These specs are the equivalent of letting your child pick what they want to eat and they choose chicken nuggets for the 4th time that week. 

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 probablg a Ryzen 7500f 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 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.

You’re probably better off just buying the Xbox Series X2 console in 2026.
