Upgrading from Playstation 3

[Randompersonwantstopcgame]

I still haven't upgraded from PS3 and want to start PC gaming. So what would be a build that is comparable to PS4 performance at the cheapest possible price (without cheaping out on components that you shouldn't like PSU)

Hardware for console is very very different from PC hardware.
Therefore is not a fair comparison to pick equivalents.

How much is your budget? We'll help you pick the best build possible within that.

I can see how my wording was a bit confusing. I mean hardware that will perform as well as a ps4, not hardware the same as Ps4 or pc version if that makes sense. I refer to the ps4 just to show the sort of frame rate and graphicsi want as i don't want to spend too much but want it to perform well enough.
My budget is however much that costs.
Thanks.

Without Windows and peripherals this is a solid budgety build.
Will play about anything in medium @1080p with solid FPS.

Personaly I would get Pentium G4560 and pair it with RX 470, since the Pentium is really cheap and has HT (4 virtual cores).
