With PC getting more and more Playstation "exclusives" and all Xbox first party games on PC, I've been seriously considering ditching those consoles and just sticking to PC and Nintendo systems. Well CE?

once you get a taste of how much better pc gaming is than consoles it's really hard to go back

biggest hurdle is the $$$ investment you have to make going in

Takes less than a minute to install drivers and it barely happens

I feel like anti-PC folks just make up stuff because they don't know computers.

That's part of it. The other part is jealousy.

Nicely since you can buy a 1080ti or Titan Xp for retail.

I'm in the same boat TC. Once this generation of consoles is done I'm switching to PC gaming.

If console manufactures are going to release an "updated" console and then retire it just 2-3 years later I cannot support that model anymore. I'd rather have the freedom to upgrade a single part whenever I deem necessary.

Console revisions and upgrades are more common than any requirement to update drivers.

I tend to find pc gaming cheaper than console gaming once you have got your first one. After that you just need to buy a new gpu once in a while and there's no need to get the most recent one, a 2 year old one does nicely and is affordable. Then you save loads on games during the sales.

PC is awesome, just be prepared to deal with a lot headaches when trying to get older games to run.

Also if you're looking for a good pc, try to find market community sites rather than the mainstream because I got my rig of a MSI Dragon Edition with the latest Graphics for just around 800+ rather than the full 2000+ Dollars. Before anyone asks if I got ripped off..."NO" this beauty has been running perfectly and the only issues I came across was the typical Win10 conflicts with MSI software.

Also those market sites tend to have a lot of nerds that make some awesome custom rigs that they want to sell.

I might do the same.

I used Xbox for a long time and held on to it currently because I game with my brother.

But the game we play together the most is Minecraft. And now Nintendo/Xbox Minecraft crossplay is a thing soooo

or just dont get a 1080 and save a lot of money, chances are most ppl arent looking to max out games at 4k anyway.

Mine is a Nvidia Geforce GTX 1070, personally I have issues with Nvidia in general but so far this thing hasn't decided to self-destruct compared to previous computers I had with Nvidia.
