It already happened before PS4/xbox one came out:

BF4 graphics on PC are sometimes breathtaking beautifull..

Clearly thats not running on a PC from 2006, so whats the point?

Because he said PS4, not PS3. This computer is most definately 2013. :)

Actually he did say PS3 (also in the thread title), he also said 512mb RAM.

Here are the PS3's results many years after its launch....getting better and better.

Even If we allow a PC from 2006 to have 1GB of ram for windows xp, it still wont run many games the PS3 is running today, and thats because of my point made previously....which one of the hundreds of thousands of PC builds to developers optimise their games for?

The same way, if you buy a PC today with a PS4 equavalent GPU (7970), it may do better than a PS4 for a year, but you will have paid more for the system, and it wont last as long as a PS4.

realistically, maintaining a PC that can continue to outperform a console every year is not a viable option for most people, yet if you were to find a thread for PS3 vs PC for every year since its launch, you will find that the PC fans use newer builds all the time to prove its power which is just stupid.

tip of the hat to someone else who read the OP.

I do wonder tho if it wasn't even for the sake of getting DX11 gfx card how much would a PC have cost in 2005 which would run the likes of CoD:Ghosts or even the exclusives like Halo4/Forza 4(horizons) or The last of us lvls of graphics? it definately would not be at this side of 1k

edit - Keep in mind the PS3 has 256mb of system memory, the 512 is the total including whats wedged onto its Reality Synthesizer GPU

"The PS3 has 256MB of Rambus XDR DRAM, clocked at CPU die speed.

The GPU is clocked at 550 MHz and makes use of 256 MB GDDR3 RAM clocked at 700 MHz." - copy pasta from wiki.
