costs like 10k can run games slightly better than a console that costs $600 tho

    (or at least i think that's the logic, idk i hate video games)

      Back in around 2015 PC gaming was cheaper for better performance at literally every stage.

      It's still actually cheaper despite all the bullshit inflated prices, it's just got a higher startup cost. Console gaming is so goddamn expensive over time where PC isn't.

        Yeah this. I still believe it is better than consoles but they realized they can squeeze a lot of blood out of high end PC components. PC gamers need to stop being in denial that they're getting gouged especially at the top end.

      A high-spec PC will be substantially more computationally powerful than a console, but 99% of games end up being built for the lowest common denominator anyways.
