Hi,

Anyone who is a core seller and knows when can we expect the stock on some RTX 3070 or 3080 with more right prices rather than inflated ones. Even 3060Ti or 3060 is selling ridiculously high and above average budget gaming pc is impossible to make.

A PS5 is approximatly the performance of a 2070 super (comparison avaliable on request)
At 50k you get a 16 core cpu,a RTX 2070 supper gpu, 16GB of DDR6 RAM, 1TB NVME gen4 storage, a cabinet, a powersupply and a fantastic controller, and Sony doesnot even charge extra for assembly :)
Sure there is no room for a hardware upgrade bsides the actual available 600GB storage. Even the games are upto 30 % more expensive.
But it's just a very small price to pay and that too spread over a period of time (as and when you buy these games)
Given the state of things either you wait till May for the craze to colapse or get your hands on a PS5 (if you can) :)

I agree but i struggle with console Field of View and I play more competitive PVP games. console is good for casual gaming i would say.

Imagine playing with a controller, it's like choosing to be handicapped because you're bored with not being one.

Anyway, OP, I'm in the same boat as you. Planned to purchase the 3060 ti myself but obviously sanity needs to restored in GPU world. I don't think it will for this whole year though.

You're not adding the costs of online subscription services to the console over the years. Also a console is NOT a PC. The person using it would only be able to game on it and would perhaps spend another 30-50K on a PC for his daily tasks other than gaming.
Also the 16GB DDR6 RAM is not actually all just RAM. It's a shared pool (of RAM + vRAM).
Finally the storage upgrade costs would be a lot to add on. Games these days are easily 100+GB on average. Don't forget COD 250GB xD
