Should I buy this or the PS5 Pro?
PS5 Pro
>>748282104you need a 5070ti MINIMUM dont fall for the amdjeet screeching in 2026
>>748282104PS5 Pro.
>>748282104>8GB DDR4this shit won't run any games made after 2020
>>748282143>$2200 GPU is the minimum trust me bro
>>748282104That has only one stick of ram. But PC is always the better investment than a dusting brick box.
>>748282104>Radeon RX 9050 4GB
>>748282104>Cool ass case>Most whimpy hardware you've ever seen inside of it.That case is probably like 20% of the value of the build.
>>748282104>4GB GPU
>>748282104Everything about that is ass. Go for it, 12 month financing with 2 year geek squad protection.
>>748282104Get both. Use the PS5 for new beefy releases (you won't need to fuck around with faggot settings to barely get the thing to play like you would on a PC) and get the PC to get (((free))) older games or to play certain games that are just way better to play on M/KB (tower defense games, RTS, simulator gay shit, etc,.)
>>748282104>Pre-built
Unfortunately it's not good time to buy PC parts. You might be able to salvage something decent with used parts which you can then upgrade as you need, or make some frankenstein build from salvaged gaming laptop motherboards. Don't buy a cuck console, unless you are really that desperate for modern no games.
>>748282104>prebuiltEnjoy your underpowered cheaply built pc with a single fan gpu that will fail in a few years
>>748282104Utterly terrible specs
>>748282104PC will always be better than console. If you don’t know how to upgrade or work on them yourself though, then you might be better off with the rest of the mouth breathing brownoid retard subhumans that play on console.
>>748282370You can still get cheap parts, you just have to look all over different places.In Sweden we have sites komponentkoll where you can sort individual parts according to price and ratings.https://komponentkoll.se/
gaming is dead find another hobby anon
>>748282104>Am4>8gb ddr4>850$
>>748282104This is much better than a ps5 pro, you don't need to pay for online subscriptions and you can use it for work, it's a no brainer really
>>748282104God no. That thing can't run anything over mid gen 360 era games.
>>748282104Isn't this thing kinda worse than a Steam Machine?
>>748282104Good machine if you want to play Terraria or Starcraft 2 or something
>>748282104You need at least an 8GB graphics card and 16GB of ram for 1080p dog
>>748282104>4GB GPU>2026anon I...
>>748282104the ps5 pro is even worse than that, it has 16+2gb of shared ram, which is divided as follows>4gb for the OS (some fanboy say it's 2, but it's not true)>8-10gb + a separate 2gb module dedicated as system ram, it needs this much or else it would run unstable>2-4gb dedicated as vram, it's no surprise this shit needs to upscale from ridiculously low resolutions in order to even run the games, it simply lacks the amount of vram neededWith your system there, you should either tie with the PS5 pro or, in most scenarios, have double its vram amount, and while your system in itself is bad compared to other PCs out there, it's still a better alternative than the PS5oh and let's not forget that the cpu in your OP (ryzen 5500) mogs the the crap out of the ancient PS5's cpu (it's a gimped down ryzen 3700 that behaves more like a ryzen 1700)
>>748282104kek. the absolute state of pc gaymin
>>748282104African e-waste PC.
>>748282263That machine has one of the worst GPUs released in a while.
>>748282104I didn't know the RX 9000s series had 4GB vram options
>>748282104>8gig ram>amd cardlol
>>748282104Xbox
>>748282332It also halves the memory bandwith
>>748282104That will not run any modern games with high graphic fidelity that came out after 2018, at a stretch.It's barely going to be a good web browsing machine with that RAM if I am honest.I don't like Playstations... but get the Playstation.
>>748282104see >>748282143If you're going to buy a PC, don't be cheap.Otherwise just get a console.This rig is already outdated.
>>748284903unironically this
>>748282143>redeem windows 11 saar
>>748282104Neither.Use a bit more money and get a slightly better computer. You might want to make sure you get an NVIDIA card as well, despite their being complete dirty whores, because for a layman they are so much more easy to handle.
Save up about $2500 and buy a PC with that.Anything less is a waste.Yes, it's not ideal, but this still isn't an expensive hobby compared to most
>>748282104That thing isn't even worth my RAM and can't run shit. Get PS5 Pro.
>>748285681>That thing isn't even worth my RAM and can't run shitthis>Get PS5 Pro.nah, get series X
>>748282104neither. unironically due to current economics the XBOX is the better choice.
you build a pc yourself
I got a PS5 Pro new a month ago for 825 Euros. Playing Control Resonant on it right now and excited for Grand Theft Auto 6 and Path of Exile 2 1.0 version. Maybe I'll get Phantom Blade 0. I still need to see more of it. Kingdom Hearts PS5 versions are coming out soon as well as Dragon's Dogma 2 Dark Arisen. The Witcher 3 Remastered I'll play probably after Control Resonant. Valor Mortis looks interesting.I would need to spend 2000 Euros at least to play all these game at PS5 Pro quality level.
>>748282104you can get a laptop replacement board on ebay thats better than this for less than that by hundreds
>>748286092>LaptopThey solder in the ram now to make you buy entirely new systems instead of just switching sticks.
>>748286084>I would need to spend 2000 Euros at least to play all these game at PS5 Pro quality level.turbo retard lmaoa 5700 9060xt pc is less than $1100
>>748286306Kill yourself. Take your own life right away.
>>748282143Calling amd jeet coded when dlss5 is jeelslop coded is the funniest irony of 4chan in 2026.
>>748286364didn't like your retardation being brought back to reality?
>>748282104No, you should probably pick out parts for yourself.The GPU VRAM is too little, just like the RAM.That thing is $900 and you can get something significantly better
>>748286306Not him.I just checked some sites with prebuilds and I was surprised by how cheap they are until I looked at the RAM. There was none. Cheapest build with 9060XT 8GB I could find had R5 5500, low end mATX B550, 16GB of unspecified DDR4, unspecified 512GB SSD, 650W PSU. 1100€. 5700 is 70€ extra.
>>748286209are you stupid? thats why you want them. the ram chips (non soldered) are more expensive than an entire system.
>>748286705it's called building it yourself
>>748282104That's terrible even for prebuilts in that price-range.
>>7482860845060ti 16GB debuted at $429. You fucked up.
>>748287008Friends don't tell their friends to get Gigabyte PSU.Also if you are going to build it yourself I would buy 5500X3D from chinks.5700 is garbage CPU even 5600 will be faster.Half of the L3 cache and only gen3 PCI-E compared to 5700X because 5700 is just 5700G without iGPU.
I'd buy a PS4 over this, hell even a series S
>>748287310good news, the 5600 is even cheaper
what should I buy for about 1.5-2k? last time I build a pc was a decade ago
>>748287008>P650SSmore like PISS, ASUS Prime mobos are garbage alsoheres a PSU tier listhttps://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1akCHL7Vhzk_EhrpIGkz8zTEvYfLDcaSpZRB6Xt6JWkc/edit?gid=1078495601#gid=1078495601
>>748287498I would go one step further and buy used 5600 and B550 board.I have one to sell btw, so I'm biased.
Buy used
>>748287560are you expecting quality when it's hardware that's supposed to be relative to the snoybox?
>>748282104>8GB RAM>4GB VRAMI'd rather shoot myself then spend that much on that PC. Jesus. PS5 Pro would run circles around that thing. It will run GTA VI at 4K and games like FFVII Revelation at 4K 60FPS
Are these decent for a beginner pc gamer? or are they poo poo?
>>748287597no but it's weird budget setup when there's a decent M2 SSD involved, just get a SATA SSD at that price point
>>748287654Top one is good. Gets you dlss5 at better performance than bottom.
>>748287682because that's what the snoybox hasand sata ssds are not getting any cheaperprimarily because there's no fucking reason to even make them
>>748287654they're both shit
How much would I have to spend if I just wanted play most games from before 2018 at 30fps 1080p on medium settings? I just need something to replace my ancient 10+ year old craptop.
>>748288595just get something with a ryzen 5000 cpu 16gb of ddr4 ram and an rtx 5050 8gb, should be more than enough for your use case
>>748287654Those are both massive impovements over that abomination you posted in OP, yes. Bare in mind they're still not good PCs by current standards, but they would have been usable PCs like 5 years ago.
>>748288824I'm not OP, just someone in a similar position as him.
>>748282104>8gb ramyou can't even browse the internet with that in current year
>>748282104>should i buy an object that can play games forever and do productive stuff with>or an object that only has limited support for its lifetime?
Maybe I should get a gaming laptop. Most graphics intensive games I wanna play are E33 and Armored Core VI.
>>748288960get a laptop with an rtx 5060 and you're golden, I got one last year, the only thing that I fear is that laptops are notorious for dying on you, even if you treat 'em like babies, especially gaming laptops
>>748282104I grabbed this one when it showed up. I still feel like I made a serious mistake.
>>748282143>using windows in current year
>>748282104Hmmm, all of gaming at your fingertips, for free, from every console and generation... or a PS5.Tough choice OP, you might want to just buy some NFTs with those shekels.
>>748289057Why? Sure it's not the best deal ever, but considering the market it makes a hell of a lot more snese than the e-waste PC in OP.
>>748288960E33 runs like shit though, it's very heavy.
>>748289202My initial intent was a Linux build. I bought that because of the relative deal. The 5080 apparently chugs on Linux compared to the 9070 XT.
>>748289057That's actually a good PC at a pretty decent price in todays market. A long as you had the budge for it, you didn't do bad at all, and should be set for several years.
>>748282104Those are some bleak fucking specs for $850. Are we back to the 2020 price spike shenanigans?
>>748289271You could just sell the 5080, buy a new 9070XT and still have money to spare.
>>748286869You absolute bumbling bafoon! Do you think the ram is cheaper because it's locked in? The ram price will be naked into the laptop price you redundant rambunctious retard.
Switch 2 and base PS5
>>748282104>8GB DDR4
>>748289785>shitch 2lol
>>748289808yes, the only platform with games
>>748289750I just told you it isn't you stupid shitlord. get a replacement board not a full working laptop. or don't. someone else deserves it more than you nigger.
>>748289865False, that would PC, no other platform has games
>>748290028>get a replacement boardThe ram is soldered to the board you fucking troglodyte. How will that be cheaper?
Buy a pc with 5060, with a 1080p screen it will last you for a long time
>>748290036What games are there on PC these days that necessitate owning something better than a $300 GPU?
>>748286869>the ram chips (non soldered) are more expensiveNta but the price between the two are roughly the same. To cost of ram is due to the chip shortage, and that applies to both soldered and non-soldered.
>>748289707Yeah, but I'm looking at general side costs.It was like $2450 after tax. I'll need to drop at least $170 for a new PSU, and the motherboard might need to be scrapped if it's ASRock or ASUS, and then I need an actual HDD. So I still need to put in like $750.
>>748289865>Games such as Bananza and... uuh...lol I'll pass
>>748282143Agreeing with this. That's what I have and everything runs on it.>>748282242I got my whole computer for 2k.
>>748290382By the way, if the PC comes and the PSU isn't shit, I will publicly praise CyberPowerPC for not fucking their customers. If it's an Apevia or something similar, I will drag them.
>>748290317objectively wrong. thanks for playing retard.>>748290159you cant remove it. its flashed to the timings on the board you absolute subhuman,
PC
>>748282104It's absolutely dogshitJust pay 2x the price of a PS5 pro and get your back money via piracy
>>748287654OP get the AMD one it's the much better price per dollar option.Unless you want DLSS5, then go with Nvidia.but really just go with the AMD GPU option, it's good.Right now both hardware and modern games are a bit shit desu. so don't worry too much about not getting a good deal as you would have like 8 years ago. Get the full AMD build and enjoy modern gaming (at medium to low settings, or high settings at 30 FPS) without the RTX/DLSS5 scam and you'd get really good performance for the older titles as well. or get the Nvidia option if you really want those features that Nvidia heavily shills (Which honestly IMO they're just scams and aren't really worth it) such as better raytracing performance and that jeet'd DLSS5 tech.
>>748286376>t. amd jeet
>>7482821044GB VRAM and 16GB RAM was standard over a decade ago
>>748289057Specs are very good.Parts are probably the cheapest around but thats what you get with prebuilts
>>748282104How did pricing became this bad, it should be half that.
>>748290780Yeah at DDR3 and GDDR5.
>>748290536And just in case anyone here is really new or new to PC at least, the PSU is the most important part of a PC. More important than the CPU, more important than the GPU. Literally the beating heart. A poorly engineered PSU with a bad coverage guarantee can blow and take out the entire system. Reference SPL's PSU Tier List and always go A or A+.
>>748282143>dont fall for the amdjeet screeching in 2026screeches the nvidia jeet
>>748286376coded is a word from twitterdon't fucking talk about 4chan as if you have any stake here
>>748282104If you can't afford both, you clearly must go for the PC route. Steam sales and piracy will save you a lot of money>>748282143>unironically shilling for brands without being paid for itYou are bellow a jeet.
>>748282104>Should I buy this or the PS5 Pro?Always buy a PC. Always. Even a second hand PC from 15 years ago can play more videogames than the last 3 console generations put together.>inb4 you're exaggeratingSadly i am not. A PC from 15 years ago gets all the PC games from the 80s to 2010 and also gets all the console games emulated from the 80s to the 2000s.>mind explodesBuying a console is never the right choice. The only way a console is worth it if someone gifted it to you and that someone was not a family memeber.
>>748287654Buy Nvidia. DLSS is better than native, let alone FSR shit.
A 9800x3d with a 5070ti or 9070xt are on par or better than a PS5 pro?
>>748292251New video card > console, periodIf you're in the position to buy a new video card, that's what you buy every time. Unless you really want to play GTA VI or OoT remake, there's no reason to own any consoles
>>748292390>>748292294
>>748282104You can get a used 4060ti+32gb+5800X for less.
>>748292294yes? 75 to 85% better gpu wise, 100% better cpu wise
>>748282104It's a piece of shit. Buy something better or get a PS5 pro.
>>748292474Sorry, new to PC.Do you think this can carry me next gen with at least 1440@60?
>>748292560the only one that can answer that is youyou choose the settings you play at and what you want to play atneither the gpu nor the cpu are soldered in, you can just take them out, upgrade and sell the old stuff
>>748290238>1080pIt's 2026. 1440p is the minimum now.
>>748292807It's 2026, 720p is the new normal.
>>748291112It would be like $500 if you built it yourself. The margins for prebuilts are insane...
>>748292294A 9800X3D with a 5070Ti or a 9070XT is the best combo you can reasonably get unless you strike gold.The 9850X3D is just a top-binned and factory-OC'd 9800X3D. If you care about ray-tracing, path-tracing, or AI shenanigans go with NVidia. If you care about none of those and only care about raw linear power, then the 9070XT is the best card on the market right now. The RTX 5080 exists as the thing the 9070 XT was an answer to.
>>748282143>you need a 2027 model car minimum>anything else is a waste of timekill yourself
>>748292968The 5070ti was 2 monthly minimum wages above the 9070xt taichi here.5080, don't even think about it.Good to know it is good.
>>748293092>taichiDO NOT GET THAT ONEit has the shitty power connector that melts cards
>>748293053are you going drag racing?
>>748293210On extreme cases.Being a 9070xt, it's fine if you don't OC the shit out of it on top of the original OC.As that anon didn't even knew if it was good, I don't think he needs to worry about since I guess he won't do shit.
>>748282104>it's realholy fuck, what a shit deal.
>>748293434it's not safe anywhere, you should not voluntarily use that cableit's still significantly more prone to fuck ups than the 8 pin
>>748282290What games do you need more than 4GB of VRAM in?
>>748289057In this market that's a good dealI paid like $1700 for my 5080 PC, but I only have 16gb ram and I reused older parts like the case, SSD, fans and PSU.
>>748293546>significantly more prone to fuck ups than the 8 pinOh I agree. What I am saying is that the chance goes from 10-15% to 0.1-0.2% (numbers from my ass, I know, the point is that is MUCH less propense to )if you aren't using 500-750w of juice just in that cable.
