I've been building computers for years. I will tell you this much, that you can not build a computer to rival the PS3 graphically for 500$. (mumbo-jumbo) Now you wanna show me how you build a system that can do what the PS3/360 can for 400-600$ Be my guest. |
Wow - for years! I thought I was the only one... Two things I do know for sure: - A 500$ computer will allow me to be far more productive than I ever will be on a PS3 with its Linux and limited RAM for my non-gaming tasks (and before you say anything, the PS3 is not just a game machine - we both can agree on that, right? I mean, with the CELL processor being 10x faster than the average PC and all that...) - A 500$ computer will allow me to play any game released for the PC that came out this year. Actually, my 2-year-old computer still handles Doom3 at 720p with aplomb at high settings, and manages 20fps on ultra settings. Being 2 years old, I reckon it costs much less than 500$. Not too shabby. As for how to build a system that cheap, well, you have years of experience building computers - you go figure that out. |
My PS3 can play Crysis style games. Can your 500$ computer play them? |
That's incredible that your PS3 can play games that aren't even available yet.
I was wrong - I simply cannot argue against logic like that. The PS3 truly is future-proof!
Let me ask you this: Can your PS3 multitask like my 500$ PC can (check my previous post to see what kind of apps I run on a daily basis) ?
Oh, and my 2-year-old PC that was worth 500$... two years ago? I wonder how much something like that would cost today new...
