DarkRoast 03/09/21 8:58:31 PM #5:	I still can't believe how lucky I got with the PS5 pre-order. I bought one of those ridiculously overpriced Gamestop bundles, but one of the games was cancelled as a retail product (Destruction All-Stars) which resulted in GS redoing the bundle into individual products, which I was able to return in-store. Extra controller, Miles Morales, etc. --- Razer Blade 15 - Core i7-9750H, 32 GB RAM (2666), RTX 2080 MQ <cite>DarkRoast posted [p:951538013] in Remember w...

It's more powerful than the Series X / PS5, and by a huge margin. @DarkRoast You are exaggerating really just how large a margin the graphical differences are. When you can buy a ps5 for $500, compared to just a single part of a PC which is the RTX for near a thousand dollars, then needing another thousand or more in the other parts to match up to the gaming quality of the RTX. You are looking at the highest end PC being a couple thousand dollars. With the ps5 you will have it for 10 years without needing any upgrades for the graphics that next gen is gonna bring, compared to interval upgrades needed for a PC to run the same graphics <cite>EricDraven59 posted [p:951538901] in Remember w...

DLSS will stay a limited gimmick unless nvidia magically makes it open source. hopefully AMD gets their shit together and brings out their promised alternative. the sheer fact that they've got control over consoles and could easily make use of it there means that its the winner out of the gate. --- Taarsidath-an halsaam.

At least you were a lucky person to find it for the lower price. I mean i am not a PC user at all, i dont own a PC but i read about different technologies. And yes the RTX 3080 is the top tier graphics card, but i still believe that a $500 ps5 can put out nearly the same level of graphics. I mean next gen gaming, ps5 and xbox series x, only started a few months ago.
