How Much is Next Gen PC?

Motherboard 100

CPU 200

Video 200

Memory 100

HDD 100

Total 700

I can give specifics if your actually interested.

How much would be a PC with the video card/ memory/ processor speed needed to play next gen games? Like play Halo 3 and GOW just as good as a 360?LastLaugh90

$700

On par with 360? $700

Id say $800-$1000 to run the newest PC games on high like Crysis.

That new Blackbird PC from HP...... $5,500. :D

I really want that PC. :(

You already have a PC.. Just upgrade it.

$500 worth of upgrades will get you past 360/PS3 graphics

basically if you want a pos with crappy hardware,an old crappy monitor,dirty keyboard, mouse thats older then your granny and will barely be able to play the upcomming games, sure it will cost 700Sl1ckK

you're making things up and trolling this topic.

He might have a Motherboard with an APG port. So how can you upgrade that.

Wow, you registered to say somethign stupid likethat???

By 700$, they assume he already have these items, since he is posting his message with a keyboard/mouse/monitor.

By APG, I assume you mean AGP right?

You should read my link, a new motherboard is included in the cost.

Lucky Americans getting cheap hardware :( (compare the where I live)

coolmonkeykid

yes but to run 360 games more like $400-$500

the 360 has the power of a BUGET gaming pc. a 8600gt is slightly more powerfull the the 360 and is dirt cheap. any dual core cpu leaves the x360 in the dust and can be had for a bout $50. to match the 360 cost very little but to have a highend gaming pc that destorys ps3 and x360 combined cost maybe $200

I have a 8600GT.

Is it slightly more powerful than my 360 from my experience?

-shakes head- Not from the games I play.

Since devolepers only have to work with one hardware with the 360 they will of course look better

That's what I'm saying.

I'm sure if the devs only worked with a 8600gt they could do some real miracles.

That's the downside of developing for a PC.

Build your own and you could easily get out under $1000 minus the monitor. Add a couple hundred for that and you're good to go.

Actually, you could play most next-gen games on a $500 PC, but don't expect them to look very nice.

Ya true

$16,600 dollars, but don't worry they have a 0% financing offer for 12 months, so thats only $1383 a month ;)

Haha, as good as a 360

NOT MUCH

Run your games at 1280*720 like the 360 (Though some games run even lower) and youll find that 8600GT does very well.

I bet World in Conflict ends up running better on 360 than it does with a 8600GT. Keep in mind the benchmarks below is with a 8600GTS, and thats slightly better than a 8600GT

I don't think so fanboy. 360 has performance more inline with a X1950XT.

My PC is better and cost less.

Too run games as good as the xbox360?

Well some 700$ is easily enough to best it.

I don't think so fanboy. 360 has performance more inline with a X1950XT.

So youre saying that the 360 will deliver same settings that the X1950XT has? Same deph field? Nope not enough RAM... Same textures? Nope not enough VRAM... Also while the vertical resolution of 720p is low compared to 1024 of the PC setting...

I'm saying World in COnflict on 360 will be equal to a 1950XT on High Settings and about 30FPS

A 7600GT can't run Bioshock at high settings with VSync on and 30FPS. Not even close. A X1950 however can.
