if nothing else, this thread is evidence that most of the benefits pc players spew off is hype and bullshit. so i'm happy about that.
to be FAIR, you and i are in a minority of people who just don't care about things like graphics or any superfluous "advantage" that a gaming pc has to offer
lol fags
yeah but those things aren't worth caring about

your ps4 is also sold at a loss and the loss is made up from developer licensing costs, game sales, and subscriptions like PSN. at this stage in the console life cycle you're really not going to be able to build a more powerful brand spankin new PC for the same price as a a console. you'll have to wait a couple more years for that to be the case and even then with the current market i'm not sure how that'll play out since we have no idea how long chinese bitcoin farms will be causing the price of high end GPUs to rise through the roof. typically your cost saver with a pc is going to be on the long term since you can normally pick up games cheaper on PC than you can on console and you don't have to pay a subscription to play the online portion of most games.
this is pretty cool to know playstation plus isn't necessary, and neither is buying games new, so console gaming really is cheaper

Go to Goodwill or a local thrift store, look around the PCs for a large case, a 450W power supply, hard drives, and RAM.
Intel G4560 $80
Sapphire RX 460 $95
Compatible motherboard $50-60
Total: ~$250
It's not feasible to get a COTS desktop or parts that will play games for $200. If you scrounge thrift stores for miscellaneous parts, you can spend your budget on the motherboard, CPU, and GPU. If you have a desktop already, you likely have many of those cheap parts you can work with.
thanks for the good advice, once i get my license back i'llbe doing this
whats COTS?
and how do i check the specs of my current desktop
Commercial-off-the-shelf, or a pre-built computer you can buy at a store.
Windows 8/10:
Control panel > System & Security > System
Or if you use a program like CCleaner (recommended), it'll show it in the tools sections.
Processor: Intel Core i5 RAM: 4GB thats not bad i don't know my GPU tho

if you look, that's about $200 more than what he asked
just say "it's really difficult/impossible to build a working PC for that cheap" if that's the honest truth
I'll do it, its impossible for him to get a PC that can play PUBG at min specs with that price, the GPU alone is 269.99 USD...
use this
https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/
its the canadian version
if it's under 500 i'll be okay
get as close as you can
thanks hun
wtf literal slave driver
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/P6pg7h
This will do what you want, but not at 500, this is the best it could get and still actually work
low price makes it harder to make things actually work.
so you're telling me it's impossible to get something equivalent in power to a console for the same price cuz my ps4 was 450 CAD bucks and it can run pubg i appreciate your effort here but i guess this is just a testament to the true versatility of pc gaming

the pc community is so helpful
unless you want something that doesn't play to their platform's only strengths, then you can go fuck yourself

how about you just do what i asked instead of trying to do my thinking for me. there are variables you haven't considered or even know about.
Lol
well first, get the stick out of your ass, because I don't have to do shit for you. Second, why don't you tell me whats up so I can actually try to help you.
And sorry, but the laptop thing is a real thing. It might honestly be better for you. It's not me doing thinking for you, it's me trying to tell you what the heck is happening so you don't feel like you waste money. Forgive me if I'm trying to actually help you get the most out of your budget.
it was a joke you autist i'm using a computer with an illegal copy of windows on hardware that was bottom-end in 2004, built to do spreadsheets and nothing else. i already have a good laptop.

Honestly, $550-600 (I spent $520) will be something you'd want, otherwise what you're asking for isn't much. You're not really going to be able to do much at all with $400. Unless you want to cut very dangerous corners, but unless you're looking to play some weird indie games, don't expect top like triple a games to run great.
what's wrong with weird indie games
anything i can't play thats new on my pc will be played on my console.
fuck that i'm not spending 600 bucks wtf
There is nothing wrong with them, they're just obviously not much in performance
and if you're playing new stuff on console and just looking for the off the console game here or there (that isn't an RTS), then yeah you can manage more.
I'm shooting for something around $500 for you, but if you want something for $400, you might as well honestly just get some sort of laptop if you're not looking to play anything triple A tier that would otherwise be on console. You'd just be wasting your money otherwise.

tell me i wouldn't play in 480p
you won't play in 480p
Serious question now, what kind of monitor do you have?
it doesn't matter, i'm not playing on my monitor, i just said that. that being said i have a 1080p monitor with 1ms response time and 60hz refresh rate. its fine but i wont be using it anyway
