You said you have 1500 usd budget.

Even if the cpu you can buy now will survive next gen , are you ready to pay 500 usd more to upgrade the gpu for next gen ?

$500 for next gen sound like a solid deal to me. That’d be less expensive than a PS6, I’d imagine. Maybe I should clarify that it’s only $1,500 for the initial purchase…

And the reason I’m looking to upgrade to PC is mostly for older games. I feel very restricted in the PS/NSW ecosystem when it comes to playing any game I’d want: For instance, where’s Sonic Unleashed 4k 60FPS on my Switch 2 or PS5? I’m gonna open my unused Xbox for that one game. Similarly, where can I play the highest quality, up-res’d, 60-120FPS version of Mario 64? And that’s not even mentioning all the fan games and mods I’d have access to.

All in all: I’m better off just letting go of my >$1,000 worth of PS5/XBSX hardware alongside their online annual subscription and jumping over to PC ASAP.

I understand you , i have an imba collection of pc games of around 20 terabytes plus emulators. :P

I don't know what cpu playstation 6 will have m8.

If we speculate it will have a 8-core, you can gamble and buy one of the best 8-cores cpu on the market  + a medium gpu around 300 usd (2060 super performance is enough for 1440p).

For monitor if you have a big desk and can place it 50 cm distance away go for 32 inch is the perfect size for gaming. (If you have zero distance from the monitor then 27 inch).

Do whatever you like , but it is still a gamble because playstation 6 could have 12-cores cpu or something.
