Poll Should i build a Volta PC? Is 60hz and a few more games worth it? (33 votes)
I have a X1X, PS4 Pro, and Switch hooked up to my 65" 4K OLED + Atmos 5.1.4 Home Theater. If i build a PC it's going to be connected to this same 60hz OLED, I'm not going to get a LCD Gaming Monitor for my PC.. I prefer 60hz OLED over 120-144hz LCD. I'm a junky for HDR, Atmos, and my 18" Subwoofer.
Most of the games i like for PC, are available for my X1X.
For $380 dollars my X1X has served me and my family of 4 as a 4k HDR Gaming Machine, 4k HDR+Atmos Bluray player, and a great place for 4k HDR Streaming Apps like Netflix, Amazon, HBO, Plex and more. Only negative being no Dolby Vision support as of yet.
For the PC Build I'd want Windows 10 Gamer Edition, CPU, GPU, 16GB GDDR4 RAM, SSD, SSHD, and AIO Water Cooler. I already have a case and a PSU. I don't love my case design but the case is huge and hides inside my AV Cabinet nicely, and since it's huge it's easy for the PC to stay cool while being overclocked in my AV Cabinet. That spot in my AV Cabinet is begging for use, but it would be $1300-1400? $1300-1400 for higher refresh rates and some new games. HDR and Atmos is more important to me than the higher refresh rates, but i could still buy PC versions of games when a X1X game doesn't have HDR or Atmos.
