Um, folks...that's not my list...as I said, that was just second link on my "Scorpio equivalent PC" search, since I was too lazy yesterday to make one of my own.

But...it seemed fairly decent for what the OP wanted..."Could help us figure out the price of the system".

Now maybe I misunderstood the purpose of the thread, but that's what I had in mind...cause that list is, more or less, balancing out, IMO, differences in price - yeah, GPU is bit weaker, but CPU is way stronger and there is 12GB of DDR3 + 4GB of GDDR5 vs 12GB of GDDR5 in Scorpio.

Plus, these are all retail prices, actual prices are way lower (I remember someone, I think it was Dahuman, posted way, way back in days, when we were speculating about what might be in PS4, some actual prices of different components that platform holders are paying).

So, again, maybe I misunderstood OP's intention, but this was not actually about PC that will run exactly the same as Scorpio, but finding out how much Scorpio might cost.

No you are wrong, the system he made has the CHEAP 4GB 480RX in it and its a gaming machine, sure cpu is more powerfull but it won't do much since the graphics card has half the memory available, a smaller memory bus, lower memory speed, less processing cores and lower amount of overall performance.

On a gaming level the pc he made will not come close to the Xbox Scorpio and will actually sit closer to the PS4 pro instead, DDR3 ram how many you put in it won't make up for the difference because its a pc the memory isn't shared and exctending memory from the VRAM to other components will slow the game down to a crawl because unlike consoles pc hardware are multiple seperate parts working togheter where the cpu and gpu are baked on one chip on all current consoles.

THere is a night and day difference between the two. if you would take a 480RX with 8GB and the best possible fan to overclock it to match the Tflops you would have a scenario where its closer, still not as good in 4K but should match the scorpio in other scenario's but he didn't do that
