Damn son, look at that rig! It can run both Uncharted and GT Sports at 60fps and 4k.

OT: dont fall for posts like this. If you want to get it why PC gaming is special get ready to pay 1000$ or more, otherwise go with a console. Thats the sour truth that the wast ajority of PC gamers simply do not want to accept. If you have money for both, go for both, but I guess thats not the case.

To be fair, PCs does have its own exclusives so exclusives are dependent on the taste of the user...

Also to be fair, you don't actually need $1000 either... While I don't agree with toot's build cause he is really squeezing it and omiting some things, the GPU that the ps4 pro has is a downclocked 480 which DF used to test their benchmarks of the Pro. So an actual 480 would perform similar to the ps4 Pro with the exception of some unoptimized games. I would say a $600-$650 usd PC should be able take on a ps4 pro. But certainly not a $400 one.

And both have advantages/disadvantages.

SOme of my all time favorite games are PC exclusives, I just wanted to point out that there are simply some AAA franchises that do not make it over (lets be honest, a whole lot of them) to PC. And yes, I also agree that you do not need a 1000$ PC to beat a PS4P. But IMO if you really want to get the best out of PC gaming, a more expensive rig is a must. Simply talking out of my own experience. Untill I had a stable job, I had to find thge cheapest solutions for PC-s. After having some cash to throw around, the experience was an eye opener for me. Just my 2 cents.
