Next gen vs last gen vs entry PC vs Uber PC

About as balanced a review you can get surprisingly.

God damn i wish BF4 was running in 1080p on ps4 :( i will never get over this.

Linustechtips is the bomb, literally my most watched subscription on youtube.

The proof is clear as day in the comparison

1. PC (High end)
2. PS4
3. PC (Console level)
4. Xbone
5. 360/PS3

The Xbone really is dissapointing though, that BF4 footage looked terrible.

You give PC gamers a bad name, stop it.

Off-topic: But could I just ask what game that is in your sig? Please don't tell me that's a sneak peak of the new God of War on PS4 because that looks phenomenal.

Thats the new trailer for the Witcher 3.

love this guy very informative.

tlhbo.

To reduce Uber gaming PC cost, swap out GeForce 780 for $399 Radeon HD R9-290.

Please don't laugh at me. lol :(

You want to run a 780 on that PSU?!

$446.60 PC is for entry level gaming PC with $500 limit.

$399 Radeon HD R9-290 is for uber gaming PC with GeForce 780.

My LAN party PC (with R9-290)'s PSU is Coolmaster GX 750 watts (white 80 plus rated) i.e. similar to http://pcpartpicker.com/part/cooler-master-power-supply-rs750acaad3us cost about $94.98 and it's compliant for NVIDIA SLI i.e. it has NVIDIA SLI logo on it.

will be waiting. Was thinking about buying a high end PC for maximal penis action, but have been waiting for "then and now" comparisons.

Really good and fair video that.

good unbiased video.

And you give console gamers a bad name, stop it.

TBH, I can't see the difference between entry-level PC and next-gen consoles.

Thats the point he was making. However, he also said that 3-4 years down the line, that entry level PC is going to really struggle.

the difference is the entry-level PC is actually more powerful. If you spend the time tweaking your settings your games will look just like they do on nextgen systems or better. Of course you still don't get console exclusives though but honestly that wont be a big deal till the end of 2014 beginning of 2015

I wouldn't call a HD 7770 more powerful than a PS4, Xbox One sure.

PS4's GCN > 7770.

There is no point in buying an entry level PC now as they will play games at PS4 quality. One should always go for 1100$ beast at the start of the gen and then probably in 3-4 years upgrade the gpu for 400+$. So in the end, the PC will cost you some 1500$ for the entire gen, but one will have a top notch gaming experience for 6-8 years.

Go big or go home.

well said

wait a minute we have sigs? I thought new gamespot got rid of it

@ronvalencia: I was referring to the 7870 build you posted. Didn't realize that was not the build in the video. Oops

Yep, even gifs too.

Good vid that tells it how it is. Simple and Straightforward.

Yes. Best available image quality.

good job showing the pros and cons of each platform in a very unbiased way

but your PC build is not good, its very unbalenced

i got a PC with a 7870 and about 2 times the processing power for only 360 dollars

Good video. Honest and to the point.

Always nice when my PC is considered better than their high end :D

They said high end pc is the best period period.

Least yours is working now. I'm getting pissed off at mine.

Interesting.

What was the method you used to reach this conclusion?

by being a fakeboy, he's made an equal number of threads/posts saying that PC graphics (star citizen) destroy PS4, as well as saying that the PS4 GPU is similar/close to a GTX titan/780ti/780 SLI/etc.

Why? What's wrong with it?

Not OC'ing correctly.

fakeboy science sounds pretty cool.

hard to say wich one is best. it really depends on what fanboy-goggles you wear.

WHy are you even bothering to overclock it? You JUST got it and it's a 780Ti, you shouldn't need to overclock it yet.

My CPU, not my GPU. This MSI board is proving to be a headache.

Terrible trolling all together,just stop posting

Indeed it does make your penis larger, I can confirm.

I actually agree with you but I usually do a 400+ upgrade every 3 years cause I am a graphics/performance whore

I actually had to undergo penis reduciton surgery, it was so god damned big.

I'm just glad you got the help you needed.
