Building & testing a console-style gaming PC that can beat the new PlayStation 5 Pro.
Existing PS5 owners are looking skeptically at the new $700 upgrade, not sure if it’s worth their money. To get a real graphical upgrade over base model consoles in 2024, the PC remains the best option, however some console owners might need convincing that a gaming PC can really replace their Playstation. In this video, I’ve built a small console-style PC that can match or beat PS5 Pro performance, while offering even more enhanced graphical quality.
