Since neither of those are available or cheap. Crazy world.
how much would a gaming pc cost if it's no more powerful than a ps5/xbx?

Fuck it, it's fine.
I don't know what the specs are for a PS5. I think it might be difficult to compare.
But look here for a range of different set ups.

I'm sure it is, if you know what you're doingI don't know what the specs are for a PS5. I think it might be difficult to compare.

. Sadly I don't and don't really trust myself to do so.

It doesn't cost anything and is a learning tool with example builds etc.I'm sure it is, if you know what you're doing

How the PS5's Specs Compare to a High-End PC
While a PS5 and a PC have a lot of differences, it'd be interesting to build a PC that could trade blows with Sony's latest and greatest.
gamerant.com
A PS5 can cost as much as $500 while the proposed PC build can cost up to, if not more than, $1600.
You can't outbuild Sony cheaply. They have a huge economy of scale advantage.
You can build a nice PC for $500 but it won't match the PS5 for high end gaming spec.

More then a PS5. I'd look at company like PC Specialist if you don't feel comfortable building as they will use off the shelf parts, which will make your life easier in future.

This is from 2021. Agree about the price.
It's also gets confusing as its hard to compare like for like. Consols are very good at running with the limited hardware they have. Whilst they appear to output at 4k, they mostly don't.

I just fancied playing Mortal Kombat 1. Can't really afford a console, and certainly not for one game.

You can stream some PC games if you've got decent Internet, but sadly this doesn't look to be on any of these platforms such as Geforce Now.
You can rent a gaming PC in the cloud with a service like Shadow PC, but that costs more.
I've used Geforce now and it was great, but limited games got me to buy a GPU. I belive ruffneck23 has experience.

My internet can't cope with anything like that tbh.

Geforce now is good but limited, I did the same as UnderOpenSky and got a gfx card.
Shadow is pretty good though, it's a full pc with decent gfx you can put your games on , but again depends on your internet connection ( iirc it needs about 15-20Mb ) but its a little pricey although you could just use it for a month.

Amazon says they'll deliver one tomorrow when I checked just now
Still not cheap tho, but cheaper than a gaming PC innit

Sure, for £500 odd. Sadly the price isn't going to drop anytime in the foreseeable, which is too badAmazon says they'll deliver one tomorrow when I checked just now

that's the last generation of xbox though, isn't it? Isn't the series X the latest?

No its the same gen, but a lower powered one they made to sell more cheaply.

Has less storage, can't do 4k most of the time and has no disk drive. But only costs £250. I have been pretty happy with mine.

Tbf an X doesn't do 4k most of the time.

Interesting. I had an xbox during the pandemic. I thought it was the series S. I've no idea, can't remember. Pretty sure I bought it prior to the release of the X.
Maybe I could trade up my ps4 pro. Can't really justify spending big bucks for MK1, although I did enjoy state of decay, and there's Starfield. But the issue for me was that installing a game meant simultaneously installing the update which meant having to download tens of gb of data simultaneously. It just isn't practical for me as I'm still on ADSL and it takes about an hour for 2gb, if I'm lucky.
Could look into it I guess, thanks

Well starfield is not comming out on PlayStation anyway.

That's too bad. I can't upgrade my internet. Don't have the money. I imagine the games I'd be playing witll be pretty huge.

Yeah, I can't justify that for just a couple of games. Plus I'd only be shit at MK1 anyway and complain the game sucks
