No its not expensive to run games at 1080p/60, majority of PCs can achieve that. My old PC made in 2009 was running games at that level and it was a 1k build. In 2017 you could spend half that and have something way more powerful. Also all PCs are future proof, because all games are BC, weather you want to play them at max settings is a different story. Also note many PC games are vastly superiour. Majority of my Steam games have 4k options etc which is a massive jump alone compared to there console versions. PCs dont need exclusives when they house the best versions of 3rd party games which is most of the market. PC gamers arent kicking themselves over 1 or 2 1st party games made by MS or Sony and most times there 1st party games are average at best. |
If you can build a 1080p 60 FPS PC that will run every new AAA game like that for the next four years, then make a list on PCpartpicker and do it. Don't forget the operating system, cost of shipping the parts, and you need at least a 1TB harddrive (otherwise you're just deleting and reinstalling games too often.) Finally every part needs to be actually available to buy, and not just listed. If a part is out of stock it doesn't count. As per your post your price limit is $500. If you can do it I'll be proven wrong and pleasantly surprised.
There's far more than 1 or 2 games per year per system. Critics and fans alike agree that those games are way better than average.
