@sailor232: I had them crossfired as well. It's pretty much the same performance as a stock 7970.
The 7970 in a PC paired with a budget dual core i3 processor stomps all over the PS4's low-powered laptop grade APU. Consoles are designed for quiet, low-power consuming operation and could never compete with the discrete graphics cards and desktop CPU's of even three years ago.

But we still see threads like these, sigh, will be funnier in a few years when the same threads open up.
Going to assume a single 7850 is better than my 460 SLI setup (overclocked), but I'm content on being pretty close to PS4 hardware, especially since my hardware is now four years old. Since I'll be upgrading in the near future, it won't even be a contest. I have no qualms about upgrading my hardware every three to four years.
I knew just by reading the title the replies would be hilarious and I wasn't disappointed:) I support Sony but cmon TC:P We can't compete graphically because our systems are $400 compared to $1000 plus for High End PCS.
We buy the PS4 for the exclusives that PC owners know they wish they could have eg: Red dead Redemption not coming to PC was a big issue for some.
Of course you can play every single console game on the PC but that isn't legal and should not be supported.
Last I heard, there were about 75 million PS3 units sold. So far, there's been 7 million PS4 units sold. Assuming a best-case scenario where all PS4 owners would be former PS3 owners, that would mean only 9.3% are PS4 owners, leaving 90.7% still on the PS3.
A gaming PC is a PC that's been BUILT for gaming, these monsters crush PS4, and just because a casual PC gamer plays a few games on an OEM PC does not make it a gaming PC.
That's why these STEAM survey threads self own the TC every time as they include casual OEM PC's, Lets do an average shall we, there's more cows with a PS3 then with a PS4 so the average PC gamer has a rig that many times faster then what the average cow has.
So what? That doesn't change the fact that any of the 15 percent that wanted to become moderate to elite PC enthusiasts can do so at any time they choose. 100 percent of PS4 owners CANNOT.
I would say "nice try" but this topic is as moronic as people saying Uncharted 4 looks better than any PC game. This shit is silly even by cow standards, which at times can be pretty low.
Sorry if this was said before but this is only a current assessment. From now till the end of the 8th generation, people can upgrade their PC's however much they want while PS4 remains the same.

Yep, pretty much. I'm a console gamer, and I find the fanboys of MS and Sony laughable with these assumptions.
i have a store bought pc with an integrated video card.. is my pc good? i got it from best buy for like 1k three years ago with a monitor and keyboard and no speakers what the ****
are any of these pc's more powerful than the ps4? http://www.bestbuy.com/site/desktop-computers/towers-only/pcmcat212600050008.c?id=pcmcat212600050008

Master Race? More like Extinct Race. Their having fun with the Dodo who could not evolve like Hermits.
....That...Doesn't even make sense...
You do know that "hermits" are not distinct creatures, right? And the Dodo didn't die off because it couldn't evolve (that's not how evolution works), it was hunted to extinction by man.
Dumb argument, then cows act like they're too good for graphics wars if the herms bring it up, Of all the things to come at the herms with, it's a low end AMD apu with a below mid range GPU init,
PC gaming doesn't exclude people with low specs. It's gaming for all. None of this will change the fact that the PS4 is low end.
Anything at the APU stage becomes more and more mobile year in and year out. Cows, you're going to be competing with the iPad in a couple of years.

Gaming first and foremost is about the game play. Why you guys get so hung up on tech is beyond me.
ITT: Super cool PC gamers show off their awesome specs for a system that somehow barely cost them more than ten bucks. It's amazing what you can get when you have them sick trade skillz that many people on here seem to possess.

lol so what's with all the tech and graphics threads from the cows who do it more than anyone else?
Herms don't even argue graphics and tech most of the time, they just put an end to threads like these. This isn't much of an argument, it's TC embarrassing the cows.

15% of 75 million = 11.25 million PC's better than a PS4
11.25 MILLION!

Wow that really change everything...lol
There are GPU there that outpower the PS4 which are as old as 2010 2011 from 2 different brand of cards,and both combined have only 11.25 million cards that are more powerful than the PS4.?
11.24 Divided by 4 years = 2.81 million per year,basically even the xbox one has a way higher adoption rate than strong GPU on PC,most people don't go for the ultra powerful they just go for the average or low end and is proven by steam stats.

What's your premise in dividing 11.24 by four years? Why four years? What's your reasoning for it?

That maths makes no sense.
Oh it sure does..
There are 11.24 million people with stronger GPU than the PS4 on PC,even that GPU stronger than the PS4 exist as far as 2010,so basically even that GPU that are stronger than PS4 GPU are available since 2010,only 11 million people own 1 that is some low ass sh** adoption rate and basically prove that strong GPU adoption on PC is ultra slow the PS4 should pass that number without problem this year and by next will have a higher adoption rate than PC with stronger GPU,basically those with strong GPU on PC are a minority.

Adoption rates..
Few people own a stronger than PS4 GPU even that they have been available since 2010 and way before the PS4 was out,people with strong GPU on PC are a minority.
