If you only refer to the graphics and the teraflops achieved, what would be better:

A PS5 or a good gaming PC with about the same price of around 500 euro?

I would say that depends on what you prefer to gamble and do better

The gaming PC is not only more versatile in terms of games, it can be upgraded and you can use it for many things. Programming, rendering, doing homework, everything is possible with the computer.

Mathematically speaking, the PS5 at 4K therefore offers an advantage over the gaming PC:

4K graphics cards are expensive for the PC and very few players have one. The PS5 could offer 4K performance at a more affordable price, provided a corresponding TV is available.

As you can see, I chose the gaming PC.

A PC can do everything a console can do and more.

You can also upgrade it whenever you want.

But the PS5 will certainly get exclusives in the future that will not exist on the PC. If these speak to you, I would consider getting one. Horizon Zero Dawn 2 would be interesting, but don't buy PS5 mMn for the release, because there will hardly be any games that can't be played on the Ps4. Waiting for bargains.

Of course you can upgrade the PC. That would definitely be better when it comes to overall performance. However, if the PC should cost about as much as the PS5, you will certainly not get the graphics quality that you would want. The PS5 offers more advantages. He said yes at a price of 500 euro. I don't know of a gaming PC that you can get for this price. Of course there are cheap graphics cards if you can get them used. These would definitely be better at the price.

But with a new purchase you will never get a good PC for the price that exceeds the graphics of the PS5.

But it's about pure gaming for the same price of 500 euro…

Would always use PC for the following reasons. If you upgrade it, which you can do at any time, you are not dependent on buying a new console every few years. Constantly upgrading won't cost much less than buying a new console every few years, but you only have one device that reliably makes old and new games almost platform-independent. Depending on what you invest, with a much better graphics than a console. The games themselves are often cheaper too. A controller can also be connected to the PC. The disadvantage is that you have to play a little with settings and set up the device halfway. You should also be able to install parts for upgrading yourself. In addition, a gaming pc can do everything. Program image editing, video editing, video creation, rendering engines such as unity or blender, etc. With a 500 euro device you can't really tear everything but gradually upgrade and is good. However, it is really important to use the newest possible generations of hardware in order to be able to upgrade for years without having to use used or outdated hardware. In this regard, but not exclusively for this reason, would rather rely on AMD processors

The PS5 even supports 8K (I know that's nonsense and nobody needs it, but I just wanted to mention it once)

Sp

Hehe. In any case, if you only refer to the graphics, the PS5 is ahead.
However, a good processor is also needed these days. Depending on what games you want to play yourself, a PC would be better. What would be your requirements for PC or PS5? What games would you like to play? I would then choose accordingly.

Al

Actually I do not care. I can play on both devices with a controller, keyboard and mouse. The user interface on the ps5 is tailored for gaming, but starting a game on a PC would not be difficult now 😂

Well I like to play GTA which is also ported to the PS5 in an improved way. I also think that GTA 6 only comes on the consoles (as with GTA 5). Sony has a partnership with Rockstar. I also play Fortnite, mw and Minecraft. I'm also interested in the PS5 exclusives like Spiderman and Zero Dawn…

Sp

Then the PS5 is clearly better for you. Although you could just play all games on the PC. Of course, most games only come on the console, but waiting, I think at least, would be worth it if you are a passionate PC gamer.

On the PC I play games like CSGO, Minecraft, GTA5, Ghost Recon - Breakpoint, and various other steam games. But preferably those where you can build something in multiplayer without being an OP and having everything.

Space Engineers and Satisfactory come to mind spontaneously.

That's why the PC is my absolute favorite for me personally.

If you would like to know more about my PC's data, you can contact me about this.

Yes. Build your own PC. For 500 euro. And if you have a little more money later, you can even upgrade.

For example, you are now building a computer with an APU from AMD and will not pack a real graphics card later.

these APUs are really good now.

and believe me, you will use the PC for other things. And then be thankful that you have it.

but even if not, my favorite games (TF2, Cities Skylines etc) are not available for PS, for example. And that applies to many games.

You can also upgrade the calculator. Buy something now for 500, if you later have another 200, you can upgrade to a computer for 700 euro. With a Ps the net is fine

Ab

He thinks I only upgrade 500 once without upgrading which is better

mi

Nobody can say what will be in two years. Then he might have a lot of money. Maybe not. Maybe in 1 year.

Ab

But it now counts that now it is YES He YES IN A FEW YEARS OF MILLIONAIRE AND GETS ITSELF

And exactly the latter is the problem: very few will already have a television in the living room that supports 4K and 120 fps for gaming. New TV plus PS5? => Seen in this way, you can get a PC straight away and save on the costs of games and the Internet…
