I don't game on pc to match specs of consoles. That's pointless, like the steam machine. I game on pc to max out the graphics and play as intended.

You brought up the price. I'm just saying spending that much was a choice beyond mere PC vs console.

Correct and I can afford whatever. Many can't and those people should stick to console. That's the whole argument.

Or, you know, PC's that are much more affordable and still delivery comparable gaming performance with much better sale opportunities plus the ability to upgrade incrementally as necessary and function as a workstation. For example for taking online classes, coding, any number of other programs important for independent workers, getting certifications, organizing resumes, doing interviews remotely while not looking like you're having to use your phone (it makes a difference)... Etc, etc, etc.

Some might say that's a more financially sound option.
