The amount of NEW PCs sold in one month then PS4 has sold in almost 2 years (290 million sold last year).. Even the "slowed" sales of PCs .. Yes not all of them are "pc gaming" PCs.. but either way.. well more then 100 million PCs out there will benefit from DX12.. The USERBASE for DX12 is at minumum 5 times greater then PS4.. Steam itself has over 100 million users.. and that doesn't represent every gamer in the world.. so. yeah..
PS4 = Small Userbase
DX12 = Massive worldwide userbase..

Yeah, but just to compare relative sales of many cross platform games (let's use the latest CoD as an example), the PS4 outsells the the PC and XB1 combined. Probably because of competition with established PC titles that can't be converted to console like LOL/WoW/etc and the fact that many PC gamers see criss platform games as watered down the way many console gamers see mobile games.
And that gap will only grow.
