  You will also most likely still make that difference back over the cycle of one console generation through better game deals and no subscription fees for online play.

      For Xbox its a little bit easier since they launched ID@xbox and pushed it the last few years. Not perfect, but way better than Sony

    I’m still a PC player through and through, but I will say that the game subscriptions that give you access to AAA games (albeit sometimes a bit after launch) is pretty enticing. Obviously you get better sales and whatnot through Steam, but not having to shell out 50-70 dollars for a new game is pretty cool.

        My roommate mentioned there was a price increase recently. It is pretty pricey.

  It is nowhere near 1500.

  More like 800.

  For a nice PC that will last you a while 1100 (for like a 9600 + 9060XT)

    I would say a console killer has to outperform a current gen console. A Xbox Series X has a GPU equivalent to something between a 9060XT and a 9070XT. So yeah in total 1100€ is probably gonna get you something comparable.

      Every guide I’ve seen says even a 9060XT 16gb is very overkill compared to consoles.
