Is there a gaming computer build that cost 350$ (Keyboard and mouse needs to be apart of the 350$) or under that price that can outperform an xbox one the xbox one can run bf4 with some low medium and a couple high settings at 60 fps with 64 players. Just curious i dont think its possible though lol
 
Solution
Xbox One will play Fallout 4 and Star Wars Battlefront i.e. with decent fps and graphics details - and to get the same result with a pc, you´d have to get a much stronger gpu than a GTX 740. Thats why 02david´s solution is found wanting.

In short, there is no 350 USD pc gaming rigg that will perform as well as Xbox One currently. But the comparison itself is crap, since its like comparing apple to oranges.

Consoles primary concern is to deliver gaming experiences and even though you may watch movies on them or use them for skype, they are not ideal for stuff like work, school or basic emailing. Any gaming rig will be able perform work, school and email correspondonce at a much better level than consoles. Heck, a simple task like...


Well I just watched the first video and he clearly states in the description he gets 25FPS on very high not 60. :/
 
yes that pc does suck and i would never reccomend anyone to buy a gaming pc for 350$ its just not worth it, but pc gaming is a whole new world all gamers should experience, but in no way does it mean if you console game you are poor or not a true gamer

well yes of course he only gets 25 fps on a demanding game at nearly maxed out settings that FAR exceed the graphical settings of the ps4 or xbox one.

Drop the settings down to what the equivalent graphical settings that the ps4 runs at and 60 fps becomes easily obtained
 
I'd like to add to the discussion. The current next gen consoles are played by people who just like to put a disc in and worry later. They don't know what a "frame drop" is and have "never" experienced it before. I went to a friend's house who has an xbox one and he was playing fallout 4 and I could see some intense stuttering and frame dips that he said he could not see. PC gaming is a totally different scenario. PC gaming is different because your initial cost is higher, but the overall cost of playing games AND also having an object that can work as a word processor, emailing machine, youtube streamer, etc. is the real plus to PC gaming. When you have a PC that can game, you don't need to shell out another $350 when you want to play a game. Download the game and play it! That simple.

Consoles do have their uses though. More people get mad at computers for being slow because there is always things you can do to speed them up. For imbeciles consoles are good because you just think that its loading or doing something else when in reality its being just as slow and stuttery as the PC is.
 


So then why are you continuously bitching about why people are stating pc is better? You make literally 0 sense. Your topic is extremely opinion based, I state it and now you're still getting bitchy. Why do you own a console if you knew from the start PC was better? I gave an extremely dual sided answer, I did not cater to one side. I said both have their own uses. Don't start bait threads and then flame people for what they think.
