So this video is a bit of a build guide while showing the future of how gaming consoles might kill building custom computers.
This computer I put together takes a lot of the cheaper parts that surround a higher end graphics card that is also purchased as cheap as well. It took me a while to try and get the build this cheap and the core parts of it are actually something you can do yourself so if you want to build something like this the parts list is here below!

The problem is Teraflops isn’t a perfect measurement. It’s used every time a new console comes out to showcase how ‘powerful’ they are. However every time it’s actually tested, this isn’t the case. Clock speed of the GPU, the type and amount of VRAM and actual architecture of the GPU matter way more in real life application than “teraflops”. Just wanted to put this here because as a PC KZbinr I believe you should have said something about how teraflops aren’t a measurement used for the purpose the Sony’s marketing is using it for.

[@Steamrick]

I'm impressed with the price to performance of this build. But it's very far from matching a PS5. 1) The PS5 digital edition is the correct comparison to a PC without bluray drive and that's launched for $399 MSRP 2) 240GB bottom of the barrel SATA SSD vs. Sony's 800GB super-fast SSD? Beyond laughable. 2.5) Depending on which game you want to play, you'll only fit a single game like COD: Modern Warfare (2019) with its 175GB install size on the SSD. Have fun. 3) That R5 1600 isn't close to cutting it, the most equivalent CPU is a R7 3700X 4) TFLOPS is a terrible way of measuring GPU power because it does NOT translate into FPS. 5) Both GPUs only do 6GB VRAM, that's not going to be enough to match PS5 on textures and shadow quality 5.5) Only the RTX 2060 actually supports ray tracing to put it on feature parity with the PS5 in that regard, putting you way over budget 6) Nor is 8GB RAM going to be good enough for some games and measly 2666 MHz will actually cost you a fair bit of performance 7) A $40 case is miserable to build in 8) The video outright says to get a PSU secondhand from a friend. DO NOT CHEAP OUT ON YOUR PSU!

[@Steamrick]

Oh and PS5 GPU performance is closer to the 2070 Super *before* considering optimisations.

[@EfecanYSL]

@@Steamrick thanks..saved me the trouble of writing all of that myself. i mean the guy basically weaseled his way out of the comparison with that ''TFlops'' bullshit. That PC he built is around 150 dollars more expensive than a PS5 and is nowhere near as good in terms of Case, PSU, RAM, CPU, SSD. GPU is the only thing that's close to PS5 performance. I mean PS5 plays DMC5 on 4K 60 FPS with RT mode On. Hits 4K(Dynamic) 120 but RT off. good luck to that PC matching that. copied most of your comment to make my own comment. again thanks for your effort.

The question is wether you want to do that. I personally buy consoles specifically because I want a system that is just for gaming and nothing else (ok except maybe for Netflix). My favorite gaming device right now is Nintendo Switch. It's plug and play and super convenient. I do work on my Laptop, don't need a PC rig for that

[@Naruxos07]

@@teehundeart You can just put your OS on a M.2 SSD, and it'll load programs faster than the PS4 can load games. There's frontends like Launchbox and GOG Galaxy that can be used to load games from different launchers and emulators in one location. Not to mention that a custom built PC offers better remote play capabilities than either PS4 or Xbox since console manufacturers tend to cheap out on network cards. With all that in mind, a PC can be made to be more convenient than a console. With a frontend and a fast SSD, I can go from loading Dark Souls 3 to MegaMan Battle Network to Virtual On to DMC 5 to God Hand which is a process that would require me to constantly swap out my consoles. In my opinion, eliminating the process of swapping out consoles just to play different games is the ultimate form of convenience. With that said, I'm not hating on your gaming preferences, brother. I like gaming on the Switch, and No More Heroes 3 is my most anticipated game of the year. Astral Chain, BOTW, and Fire Emblem 3 Houses are among my favorite games this gen.

[@sauceontheside2804]

Bx Dx you cant build a computer as powerful as the ps5 for $400 and even if you use used parts your chances are low

[@monarchu]

@@sauceontheside2804 nah its straight up impossible, And its not fair to compare a brand new ps5, to some used parts that are 2 years old. Also its not just the system, remember that you get a very advanced controller finally exceeding the switch controller, which up to now had been the most advanced controller in the world. Also, you get an HDMI cable so for what it's worth I think its good to mention it. Im going to love pc channels trying to scramble their words to make it seem they built a pc as powerful as the ps5, for the same price. Keep in mind they are not allowed to use a gpu without rt cores, because the ps5 does support ray tracing. Once a youtube shows me a build that performs better than the ps5 and with the controller, I shall say they are better value. And it cant be one of those stupid videos showing a game running at low settings and getting higher fps than console, because I just saw one trying to say they had just built a pc for 250 and it was more powerful than the series x because it could do fortnite 1080p low settings and get 165fps, then when I commented to try epic settings at 4k and see what fps he would get there, his response was that no one plays that way : D.

According to the developers from “Deliver Us the Moon”, who are producing a game for the next-gen consoles and PC, the consoles perform close to a 2070 Super, and considering the specs, I’m expecting the CPU to be close to a 3700x, so this build isn’t a console killer unfortunately, and I don’t think a 2070 Super with a 3700x is an 800$ computer, for that we’ll have to wait until 2023-2024 to get a true console killer for 400$ (probably the PS5 price will drop to this value by then) And by the way, the RTX 2060 isn’t capable of 12 teraflops of 32-bit, I genuinely laughed when you said that, because the PS5 has 10.28 teraflops of 32-bit, while the RTX 2060 has 6 teraflops of that same metric, and 12 teraflops of 16-bit (the PS5 has 20.56 tflops of 16-bit) No hate towards your video, but I just wanted to leave this here

"There has never been a moment in history when buying a console was better than building your own pc" uhhh I love pc gaming but there's many times in history when consoles made more sense. i know not a lot of people care about retro stuff now but this was absolutely not the case early on in games. When gaming was still primarily 2D, PCs simply didn't have the graphics horsepower to do fast, smooth scrolling because of specialized hardware on NES and other consoles of that era. When Sonic was zooming at 60fps, platformers were basically impossible on PC. Commander Keen was a huge step forward. It wasn't til 3d games came that pcs started to make more sense, with doom being the real showcase. It wasn't til recently that the libraries of consoles and PCs were similar. If you're a JRPG fan like I am, a PS2 back in the day made a ton more sense because uh jrpgs didn't come to pc. When consoles typically come out, they're usually better buys than PC because console makers subsidize the hardware with accessories and games, while having high end hardware. the 360 back in the day was a great buy in regard to price to performance, with the 360's GPU being faster than the fastest Nvidia Card (7800 GTX) out at the time and cheaper for an example. PCs being a better buy than console is a relatively new phenomenon. This generation with Xbox One and PS4 is honestly a bit of an exception rather than the rule

*nods* The only time PC had consoles clearly beat is with the PS4/Xbox One. Both going with PC hardware (from AMD) made comparing it to PCs easy and the comparison didn't look good. They went with a plain bad laptop CPU and a mid-range graphics cards - and the price wasn't even that good, I think these were also the first consoles ever from Sony/MS that sold with a profit on every unit since day one. They both cheaped out and made very mediocre consoles. Other times it was either in a bit of a grey area where something could be said for either side or consoles were straight up simply better. And thankfully after that weird one off we're back to the consoles being up there with high end PCs. Give it a year or two and midrange PCs will likely offer similar performance and for the remaining 8 years after that whilst we're waiting for the PS6/XBox something PCs will have consoles beat again.

[@Jahh_2s]

@@Axeiaa???? The GPU in the next gen consoles 8s equivalent to the 5700/5700xt, Wich is a mid- high end card .. the cpu is a downclocked Ryzen 3700, so more like a 1700/2700...

500 dollars for a really good ps5 me: damn, now if only I didn't have to buy online ps5 to play online which eventually adds up... Edit: it seems I've started some kind of pc console war in the comment section... if you guys want my take since I have a pc owned a ps2 Xbox 360 and on weekends I go to my cousins which have 2 ps4. Nintendo switch with like 15+ games (60$ each lul Nintendo), Xbox one with the game pass. My take is console has definitely become more viable of an option but is really hard for me to choose as a pc player who doesn't like yearly or monthly stuff which add up (would take a big chunk of my money which id rather save up for the next thing id buy whether that be pc or something. and don't have parents who'd by a switch game on a whim +3 Nintendo consoles that my cousin's tiny brother destroyed) id rather just collect free games from epic games (which overall have been better than ps4, xbox one, Nintendo switch "free games" still pretty gud *sometimes*) and save up money for masterpieces which I can buy for dirt cheap and complete such as dungeon which I got for 5$ on sale and sometimes I hear bundles are good but don't tend to be on the lookout. Also checked today that the game pass is on both console and pc and without a dought one of the best deals for short term to me (maybe create multiple accounts to keep getting that 1$ deal on games which progress isn't a priority) overall when it comes to discord, youtube, email. gaming etc. is a lot more convenient as you can have things running and playing on the background and foreground seamlessly. I want to add more of what I think are the pros and cons of each console, pc whatever but on a finished note, il say me and my brother are saving up around 1000$+ in which well buy a new pc and do a build where i will document what is the best price/quality u can get for the money we have at the time for our purposes... *If your read trough this far thank u =)*

A few things: 1. the 1600 for $105 is the AF model so its basically a slightly lower clocked 2600. It is a 2000 series cpu even though it has a 1000 series name and is the smaller nm architecture. 2. I'd recommend grabbing the ASRock B450M Pro4 for $80. Much better mobo and can overclock. Plus its a 400 series board instead of the 300 series board. So that is an extra $25 to spend on it instead of the better GPU. As someone who has had two 300 series boards, they are not that good and have stability issues. 3. From #2, you can grab another set of sticks bringing the ram to 16GB. So that's another $30 there. Possibly less since youd be buying a pack of four rather than two packs of two.

[@JCerris]

I agree with your first two points, but I wouldn't buy two kits of 2x4gb for 16gb. I understand there's a small increase in price, but if you want 16gb then get a 2x8gb kit with better timings, say 3000mhz cl15, and it'll run at its xmp more reliably than having 4 sticks. That way you have room for an upgrade to 32gb in the future.
