Pc gamers are patient tho, a ps5 is only an option if you are anxious af and can't wait a few years to play games. Also, performance isn't great on consoles either, once it's fixed a medium tier pc will outperform both, and the games made by sony on pc right now like Horizon Zero Dawn are prettier and runs better than what a ps5/ps4 can deliver right now.

All upcoming ps games are not coming to ps4 anymore. Ps4s are not being sold anymore and can barely run the latest games. All the best ps5 games are not on pc and its looking like it will be years for them to arrive to pc, and they are usually badly optimized. The new hogwarts legacy is just one example of the ps5 and xbox outperforming PCs that cost thousands of dollars

I don't think the PS5 is worth it. At is stands now, a PS5 is just an glorified PS4 and all the good games are on pc as well, and the ones who aren't on pc yet, will come out eventually. Your pc isn't bad either, you just need to replace your cpu. A simple Ryzen 5 5600 would do wonders on your performance, a new motherboard and a Ryzen 5 5600 are cheaper than a ps5 and you could play the game just fine.

Reply to does anyone keep having loud fans on their series x? by Mikolaj_Kol

Just get a can of air and blow it through the fan vents if your not confident in your abilities to dismantle and clean it or take it to someone else to clean if you want a professional opinion on the fan i just use cans of compressed air and get a tube funnel just blow through the fan vents and should remove the dust

I would upgrade the PC, looks like you should upgrade the CPU soon

I don’t think the ps5 is worth it since the exclusives come to pc anyways and the xbox is cheaper, more available and the better console

Most PS exclusives are either on Steam or coming to Steam. For the price of a PS5 you could buy a GPU (like a used 3080) which would outperform it. Don’t get the PS5.

Edit: looking at your setup, your GPU isn’t an issue. Your CPU is EXTREMELY old/slow and will be bottling the card massively in most games, not just HL. You need a new CPU.

Reply to comment by Nathan-David-Haslett in Hey folks, I recently got my first console (xbox series s), and I love FPS games. I am finding it hard to aim in FPS games using the controller, any tips for me to know to get the hang of it? Thanks. a by Vignesh_srstan

This. I had some of the grips that go over the top of the thumb sticks a few years back. The taller stick means the response is a little better. Defo worth trying for the small amount they cost.

GTX 1080 is an old card and current games require newer RTX graphics cards to have parity with the console versions. If you don't want to upgrade to a modern graphics card then PS5 or Xbox Series X or S are right for you.
