He said that 1TB hard drive + Bluray player would cost $200 more while it only costed $60 more and the hard drive was 7200RPM vs ps4 pro's 5400 and the Bluray player could play UHD Blurays while the ps4 pro can't lmao. It ended up costing the same cause I went for a cheaper hard drive than the one I initally chose and lowered the PSU from 650W to 550W. It just goes to show he has no clue about PC gaming or the prices. |
Honestly though, we hardly even have a need for such a drive, especially with how we get more streaming services. I mean I still get BR discs for my BR player, but I've never felt a need to shell out for one to slap into my PC.
At the end of the day though, you were able to show that we've got different options of hardware to shoot for price/perf wise, with the pro you have that single samey drive with the same R/W speed, same goes for the other parts of it's kit. That JF vid I linked even comes up with a build that performs better than the Pro, and it costs about £150 less than mine (that mine used to cost back in 2015).
I still think it's stupid to compare a £400 box to a 1-2k machine though. The point of the thread on trying to say cheap/some good perf>expensive but superb performance just ended up going to shit. For me I'll always want to shoot for the higher end experience, the lower end is a non factor to me though, but that's just me (there are peeps out there who love their small form factors with mid range hw for example).
Step right up come on in, feel the buzz in your veins, I'm like an chemical electrical right into your brain and I'm the one who killed the Radio, soon you'll all see
So pay up motherfuckers you belong to "V"
