You are almost making sense. But quantum computing is exponentially faster than current cpu tech. And faster computing is always a plus for gaming.

The tech simply isn’t ready in its current state to be used on a consumer level.

*at certain task to which it is well suited.

Its not just exponentially faster at everything (from what I understand) (supposedly theres task it does alot slower than current x86 cpu's).

Anyways quantum computers, require them to run really cold.... and you need to calibrate it, everytime its shut down or moved.
Imagine everytime you wanted to turn on your console, it would take a few hours to cooldown first,
and lock some of these particles into place, with the right spin ect, before you could boot it up.


Its not practical to make a consumer grade, mass produced quantum computer, for a gameing console.
it would be alot more expensive, bigger, louder, require much more calibration (at each home), and slower for gameing related stuff (most likely).
Its a bad idea, atleast currently, maybe these things change in the future.

You seem to have a hard time with reading comprehension.

Let me quote myself:

The tech simply isn’t ready in its current state to be used on a consumer level.

Quantum computing is in its infancy. It is currently not practical to produce any consumer grade quantum computer at all, let alone quantum computers at all. The tech is still the object of scientific research!! *facepalm* There’s hardly any use for it because it is still studied and refinement of it hasn’t yet been enough to make it to any consumer product. When it finally happen, it will be a paradigm shift for   computers. Whatever you think you know about it is based on what primitive understanding of it scientists currently have a it. But they all agree that it will eventually change the way computers operate.
