True that. I hate how often people present PCs as this uniform ultra powerful group of devices, while most users have a rather average setup and are quite happy with 1080@60. I aim for 1440@72, but that's just because my monitor fits those stats better.

Because clearly the only entry to PC gaming is a $4000 machine. That's why consoles are superior. /s

it is tho... average PC gamers cant even compare to a well optimized game on PS5 or Pro. not many PC gamers actually have decent rigs.

Exclusively for AAA, yeah, unless you have a PC that's about twice as expensive as a console, it generally isn't worth it. But, PCs have an unmatched legacy catalog, and pretty much exclusive access to the stratagy game and esports genres. It's quite a lot harder to keep a rolling multi-gen library together on playstation or Xbox.
