OLED will probably have better pixel response and input lag anyway. And OLED > VA by far. Funny thing is I can imagine the 43" ASUS costing more than a far superior TV/monitor - HDR 1000 so must be using FALD.

Guys you can just look at revenue, with switch selling a lot it's not close. This is from newzoo, no idea if they are accurate.

Afaik, Steam doesn't disclose their sales numbers and it's quite hard to track digital sales from all of the store fronts that pc has so I'd take all "estimates" with a grain of salt. With that being said, I wouldn't doubt if combining all consoles game sales is bigger than pc game sales.

Mobile games revenue is nuts though.



                  

PC Specs: CPU: 7800X3D || GPU: Strix 4090 || RAM: 32GB DDR5 6000 || Main SSD: WD 2TB SN850

So consoles are basically dead.

A couple months ago there was an article about the history of videogames by its revenue, and the numbers were a bit different:

Since the article is from November 23, the 2020 data is incomplete or just a guess, but yeah, mobile is a monster.

Valve's Source 2 Engine is possibly getting RTX/Raytracing support

Man people spend an absorbent amount on F2P micro-transactions. This is why we can't have nice things (in gaming) :P

So Steam is basically almost as big as all consoles combined. Now if you add all the other clients to it it seems PC gaming is indeed bigger than console gaming.

Also add in non clients like League and Roblox/Minecraft and you're looking at an insane amount of players on PC.

I really think console folk do not quite fathom just how large PC's userbase is. They seem to just look at Steam charts (which not everyone using Steam opts into) and make their bold claims, completely ignoring all the other clients and standalone games that have rather vast followings. 



Step right up come on in, feel the buzz in your veins, I'm like an chemical electrical right into your brain and I'm the one who killed the Radio, soon you'll all see

So the 3080Ti might actually be a thing. Leaked from Palit.
