However the problem with that is PC games NEED stronger hardware in order to achieve the same performance levels the PS5 gets simply due to there being more overheard or background processing involved on a PC. PS5 and other console games can be coded closer "to the metal" than on PC and as such can have access to more of the system's resources, even if the system overall has less of them.
This hasn't really been true for a while now. I don't dispute that a PS5 is better value up front (mostly because there's very little profit on the hardware) but they're also made of pretty off the shelf parts these days and most of the software runs through APIs. It runs comparably to a similarly speced PC. Even today, the PS5 has to make quite a lot of compromises to maintain healthy framerates.
That doesn't mean it isn't great for its price, but it's pretty far from the days of consoles leaving PCs in the dust.
