Gaming - CONSOLEs vs PC - View Post

I'll give PC one thing, when my GPU's hardware T&L chip burned out, some games allowed me to play on by disabling it in the settings. Others turned into a corrupt mess on screen. A console would have to be sent in for repairs.


What graphics card did you have that the T&L chip burned out?

The kinda "breakdown" you are referring to heer only applies if you are trying to educate someone on what to buy and why. That is not what this thread is about. Yet you keep hammering on it.


Of course I keep hammering about it, you keep missing the point by miles.

It's not about educating soemone on what they should buy or why, it's so you can get a fair representation of all the platforms, it's that simple.  Oranges to Oranges, Apple's to Apple's.
And considering "Price" seems to be the largest reason gamers in this thread have chosen "Consoles" it seems like a good data point to start from.

You know, I'm just going to keep repeating this same horn, so if you wish to keep going around in circles... By all means.

You can clearly see that the cost of the PS4 APu costs arpund $121. Mind you thats a CPU+GPU. This is also why i refrained from using the actual cost breakdown of the PS4 and just rounded up to the cost of the hardware. Cause as I said, so doing will make it unfair for a PC cause it would mean that the PS4 should only be compared with a CPU+GPU that costs no more than $121-$200.

Fantastic, we are finally getting somewhere.
Now do a break-down of a similar-equipped PC.

Then, do a breakdown of the accessories.

Then do a breakdown of the services.

Then do a breakdown on the software.

Then we can apply Performance/Image Quality to Dollars.

Sigh... I can't believe that you don't realize you are actually agreeing with me.



If you think I was agreeing with you, then you should have gone to specsavers.
