He's totally correct (although that was probably based on the error on the original recommended requirements for Quantum Break).

The recommended video card for Quantum Break was a NVIDIA GeForce 980 Ti or AMD Radeon R9 Fury X, which cost about $700 (double the cost of an XBox One, which comes with a game and a controller).

Quantumbreak.com has since updated their requirements and moved that spec to their Ultra requirements, and changed the Recommended spec to a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 or AMD Radeon R9 390, which cost about $350.

The internet needs to stop overreacting about silly things.

So minimum specs is an $83 gpu, recommended $340.
But what do you need to make it look the same as on XBox One.

we'll have to wait for digital foundry's analysis.
