| Soundwave said: Nvidia 60 series is probably going to be north of $2000 just for the GPU alone, so it's not like PC is going to be some value haven and MS Helix is likely to cost over $1000 at this rate too. |
Like with most consoles the equivalent hardware would be upper-mid range hardware, not the top of the line GPU. It doesn't seem likely that an RTX 6060ti or RTX 7060ti will cost >$2000. You can get an RTX 5060ti for about $380 currently.
There is also the advantage in that CPUs are pretty cheap currently compared to historical trends, due to competition in that space. So once ram prices stabilize a person can buy a decent PS5 (graphics-)level APU that will probably be PS6 level in terms of CPU performance, and then upgrade to a discrete GPU once PS6 releases.
PC gaming is already booming, and I can see the trend continuing.
