  • That build is at $530 with discounts. Add $70 for a DualSense 2 and it's $600.

    A Digital PS5 retail is $500, so the PC here is 20% more expensive. If you get the PS5 on a discount (the compared PC is discounted), the difference could go up to about 40%.

    On top of that, I guarantee you that its real world performance is not on par to that of a PS5. My own PC has better RAM, better CPU, better GPU and better SSD and it's still not quite there.

    Again, to get comparative real world performance you'll need to spend at least as much as the console on the GPU alone.

  • Good to know seamless switch is supposed to work. Most games just pick one at startup and you need to close and reopen to change. That’s also the case for BG3 but hopefully you’re right and it should be fixed.

  • You also get console or better performance with similarly priced hardware

    That’s not my experience. I get much better performance at higher resolutions on my PS5 than I do on my 2.5x more expensive PC.

    To get a little closer in performance, the GPU alone would have to be more expensive than the whole console.

  • It’s not. Just drop the storage device in a manhole, or get mugged, or break it in some way. Also when you do so, pretty much all packets are lost and to retransmit you need to go back to the point of origin and make a new copy, assuming you still have the original.

  • I have an older Apple TV (I think I bought it in 2017-2018), and the only thing it’s missing is 4K support. It’s not slow at all and it gets updates just fine. Only real “bad” thing is that the controller is the older model which is a bit clunky to use but you can get a new one separately if you want.
