    The high end PC part market, especially GPUs, is heavily controlled by scalpers as well, similar to brand new consoles.

      That’s true, but you don’t need super high-end parts to game on PC. You do need a PS5 to play PS5 games.

          Depends on effort and money. Ps5 wouldnt be too hard to beat, pro is a bit harder.

          Find a video that someone calls their PC a ps5 or ps5 pro killer, go up a couple steps on the important shit, done.

          If money is a concern, second hand for CPUs and GPUs is fine. If money isn’t a concern just throw a large pile at a major manufacturer. I have a high end gaming laptop that is super bad value but it definitely crushes every console by a significant margin.
