How's that "You can build a better PC for the same cost as consoles" argument going, faggots?
pc will always be better than consoles, regardless of the price
>>728940296PC mass turd race on suicide watch
>That thing that held true for a decade and a half is no longer applicable, I told you people that you were stupid
>>728940296consoles are also going to have price increases
Gatekeeping is a good thing, if you don't already own a gaming PC after being told for so long, you can only blame yourself.
>>728940296you never couldPC retards just kept pretending>b-b-but consoles are just locked down PCsthen why can't you run their shit natively you fucking imbeciles?why do you need super beefy machine several times stronger than console HW and still end up with garbage emulationbunch of fucking idiots
>>728940296Daily rent-free thread #99999. https://archive.is/KXcUfAnother console-peasant murder thread.
Console prices will also increase as they too rely on RAM and GPUs
Any game worth playing can run off a cheap retropie build.
>>728940428Console is just a locked down slower version of PCIf you play one game on console and then the same one on PC, the pc game feels like it’s 3x faster
>>728940296The RAM prices are not permanent, you imbecile PC is still better than consoles
Why havent AI companies figured out how to harness the power of consoles to do work for them? Didn't the US military hook up thousands of PS3s for something way back when
>>728941167i have a cousin that was a lifelong consolefag that switched to pc recently and he immediately got the 2nd highest rank in warzone
>>728941286>Why havent AI companies figured out how to harness the power of consoles to do work for them? AI companies don't work or come up with ideas. You'll never guess why.
>>728941031Theoretically Microsoft or Sony could eat the cost like they do already, of course they'd try and claw that money back in other ways, so I assume it's a wash.
>>728941196Altman bought out 40% of all unprocessed RAM wafers globally until 2029. It's not permanent but it's not getting better anytime soon.
>>728941196i wish i were that delusional. i'd be so much happier.
>>728940296I already built my PC cause I’m not a fake gamer who meanders around crying about it never getting in.
>>728940296why would i need new hardware? to play the newest faggot negro space adventure? no thx.>boots up duke 3d
>>728941660BasedFuck negroes
>>728941616yeah it's not a coincidence. we're going back to mainframes but with ads and penis surveillance
Strictly speaking a PC that is weaker than a current gen system is still better than said system because of software availability.>But you can jailbreak aYeah but with a computer you literally never have to consider the manufacturer intentionally bricking your shit if they determine it to be modified, a problem since the fucking wii.
>>728940296This was always bunk, and it's one of the driving reasons so many people here are convinced the industry has an 'optimization' problem, you have a lot of people with really lopsided, poorly built budget boxes gaslit by redditors to think it should be doing triple performance of a Playstation.
>>728940916So I can play the game the intended way it was released, and I could if needed, modify settings I don’t like in the game such as motion blur and what kind of graphical rendering process is used. And I can multi task with intensive programs like photoshop or adobe video within half a second. I understand consoles place in market but the only thing they have over a PC is the price point, and if you just saved a little more money you could have a beast of a system. The real reason consoles were working well in market was exclusive game releases but these days most studio acknowledge exclusive games are a total waste and can potentially kill your game/franchiseSee FF
>>728941840>it's one of the driving reasons so many people here are convinced the industry has an 'optimization' problemOh yeah it's totally imaginary that games run so fucking shit these days it's less intensive than actually running the render pipeline to use llms to bullshit frames in the current iteration of frameskip.
>gpu and ram will cost you 1500 off the batgood job master race
>>728940296just you waitconsoles will get a price increase too
>>728941786>ejaculate into semen receptacle to end porn ad
>>728941997>Oh yeah it's totally imaginary that games run so fucking shit these daysIf you have good hardware, yeah it is.
My $2k PC will still be better than whatever the PS6 will be
>>728940296>have office programs for work and shit>sit at a desk>can answer your emails and pay bills using keyboard and mouse>no subscription>has the most games including adult games like turn based and real time strategy.PCs are better than consoles once you become a man.
>>728942229Even on "Good" hardware games run like shit
>>728942278only faggot manchildren read books that are titled "Becoming a man"
>>728940296>consoles are magically shielded from price increases of the same components it shares with pc
>>728940296Can your console let you do spreadsheets while you play?I don't think so
>>728940296Wouldn't know, because I never said. How's that locked down DRM box going, faggot?
>>728940296>Thinks consoles dont increase in price as well
>>728942352Yeah, probably. Books are for fags.
>>728942525no, just the one you posted
>>728942473Yeah the PS5 PRO releasing at $700 TWO years ago is appalling. It’s basically to set the consumer up to think PS6 will be an acceptable price cause >wow its only $150 more than the ps5!
>>728940916at least we can play your gamesyou can play ours at all
>>728940296Simple, if PC is no longer viable than the entirety of gaming is dead and it needs to not just be dead but be like a molten crater. It's babylonian now.
>>728940296Here you go
>>728940296Sorry can't hear you over my 8k 240fps with bonus ray tracing. I'm a bit busy pirating games so I can mod them into completely new games with total overhauls. can you come back some other time.
>>728941301The guy who gets first is usually a cheater. If you watch his killcams. It’s either that or a lucky non cheater that wins with the storm. But 90% of the time warzone is ruined by cheaters
>>728943443Based
>>728944218I mean that's sort of online multiplayer in general these days.
>>728944218he said there were noticeably less cheaters these days but i don't know, i don't play it
>>728941470>ai grifting that loses billions every single year will survive until 2029
Do retards understand consoles have RAM and GPU too?
>>728944657If they did, we wouldn't have threads like these.You gotta keep in mind the average person that uses AI (which includes both the administration and shills on this site) is actually clinically retarded.
>>728944657Dumbass you can't go out and buy console rams and gpus so it don't matter it's ai companies clearing stock of pc parts from stores that jacking prices so it don't effect consoles at all.
>>728941301There's not really any difference with many console multiplats. Not sure what that anon is talking about. Most PC games are just consolized now because many consolefags mass adopted PCs.PC exclusive games prior to consolization is a different story.
>>728945282>120fps max vs 275 fps and more
>>728944526You’re brown.
>>728944657>under contract to build X amountits gonna be awhile before it catches up but in the meantime its PC loss
>>728945184> you can't go out and buy console rams and gpusNo, but you can buy out all console ram order capacity in FABs
>>728945282I get 300 fps on bf1 and it’s locked to 60 on consoles If you’re playing a game that’s 120 on consoles that means it’s been optimized in the last three years, which means none of the good ones so PC runs games at least three or four times faster than a consoleThanks for proving my point
nobody could have predicted that this demented yakubian devil would serve as such a severe vector into fucking every consumer on the planet over
>>728940296the pc i built 15 years ago is still more powerful than the latest consoles.
>>728945661They can and will renegotiate order prices
>>728945779>yakubianhe's literally a faggot kike
>>728940548the switch poo is already $450 fucking dollars
>>728946064>switch out of nowhereNice try, snoy.
>>728945562and you're a retarded faggot
>>728945403>>728945702I wasn't talking about framerates. What are you on about?
>>728946162This is a thread about console and pc pricing you dunderfuck
>>728940548But they'll never rise as much as PC
>>728945779Yes you could.
consoles will catch up with the hikes whether you want it or not, nintendo especially, they really want to turn a profit on their toysexpect hikes on games, subs or maybe even up front hardwarefor them to take the loss would imply they trust you to buy more games to compensate and they're obviously not doing that
>>728946258Yeah, and? Switch 2 is a reasonable price for a mid-end handheld.NOT a console.
>>728946542You getting mad about it being mentioned here is only proof you don't believe in this made up distinction you have
>>728944594You can't lose money that's not real. Marketing is the most financially profitable sector and A.I. provides unparalleled accuracy and amounts of information. Everything is essentially worthless in comparison. Other than sports and sports betting, anyways.
>>728947730>You can't lose money that's not realWell shit then I guess it's a huge problem all this shit is being subsidized by government programs.
>>728941840this. those budget builds were always ass. if you dont have cash to splurge on a high end pc you shouldnt be building a pc.
>>728947730all the ai investment hinges entirely on them finding a way to make trillions back on the goyimonce even those illiterate boomers realise that they've been taken for a ride to develop a glorified chatbot it'll all collapse within a minute
>>728947730>A.I. provides unparalleled accuracy
>>728941196>companies will totally lower the price of something that sells out no matter whatlollmao
>>728940296>not being an idort
>>728940296Still going strong because there's ram in consoles too lmao
>>72894116799% of PC out there are office PCs that can barely run a 16 bit emulator
>>728948067profit is a calculation of balancing revenue per unit and salesyou're not going to sell as much if all that goes up is the price
>>728941196Imagine being a PC cuck
>games are getting less and less optimized meaning you need the most extreme top of the line PC to play anything nowadays>can’t even upgrade anymore without spending $8000 That’s it, I’m a Nintenchad now.
>I didn't build a PC back when people told me to and now I can'tTough titties.
>>728940296Why would I own a console (a subpar PC) instead of just getting a PC?
>>728948364>Games are getting worse and worse because of chasing meaningless technical "milestones">This is why I absolutely need to buy a piece of crap console to play them, and exclusively them
>>728948238by buying a console you bought a PC and then sold your freedom for a <$200 discount to circumcise it down to a console
>>728940296LGA 1700 BoardDDR4 2.5 inch SSDB580 GrfxStill as strong as ever thanks for asking kid.
