With PS4pro, PC gaming is getting much less attractive

With PS4pro, PC gaming is getting much less attractive.

Remember this is all my opinion, and you have to keep in mind that I take into account the COST of PC gaming.

After seeing the incredible IQ Horizon provides on PS4pro, my first thought was "no way I can achieve that on PC without spending 2000€ or more "

I have a 980ti, 4790K, 16 GB RAM machine and I feel even that won't be enough to get the clean IQ we saw yesterday :

- My rig can't handle 4k without sacrificing all the graphical goodies

- Some games run like shit and require so much better hardware for similar image quality ( I'm looking at YOU Deus Ex MD). Speaking of Deus Ex, seeing they've got a Pro mode coming made me mad when I thought about how it ran like shit on many PCs

- Prices have gone full retard , playing properly on 4K requires a 1080 AT LEAST or a Titan X which is ridiculously expensive

- Console gaming at 30 fps is FINE, but I NEVER managed to achieve console 30 fps smoothness with my PC on my 1080p Panasonic Plasma.

30 fps doesn't bother me and it's a compromise I am willing to do, but I can't achieve it, locking at 30 fps makes the game run like shit and I've tried it all ( RTSS, Half refresh vsync which doesn't really work anymore ...)


I don't wanna spend 1500€ more to be able to play at 4k and finally get good IQ on games (no aliasing first and foremost)


And yes I'm aware that I can get stuff like PCSS and HBAO+ that we won't get anytime soon on consoles but remember that I'm making a compromise between the price and the resulting output. I'm not rich.

With the regular PS4, PC was just the better option, now I'm not sure.

>30 fps doesn't bother me

well, who cares what you have to say about anything really?

- Kill

- Your

- Self

This is just in:
Horizon: Zero Dawn won't support native 4K on the PS4 Pro.

They never sayed it would do native 4k.
Just like the news that with tomb raider you could chose between:
30fps 4k
60fps 1080p medium
30 fps 1080p ultra.

Its a decent gaming rig, it wont blow anything away.

I was impressed when they went al 4k.
But now..not so much.

Just fucking stop with your platform war bullshit. YOU are the cancer. McFucking kill yourself. Please.

>What is upscaling

Fucking b8s

You'll get a few people.

>30 frames per second in the year 2016
>shitty upscaled resolution
>analog stick for aiming in first person shooters instead of mouse
>no mods
>$60 to play online

My sides have departed and have fucked your mother.

Stack more ps4s on top OP

>my rig can't handle 4k without sacrife the graphical goodies
Like the ps4pro? Do people really think they will play on high-ultra at 4k?
Here is a example how it will be:
- 4k low-medium settings shit fps
- 1080p high-ultra 45fps+
- ps4 normal graphics

Thats how it is done one rottr. The 4k is even upscaled and not native. You have a 980ti and still complain? Holy shit the ps4 has a underclocked 480...

I hate sonyggers and shillers like you fag

Literally stopped after the 1st sentence
If anything, this mid-generation hardware upgrade bullshit is making PC gaming MORE attractive
If you're going to spend money on new hardware upgrade your damn PC and you can play shit with much better graphics in it

I hope Sup Forums mods ban you as well.

60$ a year for 24+ games that are atleast worth 100$

If steam had a subscription like ps plus that gave you 2 games to play every month with some months being worth 60$ on their own you would all jump on it like rabid dogs

This would be great if the "value" of the games made them interesting to play in any fucking way. Month in and month out, very rarely is anything actually worth playing from PS+ these days

Oh this is sad

So this thread is recycled?


Oh well
Can't wait for the NX

I already own a PS4 what is the point of buying this. They should have taken the SEGA route an engineered it to be an add-on.

>Sonyboys still think they're getting native 4K

Fucking tip top kek

>buying the same console twice in less than 5 years
consoles lose.

of course the ps4pro™ will play games on ultra settings, just like the ps4™ plays fall out 4™ on ultra settings™.
Sony wont lie to you.

>2d sprites for trees
consoles are a meme.

steam is free and there are like 100 good free to play games on steam. consoles lose.

>30 frames per second
Not everybody is a turbo autist that can't play a game if it runs at 119 FPS like you

>Shitty upscaled resolution
I prefer to play at 1080p upscaled to 4K than to play at 800x600 like most PCs of the price of the PS4 Pro need to do to run a recent game at more that 5 FPS

>No mods
Fallout 4 has mods on consoles
>B-but Fallout 4 is shit
Yes, it is, but everybody praises Fallout and The Elder Scrolls for their modding possibilities so the point still stands

>$60 to play online
See: , even if the PS+ games quality is declining bad free games is still better than no free games, and sometimes a gem like Furi appears.

NEVER FORGET

What neofag thread was this from?

It's called Humble Monthly, is completely voluntary, thus better than PS+ and yet I don't give a fuck about it. Stop projecting, fag

>he likes 30 frames per second
i guess your brain is running at 30 frames per second too
when there are legions of sony fans wanting bloodborne in 60fps and then theres you who is literally willing to eat shit, its actually kind of depressing.

>there are like 100 good free to play games on steam
Name 5 without naming Team Fortress 2 or Dota 2.

>With PS4pro, PC gaming is getting much less attractive.

lol, no.

aaaaand you completely side stepped the argument/moved goal posts.
consoles lose.

>more than 30 fps is now a meme
when before you fucks were estatic about having 60ish on your new consoles

honestly if the ps4pro titles were able/allowed by Sony to deliver 60 ish fps, hardly anyone would be complaining

>tumblr

upvoted

The cheapest PC configuration with an equivalent GPU that matches the PS4 Pro is $742 and still lacking a WiFi card, operation system, mouse and keyboard and shipping costs which easily adds an extra $150

>he thinks WiFi cards are good for video games
LOL

No he didn't. He said name 5 besides the 2 very popular games he stated.

>30 fps 1080p ultra.

>he is to dumb to realize he was talking about making a pc do the same as ps4

>30fps 1080p ultra
literally me playing crysis one on my 2007 computer with 4 gigs of ram, a 3.2gz dual core, and a geforce 8800 gt graphics card.

With the PS4 Pro, consoles are getting less attractive to me

PS4 Pro is just a shitty PC that cant even do native 4K but with shit frame rate

PS4 Pro doesnt do anything new and the only reason I was only kinda interested in a console was for experiences I cant get on PC like Persona 5

PS4 Pro doesnt do anything to try to move PC gamers as stated by Sony

No, you can 4k at 60fps on a 1070.

My 100% new rig has a 1070, a i5 6700k and 16gb ram and cost me £800. If I have to upgrade the graphics card in 4 years it will future proof me against new hardware reqs

4K/30-50FPS on 980 SLI here.
Bought the second 980 for 250 after the 10 series released.

Graphics is just one of the many benefits of pc gaming. The ps4 pro might cover graphics (it doesnt really) but never the rest.

I know this thread is bait, but I have the exact same machine you do and I play at 2k at 144fps on most games.

If you seriously can't hit 30 fps @ 1080 then your computer is broken.

This is just a bizarre post.

What are some nice looking games I can play on my PC?

I5 6600K Skylake etc.
ASUS 1700-A
GTX 660Ti
16GB Ram

t. Dalai Lama

turd man the case includes a power supply

post thicc xbone chan

Can you build a ferrari for the cost of a regular car? No, you cant.

It is expected that you have to spend a little more for something much better.

Finally, the initial cost of pc is higher. Probably 2x or 3x the cost of a ps4 pro. But after a few years you already start saving money by not paying for psn plus and expensive games.

Games on pc get released at 30-45 usd (gmg, nuuvem, g2a, even steam sometimes) instead of the 60 dollars they ask on ps. Finally after 2 or 3 months they get heavily discounted. You dont see those discounts on psn way after 1 year of release. Even the psn plus offers are not that cheap compared to pc offers.

>inb4 but I can keep reselling my game
Yeah, good job having a library of a single game. Plus even if you resell your game, pc games are cheaper.

i have both the original ps4 and the ps3 (and a shit tier pc but that's irrelevant) and i can say for sure this isn't going to change anything, because the ps4 still doesn't have a good library 2 years after its original release. the ps3 is great since it has a huge library of fun games, even if it's graphically inferior. ps4 is just weeb shit and shooters so far, we don't even have a gran turismo game

>people are actually justifying buying a console every 3 years

Remind me how this isn't the same as PC?

The Pro is not HDMI 2.0?

That limits it to 4k30

This is terrible - a huge number of pixels being moved at a slow rate

It's more taxing on the eyes than 1080p30

4k needs 60fps minimum

i'm pretty sure i just saw this same post on neogaf

GLORIOUS PC GAMING MASTER RACE WINS AGAIN

OP IS A FAGGOT

i thought everyone on Sup Forums lived off autismbux
how the fuck is anyone going to afford this

>Remind me how this isn't the same as PC?

Because you don't need to upgrade your PC that often? If you're buying a new gpu every three years you're either A) very rich or B) addicted to upgrades and should really cut back.

Well, for starter, you dont have to pay for multiplayer or cloud saving.

Games are cheaper.

Most of my pc lasts more than 3 years. Hell, people are still running 6 years old i7s and playing everything at max with them.

Also, read the whole post fucking retard, I never justified the console.

You're dumb, obviously

Future hardware will give you this kind of performance at lower price

PS4 Pro 4.2TFLOPS and Scorpio 6TFLOPS will never match over 10TFLOPS GPU in 4K gaming

This is probably the most retarded config I've ever seen in my life. Not mentioning that RX 470 is 400 GFLOPS less than PS4 pro

neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1275525

i'm surprised they actually banned him. these people who shill sony are normally hailed like gods on neofag

1200 bucks is not that expensive for actual 4k/60fps. 4k/60fps is a rich ass eccentricity.

But then again, I do not recommend it. The titan X will be nerfed next gen with nvidia gimpworks and it will work worse than a 1170.

Is not a smart decision to buy one now at such a high price. Better wait for the 1170 or 1180 ti.

>I5 6600K Skylake
>GTX 660Ti
Are you legitimately stupid?

And for 200 bucks you can actually buy a 480 which has more tflops than the ps4.

>Also muh tflops
This is the new mhz/cores meme buzzword. The ps4 pro might as well have 10k tflops, it will always be bottlenecked by the shit cpu.

Buying any PC hardware wasn't smart decision for last 4 years, and probably will never be ever thanks to consoles abandoning generations.

Seriously. I looked at my steam library. I just said uhg. My buddies never have time to play game together.

PC master race, okay. I'll just be waiting for dragon quest and world of final fantasy

what

i7 6700k is 350$ alone

what game?

Those are just parts I had before, bought, etc.

Why are you pairing that CPU with such an outdated GPU? That's a huge bottleneck right there.

so this is the thought process of someone who pays twice for online

I disagree.

My 4790k is still a beast and it has 3 almost years
My cheapass 280x served me well.
And if you buy a 480 or a 1060,70,80 right now will serve you well too for a couple years.
I wont even comment on obvious stuff like hdds, power supply, ram, motherboards which are practically there to stay for another 5 years.

Because GPU are expensive. Just because your Maw bought you a computer doesn't mean everyone else has the luxury of an endless pay roll. I'm waiting until Cyber Monday.

Honestly these days getting a lot of RAM or even large SSD's is becoming more affordable, which is always a good thing.

If you just want to go for 60fps 1080, gpus are now 200-250 bucks. There is no excuse.

I'm waiting for a decent price drop on a 1070.

PCucks confirmed on suicide watch!

We did it Sup Forums, we killed PCgaymen!!!!

The PS4 isn't rendering anything at 4K you dolt. That makes your point on graphical prowess moot.

Why do you shit post? Do you really think getting a couple of teenagers to fall for your "bait" is actually enjoyable?

>I pretended to be wrong on the internet and 2 people called me out on being wrong! Ha, showed them how easy it is to manipulate people

sonyggers are so retarded and fall for buzzwords all the fucking time. Do you guys even know basic hardware knowledge?

this comparison is meaningless for so many reasons I won't even bother getting into it.

>- My rig can't handle 4k without sacrificing all the graphical goodies

Neither can the PS4 """""""pro"""""""

>- Console gaming at 30 fps is FINE, but I NEVER managed to achieve console 30 fps smoothness with my PC on my 1080p Panasonic Plasma.

What the fuck are you talking about you fucking retard.

>I don't wanna spend 1500€ more to be able to play at 4k and finally get good IQ on games (no aliasing first and foremost)

What point are you trying to make ? 1500 on a computer or 359 on that plastic sandwich piece of shit, in both cases you won't get 4K.

Just fuck off with your shit bait already. The PS4 """"pro"""" is nothing else than inferior hardware++ and the so-called 4K will be some upscale shit locked at 20 FPS.

A few fairly obvious things here OP.
1) the footage was show footage not consumer footage don't be a retard.
2) half that shit isn't native 4k.
3( A 980ti still beats it
4) if you seriously cant run games at more than 30fps 1080p on a 980ti you have something wrong. Either serious throttling or your drivers aren like 2 years old.
5) why do you play on a tv or at 30fps?

Gas all neofaggots
