Of my PC or PC in general?  And I find price hard to calculate, tbh.  No doubt my hardware was expensive, but it will outclass (with ease) the ps6 and next box, so I am getting two full generations out of it.  Plus, I don't pay for online.  I can emulate classic games and not have to pay subscription fees, plus games tend to be way cheaper.  I think the cost of entry for PC is high, but PC is cheaper over the long haul.  Just depends on how you want to spend your money.  

In general i mean, the price  of  helic  compared to a pc with same specs.

Good question.  IMO, a decent PC is 2k.  I mean one could be built for cheaper but would lack any sort of future proofing.  Price of the Helix?  I am very curious to know.  Ram, GPUs and HDDs are super expensive.  Random guess, minimum of $1200.  I could see it being $1500. 

Edit

I personally wouldn't build a rig with anything less than a 9700xt or 5070ti.  Anything less than 16 gb doesn't seem worth the effort.  I dont think 12 gb will age well.
