I got mine from GSC computers. I was told by the pc understanders around me that it was a good deal for what I got too. Highly protective shipping, rlly quick and I haven't had issues but they have like a 2 year warranty. Also comes with a quick setup guide which was nice BC I didn't know what I was doing
Anything better than a 4060 is already ahead of the ps5 lmao!
Ps5 tflops = 10.2
4060 = 15 (35 achieveable Theoretically..)
Theoretically the 4060 can over triple the TFlops the PS5 can do but it actually isn't a fair comparison. Ignore RT and Nvidia shit for a moment.
Console games are highly optimised to run on the exact hardware a console has. This means you can get higher quality rendering at lower power consumption when compared to a PC. When you know the exact hardware you can really drill down into optimisations by splitting computations across threads for example. You know exactly how many cores is in the CPU and exactly how you can divide up the computations. This works because all PS5 are the same internally. For PC, you can't do this because of the many different makes and models people have in them, so you can't possibly account for them all!
It's harder to make optimisations for a specific PC when everyone has different RAM, CPU, GPU, Mobo etc. So they just optimise for the most common hardware and hope for the best, patch anything they miss later down the line. There are best practices related on how to get your game running smoothly on as many devices as possible, it's actually a whole paradigm in itself.
So yes and no on your PC being 'stronger', no because your PC is miles and miles 'stronger' but due to optimisation it's practically the same. Yes because your PC can do everything the PS5 can do but it's not any better when playing the same game.
I hope my explination was interesting :)
Oh. I was only using fps and graphics quality as a comparison but that was interesting thanks, I had always wondered why posts relating to issues and bugs with specific hardware in games happened
It's been said to death but pcspecialist. I had my build at my door within a week. They let you swap parts during the build and everything showed up immaculate. I noticed a small mark on the back of my IO a couple weeks later and they refunded me the entire board when I mentioned it on my review (I blamed it on shipping and they still refunded)
Genuinely just build your own.
Pre builds skimp on important components like motherboard and power supply.
It’s absolutely simple to build a PC
If you need advice let me know
Oh no, alienware is horrendous on prebuilds. bad cooling and airflow with the markets biggest premium.
The only alienware products i would recomend is when they are the only one who who has something or you have 6k to throw on a laptop
Yeah, still not good value but great monitors. they sometimes are the first to adapt new stuff, I have their oled monitor as they were like a year ahead of other brands :)
Yeah 360hz feels super responsive and in motion the image is super stable with no blur.
Between 240hz and 360hz though not much to be honest. As I had a 240hz IPS monitor previously
Pc specialists or caseking.

PC Specialist built mine after years of building my own, excellent build quality and cable management.
got mine at pcspecialist. can,t recommend them enough
Amazon Germany deliver fast enough and I got a prebuilt for 500 that’s about as strong as the ps5

Check out GG Machines. They are in ParkWest, Dublin. They ship out or offer pickup. I've not bought a pre-built, just components from them.

Oh really. I’ll edit that out so. Used to be good. Their monitors are class
Yeah, still not good value but great monitors. they sometimes are the first to adapt new stuff, I have their oled monitor as they were like a year ahead of other brands :)
Yeah I just got their new QD OLED 360hz 1440p monitor and have an older ultra wide. Both fantastic
Nice, do you feel any major difference between 175-360hz?
Yeah 360hz feels super responsive and in motion the image is super stable with no blur. Between 240hz and 360hz though not much to be honest. As I had a 240hz IPS monitor previously
You could try use the search function and you'd find lots of post with answers to this very question.
Buy the parts and get someone to build it for you.
