Forums - PC - Got an old gaming PC thats 4-5 years old? can it still match up to the Nextgen consoles? show your pics! :-D

Yeah, the PS4's GPU is a generation (and a half) ahead of the HD 6XXX series and has far more VRAM. Games like Watchdogs and Shadows of Mordor require a lot more because they were built with current gen console specs in mind; and not slap on ports of PS3/Xbox 360 titles. Your PC won't perform anywhere near as good as PS4 in more current (not cross-gen) and future games.

Now i know you must have an agenda here if you think them pics you posted look "Alot better" then the ones i posted?? and im pretty sure that if TR:DE released on PC it would be much better optimized then the original was too just like metro plus last light redux play a lot better on my pc then the originals did.

Come on now CGI i expected better from you...

Except they do.  If there is ever a time litterally everyone but you seems crazy...New Flash: You are the crazy one.

Except they dont? the only people so far who have been telling me im crazy seem to be PS4 fans i wonder why :-/ ...

The only person who agrees with you on your PC so far is yourself, I wonder why?

LOL I have seen multiple PC owners with differen't cards say that the PS4 looks better.  One guy even has a 570 which destroys your card.  As for PS4 fans...Look at my sig.  Most of my gaming is on my PC.  I also mine crypto currencies so I have a ton of different graphics cards at a variety of performance levels.  I can say without a doubt that a PS4 not only is clearly as strong as a 7870 on paper, but that it also performs that way in person.

I am not saying your 6870 is as weak as a PS3, but it is probably just around an Xbox One, except with less ram to work with for textures.  That is the truth.  Just accept it.

Care to post your own videos of Farcry 3 running maxed in 1080p with that AA?

The other games you pictured are nothing special. DMC and Sleeping Dogs run maxed in 1080p quite well on a Core 2 Quad Q9300 2.5GHz with a HD5770 1GB. The fact that they use no, or next to no DX11 features help quite a lot. In fact, on my old rig, DMC ran maxed in 1080p @ 60fps with next to no drops. That doesn't tell much. Come back with your own vids, if you want to prove a point. And please, make them using games that use similar features that the newer games use. 

So you want me to take time out of my life just to record videos of Farcry 3 running on my PC then upload it somewhere?? clearly the video would look like shit and even if i showed the settings before hand i bet ye would still try saying i edited them or something -_- ..

And im not here to prove any point does anywhere in my op say that im out to prove that my old PC can play games looking better then the PS4?? no other people are coming in here trying to make the PS4 look real good when really the is nothing on the PS4 atm that blows away anything that my PC can do and if you think the is please post the pics and videos to prove it as for me i've noting to prove.. Like i said maybe in a year or 2 the will be multiplats on the PS4 that run alot better but for now the is nothing..


Yes, I want you to do that. You can't back your shit up, so it's only fair that you'd do it. If you have enough time to spend hours on these forums, you've got enough time to make a short video of the game running on your gimped PC.

My older PC can also render amazing scenes for picture purpose. Doesn't make it possible for it to run the most recent multi-plat maxed at a decent frame rate. 

But you know... You can keep on giving all the excuses you can imagine to evade everything everyone throws at you. It makes for an hilarious comedy. =)



No one is arguing that consoles look better than pc, everyone knows pc will always have better graphics.But as someone who has a pc with an i7 and the exact card you have with a slight overclock and twice as much and faster ram than you, ps4 has better graphics, stop kidding yourself.

Edit: I agree it's not a night and day difference between my pc and my ps4, i dont feel like the game looks bad in comparison on my pc they are close enough, but the ps4 does it better and smoother

Really i see a lot of people who are agreeing with me.

But like i said i dont even know what PS4 fans are trying to prove here? does it really kill them inside that much that they have nothing on their system that looks a lot better then a 4 year old system?? does it hurt them soo much that Sony didnt make a super box like they did lastgen??. I think deep inside they know lastgen was different then this gen the X360 and PS3 where beasts that no 4 year old gaming pc could touch now we have this gen with low to mid end hardware where people can build €500 PC's that can completly wipe the floor with them same couldnt be said about lastgen as if you wanted to match the PS3 or X360 you where spending big bucks early in the console life.

Only took less then a year for the 360 to get a game like Gears of War big difference from its launch games CoD2 and Perfect dark. So far i see nothing like that happening this gen as the is nothing so far that brings the big jump that Gears did. The was nothing on peoples PC's that could match the graphics in that game and no 4 year old gaming pc would be able to touch it...

So thats what i think is going on here and why the is so many PS4 fans disagreeing with me (Even if they cover them selfs as PC fans too deep inside they know they are Sony fans) Cos they know they didnt see the jump they wanted so far and they just dont like that fact that they where gaming on high end systems at the start of last gen and this gen they are lucky to be gaming on mid range systems....


You're basically saying that anyone who says your pics while semi nice looking don't mean shit without a framerate to go by are all just PS4 fanboys? I have an old sempron being used as a door stop that I could probably get GTA4 to launch on, set everything to max, wait around a few mins and see if it could still write to the harddrive enough to take a screen shot. Does it make me a ps4 fan to point this out to you?



Why not check me out on youtube and help me on the way to 2k subs over at www.youtube.com/stormcloudlive

Personally I think that this:

Looks way better than anything that was posted in this thread so far.

And I'm not even joking.

Well it would of been more like 3 years ago when i got it, i didnt need to buy the hdds, PSU, monitor etc, but the whole upgrade only costed me 350to400 euros on a clearnce sale on pixmania.ie. its original price was like 500-550

wait so you got the majority of parts for your PC 3-4 months after they came out... on clearance, that's unbelievably lucky.

1. No one agrees your PC runs better than a PS4 because the specs and games don't support it.

2. Are you blind? It's what you said about your PC being false.

3. It seems like it's killing you inside that it does. You have an agenda and it shows so stop being delusional.

4. That's a complete lie, if you can honestly look at InFamous, Tomb Raider, Killzone, Uncharted 4, The order 1886, Driveclub and believe that you are a complete lost cause.

5. That's because the hardware was hard to program for at the beginning so it's obvious they got a good graphical jump a bit later. It's also harder to wow people with graphics than it was back then like even Crytek says so of course your not gonna see anything this gen like from what you experienced before. If you can look at other exclusive games I posted and not see a big leap not even an eye surgeon can fix your broken eyes. 

6. It's not just PS4 fans disagreeing with you it's pretty much everyone but you. I also probably put more time into just WOW than you have on all the games you have on PC. If you can beat 18k hours we'll talk about covering ourselves. I also saw exactly the jump I wanted to, maybe it's you not liking the jump on PC and trying to slug off consoles for it?

Your whole argument is flawed and uses logic made by a delusional fan to make it seem like all console fans are in the wrong and not you. You're one of the worst posters I've ever seen. 



Okay this got way off track. OP's been banned, this thread's done.
