actually you can get a quality HDTV for around under $500..still cheaper than the 8k :)

PC gamer that still uses SDTV.. tsk tsk

 

Yeah and you can make a PC for about as cheap that will run Crysis better than what it cost you to buy your HDTV and your console.

 

I don't watch TVs and I don't give a shit about graphics so why would I blow money on something so useless?

 

Yet another PC myth.

PS3 = 399 bucks

---

Intel DX58SO Motherboard = $240

Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 = $150

Sapphire Radeon HD 4850 = $150

Corsair XMS2 Xtreme Performance 4GB PC2-6400 DDR2 DIMM = $50

Cooler Master HAF 932 Black Full Tower = $150

Samsung Spinpoint F1 1TB Hard Drive = $100

Antec P/S 500W ATX12V 2.01 PS/2 SIZE DUAL 12V OUTPUTS = $50

Logitech Cordless Desktop EX 100 Keyboard Mouse Combo = $30

LG Electronics GGW-H20L Black Dual Layer BD-RE Writer/HD DVD-ROM = $230

= 1150 bucks

 

Whoa now I fully outperform a PS3 for just nearly thrice the price, awesome!

 

 

 

He said "you can make a PC for about as cheap that will run Crysis better than what it cost you to buy your HDTV and your console." ...

Now, this may not be the fairest comparison because the PC is refurbished but for $850 (Canadian, about $700 US) you can get a 21 inch monitor and a PC that can play Crysis ( http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/proddetail.asp?sku_id=BDL10003303&logon=&langid=EN )

 

Anyways, most PC gamers on a budget pick up their hardware when there is a deal (sale, rebate, refurbished) ... Over the past year I have watched one of my friends rebuild his entire system (Motherboard, CPU, Memory, Graphics Card and Case) for about $400 and he can play Crysis at a decent resolution, so the PS3's performance at the price is far from amazing.
