Seems overly biased.

Guy is overly optomistic....ignoring the massive head start of the 3DS and forgetting that its price and games that sell systems......not hardware specs

EDIT: Oh and contemporary pcs cant even run games like Starcraft 2 on max settings. Just saying, the average PC isnt built for heavy duty gaming.

One year ago, in July 2010, TechSpot did this review.  With an Intel i7-920 running at 3.70GHz, the HD5870 was able to do an average of 60 fps (with a min of 45 fps), on a 2560x1600 res and the settings on Ultra.

Now there are Sandy Bridge CPUs, that run games faster, and the HD6970 or the GTX 580.

Since Vite has not been released yet, what is a contemporary PC for you?

I myself bought a $2000 + Mac Book Pro last Christmas. I cant run Starcraft 2 on max settings without a framerate dip. 

Correct me if I'm wrong, but a 2009 MacBook Pro did sport either a 9400M or a 9600M GPU. Neither of those are good cards for gaming.  



Please excuse my bad English.

Former gaming PC: i5-4670k@stock (for now), 16Gb RAM 1600 MHz and a GTX 1070

Current gaming PC: R5-7600, 32GB RAM 6000MT/s (CL30) and a RX 9060XT 16GB
