GameSpot tried to build a Pc which costs around the same as a console.

Well, this thread has inspired me. (especially when I saw JUST how much cheaper new PC releases are than their PS4 counterparts)

Finally pulled the trigger several years after initially planning to get a PC rig.

Will be putting together an i5 4670 with a GTX 970 GPU. 8gb RAM to start with but will up that over the course of the year :)

So much PC gaming to get caught up on as it's been about 6 years since I last had a PC capable of running games decently. Will play all the gems I missed last gen too but at a proper frame rate.

Happy gaming. While I prefer console gaming over PC gaming at the end of the day it's all about the game.
