    My $1000 home built machine from 10 years ago can run circles around the XBox One so I respectfully disagree.

    That’s with an AMD FX-8150 and 16 GB or Ram and a standard Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 Ti running on an 8 year old Samsung solidstate.

      Bro, why do you have to be like that? Now I got to call you out.

      Your pc is probably great for how you use it, but it is not great at competing with newer tech.

      I hate to use t flops as a benchmark but I think in this case it can help put things in perspective.

      For those who don’t know Tflops is essentially the computational power of the hardware.

      I couldn’t find tflop info on your cpu, but your GPU gets about 2.1 Tflops.

      The original Xbox 1 gets 6 tflops. I’ll be nice and say with your entire system and say you get 4-5 tflops.

      And the ps5 gets 10.28 tflops.(but that’s because of some insane engineering)

      There is no way a FX series cpu paired with a 1050ti could do better then a Ryzen/Radeon custom cpu/GPU mobo. The only thing faster in your pc over the original Xbox 1 is your RAM.

        Tflops is floating point math genius, and the FX-8150 gets around 8 of 'em so it’s handling a huge chunk of it and offloading a lot of the finer details to the graphics card. Not even mentioning the added instruction sets. The Ryzen is handling both cause all the graphics is being run through the processor instead of through a card. So it’s doing double duty. And yeah, ram makes up for a lot. There’s also separate ram on the card so in addition the the 16 gigs of ram on board the mobo, there’s 4 more gigs on the graphics board. Not to mention the vram running off the solid state. So I will happily put my 10+ year old machine right up against any and all the consoles and it will kick every one of their asses.

        I said I respectfully disagree but you wanted to take it to the floor.

        Edit: here’s a spec sheet including the tflops on the Xbox one, one s, and one x.

        Edit2edit: wrong GPU. Still, 2.1 beats the shit out of Xbox 1 and 1S at 2.1, and that’s without the processor doing all the heavy lifting.
