This is a chart that gives you the idea about how much cheaper PC is and the build I made is actually very similar too the build I have listed. There are other reasons why you should switch

Better Game Selection- PC has a better game selection overall you can't deny it there's multiple stores to buy from, tons of free games, lots of genres not widely available on Console.

Better Graphics this is very obvious one but its another to add because we like beautiful games and if you don't then would you rather play watch dogs or battlefield 4 on a NES or a PC?

Mods - PC has lots of Mods that can improve games/ make new games out of old games, Modding is frowned upon on Consoles and some Developers on PC go out of the way to make the game friendly to mods.

More Hardcore/Casual - There's more super hardcore players and we all seen those guys playing StarCraft for hours upon hours without stopping and then there's casual players playing Minecraft or casual indie games.


There's many more pros to be listed but I don't want this thread to be too long

Via article : "For the first web edition of Blueprints, we went big for our Turbo build. Big case, big on memory, and big on video performance. The Turbo is meant for gamers and enthusiasts with deep pockets, so we didn't have to hold back (well, at least not too much)."

You'll get a beast of a computer with $3k budget.

1. Half the parts aren't listed.

2. The parts that are are price paired to unreliable sources. The reliable merchants (like newegg) cost roughly 15% more than the price listings in the chart. So, at best, you're looking at a $750 PC, not including S&H and assuming you don't need better cooling for black tie protection...since not all environments are suitable for case ventilation.

3. PS+ and XBL offer freebies, so the game expense is lower. They haven't really done a great job recently, but their trailing doesn't make for a reliable eight year estimate. If you don't take advantage of freebies though, that's a consumer problem, not a marketing one.

This thread is a scam.

1. This thread is over a year old, no shit the parts might not be in stock. If anything the parts have gotten cheaper & better since then.
2. Not everyone uses freebie games.
3. Your math fuckin sucks because even if you add all that shit up, PC still costs cheaper in the long run.
4. ur a retard m8

1. Consumer problem, not a marketing one.

2. I can't calculate free games in XBL and PS+, but based on history with AAA games, mainstream games will run enough sales to save over $1500 on consoles and $1000 on PC. Projections: They're more reliable than trendsetting.

Did you even bother to check who half the merchants are? Sometimes parts are sold directly from Amazon, which isn't bad...but the rest rely on prices from store pickups (if a store is even near) or are unreliable and have little information on the BBB. A merchant like OutletPC isn't very reliable when reviews are stretched thin. Unless you just don't care where your money goes, but that's contradictory to the message you're trying to pass with this thread.
