Beter grafixs

Playing with a mouse > controller.
Graphics > consoles
Modding > consoles
Overclocking > consoles
4k gaming > consoles
Everything > consoles

better graphics, better modding, more precision with mouse and keyboard. higher customization on pc itself to built one suited to personal taste/needs.

>cheaper
>upgradable
>more games
>mods
>games cost less
>better chats and interaction with others
>can use a controller if you wish (but mouse and keyboard is always better)
>better graphics
>better frames
>better experience
>mulitple monitor support
>can download pr0n and do work on it too

TLDR; youre a stupid fag if you need it to be explained to you

Becouse nothing beats mouse

Also pic exclusives...

It does everything better. Also, play a PC game from 2001 on a modern PC and then play a console game from 2001. Thanks to being able to max out graphics and performance (including beyond original intended limits) old games hold up much better years later on PC.

It runs games at better fps and at higher graphics quality than consoles.
Its also customisable and you dont have to pay to play online.
There is also a shit load of games for it.
There are also a lot more reasons why its the best platform but it suffers from one major issue, being that if you play on PC other people thibk you're a nerd virgin fag.

Console Is The Best You Fags Are Just Salty

Also doesnt have to be a chunky thing like in your pic OP. I build a low profile gaming pc for £350. Just boot it in media mode and switch onthe tv if I wanna watch shows and movies. More storage too

Idk man. Playing some games with mouse is annoying.

>cheaper
ahahaahahaha
HAHAHAHAHHA
consoles are cheaper.
$350 for a ps4
$700 for a decent PC that can play overwatch on ultra

Yeah, I cant fucking stand wasd controls.

>cheaper
>games cost cheaper


>you're the biggest dumbshit ever

if you believe overwatch is on ultra on ps4 you are a fucking retard

You probably have poorer genetics

I use consoles

PC Is For Richfags

God damn, are people really this STUPID?

You can easily play with a traditional gaming controller on a PC if you so desire.

Another reason why PC is the master race, the options are leaps and bounds above consoles.

Literally all home console's have over PC is their exclusives, and that's it, and they are the worse this generation than they've ever been.

pc's are way more powerfull and if u like console becuz of the controller u can attatch a xbox one or an ps4 controller to u pc the grapics are better less lag more games mods it willl pay itself back cuz most things are less expancive for pc

*You're

>Cheaper
How?

Honestly some games are better on console. I mean even if it looks like shit compaired to pc, the controls can somewhat be better on SOME games. Plus most of my friends are faggots and spent their money on xbones and ps4s

>i'm a professionist gamer

Bitch i made my computer with 300€ and i can run overwatch on high just fine.

I like PC gaming, cause it's not like you'll fall into a coma or something...

this, i hate my friends play xbone

watch porn at 8k 144hz on ultra settings, why do you come to /b with these questions? go to /g with this you silly willy

Plus you can give all your hard earned money to gabe and get nothing in return

Just overall better because you can buy better parts. Which gives a better gaming experience.
It's not cheaper, but in exchange we have Steam. And Steam can have VERY good deals on the games you want. So it equals out.

>when your life revolves around video games so much you spend thousands of pounds buying a special PC to play them

that's really sad

>Pc is expensive
I just built a pc that can play gta on ultra at 60 fps 1080p. With Logitech g930 and gta and bo3 for £400

This is now a Pc masterrace thread. Post what you got!
>i7 6820HK
>16 gb ram
>GTX 980
All in a laptop

Better fps better fov faster refresh rates faster loading better communities your a cuck best games easier to get games faster download speeds porn etc etc etc

I must have missed when 980s became compatible with laptops

Im gonna counter all the pc lovers with one word as to why pcs are NOT better than consoles....

Viruses!!!

bullshit, i bet you didn't count OS/monitor/speakers

They are.

Add in the cost of the games and the PC is suddenly A LOT cheaper.

FREE GAMES!!!!

Didn't need speakers cos of the headphone used a spare TV for monitor or you could buy a screen for £50 AND I bought the os for £15

Hm, implying its running even on medium half-the resolution on ps4. Double the price for quadruple the performance.

Ive seen many ~400€ PCs outperform all consoles in every way, i don't really see a reason for getting a console this day and age.

you only get virus if you are utter and complete retard

if you have dual monitors you can watch pr0n or surf the web while playing your games

like user said you can use a console controller

it's also easier to use the internet or watch shit than using your xbone or ps4

u jelly console fags?

Be like techrax. He buys consoles just to destroy them.

No Cause You Paid More Money Than Us

The most exciting part of PC gaming is anticipating the blue screen.. If you get one full day without a crash then you are lucky.

It's a 980m, it's not a real 980, it's the laptop edition.

>only 1 tb of hardrive space

Hm yes.. Exclusives...

We can tell you're either black or a consolefag since You Type Like This

yes, i can play everygame on ultra, also, i dont have to play for single player games like you because i can just torrent them.
you end up spending enough money on a console buying games, might as well get a pc

You wouldnt really count your TV within the price of a console either.

Steamfag

Ah beg your pardon then, I didnt realize the 900 series had m versions

> This guy is right

This guy is right, you can build a PC that is both more powerful and cheaper then a console, but you could also spend crazy money on it, but still

why would i need more, when i stop playing a game i uninstall it, i have other tb hdd but i dont even bother installing it

Those specs are the same as a MacBook from 2011 fag

Yes, but there are still laptops with legitimate 980's in them.

> What does it exactly do better than consoles?

The question is, what do consoles do better than a pc?

Here's a list:
Exclusive titles
Cheaper than a pc

That's literally it.

It lets people overcompensate for their 2 inch prick by spending several grand on a setup that'll be obsolete in a year or two.

Some one explain to me why I should pay £500 to play DOOM at a better resolution and frame rate when I can play the game (perfectly fine at 60 FPS) for £200? It's like saying that you can't enjoy GTA San Andreas because it doesn't look amazing or play at 90 FPS or whatever it has to be
>inb4 lol salty?, aha you can't afford a pc
No I'm not salty and yes I could afford a pc if I wanted to but I'd rather get a ps4 and a 40 inch tv than a mid range PC

More often than not it isn't even cheaper

PC hardware is a bigger investment, but the games are cheaper

Console hardware is cheaper, but the games are more expensive

you can build a PC that's faster then a given console for the same money, so not even cheaper then PC

Pretry much this

For a decent pc rig the graphics card alone is gonna run more than a current gen console

Glad to have an actual internet connection aren't you.
90's would like to call us, but we're still reserving their line!

If you count the cost of games, then you're right.

>paying $50 for a game

I'll just head over to pirate bay, thanks.

see

- and a PC is much more versatile

In the long run pc is cheaper bro.

...

better graphics and customizable to infinitity

Alienware is actually very expensive and looks ugly next to the PS4. Eeveryone knows they are the best. No one on PC can play the last of us.

You can build a very high end PC or build one that is the same price as a console, run the games better then consoles.

Is this true? Components can be expensive.

But those are things most people would like

What I like about pc is the options. There are so many things you can do. I love being able to have 10 different controllers work on it no problem. Ps2/3, 360, GC, wiimote etc etc. It's great when people come over and have a controller preference.
I love the graphics and the frame rates. It's like playing a different game when you compare. I also love the mods for the same reason. It changes games completely whether it be graphically or gameplay wise.
I can go on and on. The ability to have options is what keeps me playing on pc. Also, having your own personal build feels great.

.....
I don't even..

Sitting on a couch playing split screen with friends will always make you feel like less of a fag than going to a lan party.

Not even that long, last time i checked there were big studio games -70 to -90% off

...

...

Yes true, just have to know what you do

hahh... uncharted alone already destroys at least 30 of thoose miniclip games... kek

>lel can't afford console games poorfag
i used to be pc masterrace then i bought a ps4 and its serving me well

i mean fuck it, if i want to play i just plug it on. with pc its not so simple. you have to deal with annoying windows updates, plug in game controllers, deal with gfx settings in game. probably low frame rate when dealing with new games because of shitty coding

in theory pc is always better but ps4 is more practical

> (OP)

>Playing with a mouse > controller.
Most people play with a controller on pc no difference.

>Graphics > consoles
Yes but the gap keeps getting smaller, game informer says the next generation of consoles will close the gap.

>Modding > consoles
Yes, but with the work Microsoft and Bethesda are doing, modding will soon be as much a part of consoles. Sony also has a modding program in the works

>Overclocking > consoles
Doesn't matter unless your system is older than time

>4k gaming > consoles
Hate to keep quoting game informer but 4k gaming is just around the corner for consoles, I've already got a 4k TV in preparation.

>Everything > consoles
For now, soon everyone will be on console because of ease of use. The reason people prefer pc is because it is ahead of the trend and it's update able for the future but after consoles catch up and it's cheaper to buy a new console rather than update your pc specs. Things will change. Even steam is almost dropping the rest of its work for its vr project being that it will be the longest for console to adapt to unless Microsoft just goes fucking ham and that company delays to much so I'm not counting on it.

>Salted edgeLord response incoming

Oh man you haven't gotten to try any of them out? I feel sorry for your loss.

>annoying windows updates, plug in game controllers, deal with gfx settings in game. probably low frame rate when dealing with new games because of shitty coding

I haven't really encountered these issues often. Windows updates are infrequent, game controllers are easy to set up(in the unlikely event that they are more suited to a game than a mouse and keyboard), graphics settings in game take like a minute to change, and the low frame rate argument isn't accurate either.

This. It's better when everyone comes over. Playing local coop games on a pc hooked up to a 120 projector screen is the best. It's fun to play heavily modded 2k, rocket league or project kapedani with friends over.

Thanks for pointing out why the PC is the master race. And for your anecdotal insight.

>just around the corner
Youre barely even getting to fullHD? Can't imagine four times higher any time sooner than another decade.

Shooters play better with mouse and keyboard, and this used to be true for RPGs too.

Just cause it's PC doesn't mean you don't have to exclude using a controller
Xbone controller with wireless adapter
Logitech cheap wired controller
360 controller wired or wireless w/ adaptor
Bluetooth PS4 controller using thrid party to use with steam

Pro gamer here *waves and puts his chin up high* I would never touch le dirty peasant console XP. PC *ahem "personal computers" for the smart people out there* provide better stuff than le dirty consoles Xd

~$450 for a build with an AMD RX 460 and it'll play Overwatch on Ultra at 60 fps.
$400 for a brand new console + a year of xbox live/psn and you're over the cost of a pc.
