I honestly believe gaming PCs are becoming niche market

rom the fact that user surveys of hardware show that their rigs are worse than current gen consoles. I wouldn't call those gaming PCs.

So any hardware less than a "current gen console" (PS4 + XBO) ain't no gaming hardware anymore? A PC with a Core2Quad and a GTX 470 or a GTX 560 or GTX 650 or a similar performing AMD-card was a gaming PC until early November, but lost its gaming status a few days after that?    

With that logic, PS3, 360, Wii U, and Wii aren't no "gaming consoles" anymore, too.

I built my PC in 2009/2010. It's no longer up to the standards of gaming PCs. It can handle most things on low/medium settings, but I still wouldn't consider it a gaming PC or myself a big PC gamer.

My PC built in 2011 can handle stuff on high-max. Also current gen consoles basically run games at medium anyways. To suggest otherwise is wrong.
