Terrible situation – power supply fire risk – no operating system – no free games available – no controller included – also won’t function because of a BIOS update
The general consumer market tends to slow down technical progress. Even among PC gamers, many still lack costly premium equipment. The core issue here is that the top tier of the market naturally remains a small group. Consoles are just one sign of this trend. Game creators aren’t prioritizing the linear upgrade in visual quality anymore since most obvious improvements are already made. Pushing for marginally better graphics is becoming increasingly costly, leading to diminishing returns.
You're referring to games that are available without cost, especially those with multiplayer options. PCs typically offer a wider variety of free multiplayer games compared to consoles.
Additionally, the PS4 Pro priced at $400 is a 1TB model, while bundles exceed $400 so I won’t include free games. That power supply could damage your system, and the motherboard is quite average. No operating system or extra accessories are included as he mentioned. The graphics card performs better for 1080p games and feels similar to a 470 to 480.
These midrange graphics cards are quite affordable these days. Just a year ago, such performance would have cost over $400. Professional gamers don’t usually need that kind of upgrade speed. Check the Steam Hardware Survey – only about three-quarters of users have a DirectX 12 compatible card, meaning roughly a quarter are using cards from around four years back or older, including some built-in options. Among those, just 5% run the GTX 1060, and just 1.1% have an RX 480 (some data is outdated or refers to the RX 580).
