Sadly PS5 tier specs is the best I can afford as of now. My only other option would be to sell my Series X and Series X physical game collection used since I will soon be able to play all Xbox games on PC gamepass, but I don't really want to do that, Series X is still useful for back compat and it has devalued enough 3 years into the gen that I feel like I'd be losing more than I gained. An extra maybe $350 added to my build would get me up to probably a Ryzen 7600 CPU, DDR5 RAM, a PCIe 4.0 SSD, and either a GeForce 4060 or RX 6700 GPU, but I'm just not sure it's worth sacrificing my entire Series X and it's games for what amounts to maybe an extra 40% performance on my PC build. PC suffers from pretty significant diminishing returns in terms of price/performance ratio the higher you go on price. The build above seems be the price/performance king at present.
Hopefully by the time console gen 10 starts Holiday 2026 with the next-gen Xbox I will be able to afford a much larger PC upgrade that exceeds that next-gen Xbox.
