Which hardware is stronger?

Is 2 times the ps5 (twice the Ps5 power) stronger or ONE PC with components stronger?

RTX 3060 ti

Intel Core i9 10900k 10th gen

16 GB RAM

You can't compare that directly now. You can't pair 2 PS5's well. However, if you doubled the stats eventually. However, not when it comes to graphics performance with a 3060ti.

But I can tell you that you would have a lot more fun with a suitable PC configuration. However, under no circumstances take an i9 with a 3060ti. I also have a 3060ti and this processor would be too expensive compared to the graphics card or too powerful. You'd have bottleneck. Rather take a 3070 together with a Ryzen 7 2700x or a 3rd generation Ryzen 7. In addition, you should definitely use a power supply with at least 650 watts, as the new RTX consume a lot of power.

Why not an r5 5600x right away?

There's no such thing as a processor that is too powerful. And then recommend him to downgrade to a CPU that is much more likely to bottleneck the GPU, not at all.

The CPU can be as strong as you have the money for it. There's no limit. You don't lose any performance quite the opposite. It is only important that the CPU is not too weak. Not the other way around. Not for gaming.

the 10900k is of course not the best choice, but not because of too much performance but because of price.

That is only partially comparable. The PS5 is able to play 8K games smoothly, an RTX 3060 Ti does it poorly - or not at all. The RTX 3060 Ti - is as fast (or even faster) than a 2080 Super, according to NVIDIA.

Overall, I would rely on the PC configuration, because you have more options there.

Stay healthy!

The PS5 is able to play 8K games smoothly

Even a 3090 doesn't always manage that, so why should a Ps5 do it?

The ps5 can't play native 8k games smoothly either. I'm not even sure whether the native 4K always manages 60+ fps

The PS5 has already shown its power in many different performance tests. It goes without saying that it is not always possible to keep the FPS stable, this varies mainly from the graphics that have to be processed in the respective scene.

No graphics unit (or manufacturer) can guarantee that at the moment.

The Ps5 never creates native 8k; it has far too little power for that.

Exactly. That's why you can't just say that the ps5 can play 8k liquid

I wrote that she is "able". So it is possible that she can do it - doesn't mean that in practice it will be so.

I think you're confusing something here: RTX 3090 = 8k native in some games, PS5 maximum 4k native in ALL games with up to 120 fps.

Since you can't pair PS5s, neither hardware nor software, this is not a question that can be answered meaningfully. Theoretical performance can be measured, but no game runs with the theoretical performance of a system; it depends too much on how the game is optimized. Then there would also be the question of how to pair two PS5s if it were possible. The type of connection is very important. This is also the reason why there are hardly any gaming PCs with multiple graphics cards anymore - it simply failed because they couldn't be meaningfully coupled with one another.

In terms of theoretical performance, the PS5 should have more, but as I said, this is a completely worthless and meaningless statement, since this performance can't be used like that. You could now also start with how many calculators you would need together to beat a PS5 in terms of theoretical computing power, or claim that two Smart ForTwo's with a top speed of 130 km / h each are faster than an Audi A3 with 250 km / h because 130 * 2 km / h would be 260 km / h. But since you can't just add that up, it's just nonsense.

The 3090 doesn't do it natively either, but only with DLSS upscaling. The computational effort of 8K is enormous.

In addition, it is nonsense to compare a console with a graphics card that alone costs three to four times as much as the console.

Not quite true. I think I know that the 3090 games such as Fortnite can run reasonably well in native 8k. But yes, the eternal question of console vs PC… If you can't really compare it, you're right.
