Country to what the wannabe PC designers say if you are a serious gamer you are going to spend well over US$1000 on a decent gaming machine |
My PC cost me about $750 after tax with my current hardware (including upgrades.) It plays the Witcher 3 at 1080p High (some Ultra settings) 45 - 50fps, Fallout 4 maxed at 55-60 fps, Dragon Age Inquisition maxed at locked 30 fps, Watch Dogs high/very high locked at 30 fps, emulates PS2, Wii, GC games flawlessly, etc, etc.
Here's the hardware:
i5 4690k @ 4.4 Ghz ($210)
r9 280x ($200)
8 GB DDR3 1600mhz ($50)
240 GB SSD ($70)
ASROCK Z97 Motherboard ($90)
1 TB HDD ($45)
Osrock Case ($40)
Corsair 500 W PSU ($20)
Keyboard and Mouse ($20)
Operating System (free, but windows 7 keys can be found for $20)
Today you can buy a PC that outpaces this quite decently for the same price. And my PC already decently outpaces the PS4 by about 30% better performance depending on the application. If i cut out extras (like my HDD or SSD) and went for a cheaper CPU this PC would still perform better than the PS4 for less than $600.

Unless you have MSDN, you just admitted to being a pirate and proved half why so many build costs are wrong (for people that aren't douchebag pirates).
To get a legit version of a current OS it usually costs $100-150.

Any PC / Part provider gives Windows for 20$ or even free. I always get one when I build a new PC and it always the up to date version.
Your post is borderline honestly, saying that guy is a pirate and then saying they are douchebags... While I completly agree with the fact that pirating is bad, this post was not needed and was just an attack toward Sc94597.
