Anyone who does real work and needs real, reliable, precise and abundant input/output... Are using a PC.
Yes, some workloads have bifuricated into the mobile world, but mobile devices are primarily devices of content consumption/photos/videos.
You are not writing a 3,000+ word report on something using a phone, you just aren't, it's stupid and inefficient.
Real work is done on a PC.
| killer7 said: People who had laptops now have tablets. Its more easy to use them, they rearly break. |
I literally have a tablet sitting next to my laptop as I use my tablet for safety/rescue audits. (Because it takes photos)
But I use my laptop for incident reporting because... Typing on a touch screen is about as useful as tits on a bull.
But guess what? PC isn't just desktop and laptops, It's also handhelds, tablets and yes... Consoles.
| killer7 said: Its more easy to use them, they rearly break. If i use a PC: The more powerful and complex it is, the easier it can break. |
All things mechanical, electrical and man made are prone to fail eventually, it's a matter of when, not if.
Often it's the displays that are the common failure point in tablets and phones... Followed by the Lithium battery which actually does degrade over time.

| killer7 said: If i use a PC: The more powerful and complex it is, the easier it can break. |
That's a blatant lie.
PC's have consolidated over the decades so that there are fewer moving components and points of failure.
A PC running a High-End Ryzen 9950X, 256GB of DDR5 Ram and a Geforce 4090 is as reliable as a Ryzen 5600X, 32GB DDR4 Ram and a Geforce 4060.
Quality of components is easily the biggest factor in reliability, not power.
| killer7 said: I don't need it when i have an 8K TV and a high end home cinema with an Ultra 4K BD Player, that does not only read (4K) BD, but also DVD and CD. |
Shame that 8k TV is a waste considering most 4k Blu-Ray content is actually mastered in 1080P and streaming doesn't have the bitrate to really take advantage of that output.
And despite Sony advertising the contrary, the Playstation 5 is not powerful enough to run AAA games at 8k.
But you know what can? A PC. Is there any point to 8k gaming? Not really.
But I guess it gives you a bragging right in a pretty irrelevant metric in the grand scheme of things.
I'll stick to my 4k 85" OLED and Dolby 5.2 high-end sound system... Because Panel Quality (OLED) definitely beats higher resolution lower quality panels. (LCD)
Xbox and PC have support for DVD and CD's as well. PS5 and Switch are the current consoles that lack CD support.
| killer7 said: And guess what? I can also download music and films, because i can connect an SSD to it. For streaming fans its important to use Amazon, Netflix... and surprise: I can also use that! So why do i need a PC? With ambilight hue i get an experience i would never want to exchange with anything else! Google "ambilight hue philips"! As you see, i also don't need a PC for entertainment!😎 Calling me "dellusional" or "a relic from the past" only shows informational lack of todays posibilities in technology! |
Anyone worth their salt is likely using a media server for this task.
With a PC you can actually do some post-processing/A.I upscaling to improve image quality so that... You know... You might actually be able to use some of those extra pixels on that 8k display? You should have probably thought of that before you tried to brag about having 8k... But then limit yourself to 1080P/4k content.
You really are showcasing your lack of information and understanding of PC's current technology and possibilities.

An 8K TV does a better job for movies and picture quality than a PC. A 20k home cinema will never be surpassed by a tiny speaker system with a PC. You need a good amplifier to get the maximum out of a sound system. You need an amplifier for a big subwoofer wich costs 1000$+ alone! For Loutspeakers that do Bi Amping, a high end emplifier is obligatory! A PC does not do that on its own. I workes for Dolby as well. If we only had PCs with their soundcards, well have fun with mickey mouse sound quality! Yes a smartphone is a tiny screen, but an 8k TV isn't. In fact its bigher than a PC monitor. So when you complain about small screens but you prefere PC montiors (wich cost just a piece of cake compared to good TVs) over TVs you are contradictong yourself. I love my movies and games physical. PC is pushing away from that. I can do everything i need without a PC. So why buy one? Thats my opinion and it will never ever change. Like i said, i am fine with my phone because i don't need a PC. And more and more people replace their desktop PCs with tablets and Smartphones. Because they do not need more than that. I see this in my job as well. |
1) PC can be connected to your 8k TV.
2) PC can be connected to your home cinema.
3) PC can be connected to your amplifier and speaker system.
But most of all...
You -could- take 4x 8K (7680 × 4320) displays and build a massive single 16k (15360 × 8640 display. And it's all plug and play.
And then you can A.I upscale all your content for that canvas.
I can do everything you can do... But with a PC. And factually better.

If he used a PC he could structure his posts appropriately. #Irony
| killer7 said: The logic to some fanboys here is: if n If Nintendo is loosing, they are competition, they are doomed! If Nintendo is winning, they are no competition! |
You need to stop accusing others of being a fanboy.
Debate the points presented, don't delve into such childish rhetoric.
Nintendo competes with Sony and Sony competes with Microsoft and Microsoft competes with PC and PC competes with Mobile and Mobile competes with Nintendo.
How? It's simple and logical.
We only have a fixed amount of available "eyes-on" time during our day. - Those companies all need to compete for our time/eyes, they do that by offering a compelling product that we are willing to buy and invest our time in... And they need to offer a better product than their competitors to get our time.
