Get a TCL 6 Series. It's beautiful for its price which is about $1k. The TV is capable of 120 Hz, so games above 60 fps on your PS5 will take advantage of that. Its comparable to even more expensive tvs.
Source: it's my TV lmao

I have a high end PC (7900xt) and a ps5. You’d have to fight me to try to take my ps5 from me.

I think you should consider selling the ps5 now while you can still get decent money for it. If you wait for the pro version (as someone else suggested) then this one will drop considerably in value. As you mentioned, most exclusives are coming to PC and there are so many options on PC (steam for example) where you can get the games at crazy cheap prices. IMO if you game on PC, there is no reason to own a console. I personally prefer consoles and play on a Series X but I also have and can play with my controllers on my PC if I wanted. Also, with Microsoft buying up all the gaming companies, I see Sony exclusives dwindling significantly.

What I learned from these kind of posts in the last year is in anything recreational, what matters is you being happy. You could argue that buying an original Xbox is better than PS5 today and actually have some valid points. There will always be someone with a counter argument with valid points too.
So unless you're asking something like "which gpu will render my premiere project faster" it all boils down to what makes you happy, you can just like the physical design of the console and go for it because of that.
If you don't want to read my rambling, in short, asking something like "do you think sony will release good exclusives every year" instead of this would greatly improve what we discuss here. Your question has been discussed many times, maybe check that posts.

You do you man. I have both a gaming pc and a ps5, and I daily drive my ps5 and hardly ever game on pc. I mostly use it to work.
But I like it better to play games on a console with a controller than on pc with mouse and keyboard (except for shooters, gender that I don’t really play that much).
But if you don’t really use it. You do you

I'd keep it. The console is a fantastic value product and will only improve in time with more decent exclusives. I also don't think it's worth selling unless you sell it privately for a decent price.
..but sell it when the PS5 pro comes out. If that console delivers on Sony's original promises, it'll be a game changer once again.

If I were in your shoes I’d keep it just to get that ps5 experience, But it all comes down to what you want, maybe you’ll sell it and upgrade your pc more, it depends on what you decide, and like you said the exclusives are coming to pc And depending on your pc might be higher in quality. PS I’m not a Xbox fanboy I enjoy PlayStation

It seems fairly easy to argue that "launch" is, by all accounts, the absolute worst time to own a console. For me, personally, it took about two-and-a-quarter years to see value in the PS3/360 generation and the PS4/X1 generation respectively. We're at the two-and-a-half mark for the PS5/XS gen, but I'm going to say that some of that time "doesn't count" due to one of those global crises whatchamacallits.
In other words, the machine is presumably just starting to take off.
That said, you've only mentioned AAA exclusives, which are going to be pretty few and far between (and fewer and farther as time goes on, as budgets expand). If you're not looking at obscure Japanese exclusives, or not getting any use out of PS+ or PS+E, or don't have any PS4-centred pals with whom you play online, there's nothing really that necessitates you having that device.
So you might as well just lock it in the closet till The Uncharted Last of War IIII comes out if that's something you wanna play in like a year or two, or give up on that sparse sprinkling of games and get rid of it, if you can still get a good price for it in this climate.

You do you! There's no point in childish tribalism about platforms, you've decided it's not what you need and that's that. I'm still using mine, since I have less time to game these days I'm still working through HFW with a few games queued behind, and now a few good psvr2 titles too. But I've owned pc, Xbox, switch, and it's all down to what suits your needs.

I should have mentioned that in my original post. Thanks for reminding me! :)
I'd like to get a really good TV to do the PS5 justice. I'm looking at 55" or 65" tops (it's not going in a big living room so this size should be perfect) and I'd like to stay around $1,200. I could go $1,600 if it's worth it, like its a really awesome TV.

Thank you! I used to be on team Xbox for many years but I eventually left for PS4 because I loved the exclusives namely, GoW 2018, Detroit, Bloodborne, Ghost of Tsushima. The latter two is one of the reasons why I'm a bit hesitant to sell my PS5 (that and Stranger of Paradise FF, but the epic exclusivity ends next month)
But while some of them have been decent, others have really been disappointing to me (Horizon FW and GoW R), and I'm in a bit of a strange spot rn

I had a ps5, but restly sold it because my main focus is pc also (I run a RTX 2060 super, 16GB ram and i5 9400F) I think Playstation is very expensive both regarding the consol, but also their games in general, now, yesterday I actually orded a ps5 again because it's not all games I'm interested in, my pc can run propely, but still I'm concidering canseling my order, because like I said, it's expensive.

I sold mine after a few months. I already had a Series X and a decent PC. I'd like to play the exclusives, but they didn't hook me enough to justify the price tag. (And Jim Ryan is a bellend.)

Reply to Steam deck buying decision by Elegant_Ocelot_9449
If you look at the Steam store it will let you know what games are "verified" "playable" or "unsupported." I've had success with every game I've tried to play except one. Which was labeled as "unsupported" so I should have known.
You can install windows on it, which it the beauty of the Steam Deck. I don't believe it's essential for anything except for a few specific games which have anti-cheat, which doesn't play nice with Valves compatibility layer.
You can even get the Epic games store and Ubisoft games running on it with some work arounds.
Best of luck to you, I love mine.

4k (or more), HDR and a refresh rate of 100hz or higher. Model wise, this is preference driven I think. For example, Samsung are nice but the vibrant mess of colour is too harsh in my opinion. I prefer the LGs. Just as good performance-wise but a little easier on the eyes of you are going to use it for TV watching too

The Demon's Souls remake was worth the price of the console alone. I have no doubt a Bloodborne remake is next and I'll be there day one lol.
