This would all be true if MS targeted super high-end gaming pc's and then scale them down for the next gen consoles. With current gen that was easy since the GTX660 was already pretty dated when the ps4/Xone launched and the Jaguar cpu was terrible compared to the average pc cpu's. This time around they are talking about SSD, a zen 2 cpu and a 12Tflops gpu, which is comparable to a $1000 RTX2080. Truth is that 99% of the pc gamers don't have anything close to those kind of specs when they launch, and it can take years before they become main stream on pc. 

Still lying about PC hardware prices? You'll never change.

They are talking about 12Tflops, which if true, puts it between a RTX2080 Super and RTX2080 Ti. Not everyone lives in the US, but over here a 2080Ti sells for almost $1400 and the Super $1000. In any case, it's going to be freaking expensive to buy a gaming rig with the same specs as these new consoles. Especially compared to current gen when you could just buy a GTX750 for $150 and you were good to go. 

Next gen you will need a PCIe 4.0 motherboard, Ryzen CPU, 1TB SSD and at least a RTX2080 Super, just be on par with these next gen consoles, let alone play the latest AAA titles at 144fps in native 4k. This is why I'm excited about next gen and I can't wait to see what games will look like when they're designed around those kind of specs. At least I was, until MS made it clear that they're not targeting those kind of specs at all.
