Can you build a PC that can surpass the XBox One X for $499 or less?
Let's say you already have a 4k TV and a mouse/keyboard.
>>
I would say yes but it's always nice to invest in a PC because you can do so much more than just game on it.
>>
>>379931768
WOW. shows how bitch made you are. Lmao go get a dell fag.
>>
>>379930874
Yes except it wont really do 4k and that price doesnt include windows 10. We'll see how well xbox one x actually does with 4k. Getting 4k 60 on a pc is still a pricey venture so we'll see.
>>
>>379930874
Prices are bad right now and its a bit difficult to do a complete point by point response to the XboneX's SOC with its 8 core / 8 thread CPU and integrated graphics.

Still I think that its not that difficult to hit the mark that it sets, and it will be even easier to top its 8 thread jaguar / second gen GCN SOC setup once the Ryzen / Vega SOCs launch into the general market later this year.

Any true 4k ready GPU will cost more than that alone

>>
>>379930874
To meet the tech specs? It'd be difficult but comparable. Will it play 4k@60fps? Probably not.

Games on the console will be optimized for its hardware. It's harder to optimize for a platform that doesn't have static hardware.

Rx580 costs like 200 bucks. You can't unless you have modern office PC lying around, upgrade the PSU and put the RX580 in it.

Pentium G4560, 8GBs of RAM and a GTX 1060/RX 480. Generic mobo and case of whatever form factor you want it, a trusty PSU, a HDD/SSD/Both of your choice and you're ready to go.

I find it utterly ridiculous that they are pushing for 4k before pushing for constant 60fps
>>
>>379934002
Windows 10 doesn't cost a cent. You only need to pay if you want cosmetic customization features.

Get a 580, and a ryzen card, that would be like 500 alone but drop 300-400 more for the RAM/case/hard drive/psu/mobo and you'll have a PC that would shit all over a scorpio. PC gaming isn't cheap but it's worth it if you care about performance and graphics and the ability to upgrade whenever you feel like it.

This is probably as close as you can get to the individual bullet points.
The CPU is able to handle the same number of threads, but has significantly higher single thread performance and is a discrete component with many resources not available to the CPU cores in the Xbox SOC.
The GPU offers about the same level of performance, and has a similar amount of memory bandwidth dedicated to the graphics (Xbox one X dedicates a significant portion to Windows 10 S and other system requirements), but is several generations newer making an exact comparison difficult especially considering the Xbox is only capable of using the restricted DirectX console API and has no access to Vulkan.

A build that ignores things like the 8 thread requirement would probably manage to deliver similar performance for less.
The upcoming single CCX Ryzen + Vega SOC chips should basically be the general markets answer to the Scorpio SOC.

Nope. I remember the same discussions when the PS4 was released. You couldn't get the same performance out of an equal cost PC.
This makes sense because economies of scale and that console manufacturers don't have to make profits off individual components.
A year later and the PS4 was btfo.

Here is the thing with Console VS PC: Many times the visuals, draw distance, and effects are toned down for consoles, so on average a console will run most games to the equivalent of Medium settings for most games (depending on the port).

Question is, how many Xbox One games are going to support True 4K at 60 FPS? We know Forza 7 will, but how many titles will use checkerboard or upscale from another resolution to achieve that? I suspect that most titles on the Xbox One X will probably fall more into the "Upscaled 4K trying to achieve 30 FPS" way of doing things, especially with multiplayer focused titles.

With that said, yes, you can build a PC for that price and get 4K at around 30 FPS with settings at medium/high, which is what you will most likely get with the Xbox One X.

One thing I am hoping is we will get a lot more 1080p/60 FPS options that the PS4 Pro lacks, or at least more options from the developers to customize framerate and the Xbox One X being able to handle it.

I've build a $700 rig and resold is $500. I don't have spend extra HDDs + case and cooling, I could build a Ryzen+Volta build just by adding $200 so that's $700 in total, 80%-70% of it's value will be retained when I sell it after 2 years. You can't do that on a $499 console that only has a mobile APU while spending XBL fees every year and a hard $60 on every new game. You're retail store will laugh at you. I could probably sell XboneX+10 games for $300 after 2 years but I still would lose money on the XBL and hard $60 for every game. Consoles in general have shit resell value

>>379930874

Most likely not for a year or two.

The components of the console alone are much more expensive to produce than a GTX 1080 for example since it uses more silicon on the same process node and more of the same memory chips and in addition to that has bluray drive, HDD and a power supply. Microsoft is most likely selling it at a loss but then again NVIDIA could most likely sell GTX 1080s for $250 and still turn profit on them but they are too fucking jewish because there is no competition.

I'd personally still go with PC because if you have an existing PC with decent quad core CPU the $500 is better spent on a 1070 or 1080 because the retards at Microsoft went with the old Jaguar CPU which is pretty much going to prevent 60fps titles.

You've got to admit that what Valve have managed to do with their backing of Vulkan (an API made for the PC instead of a console) and the RadV driver (free of AMD's official driver teams incompetence) has been really impressive.

The best part is the Linux exclusive Vulkan version of Mad Max isn't even fully optimized yet, and the RadeonSI OpenGL support is already much better than the official AMD OpenGL driver.

>>379938983
This console SOC is still just Jaguar CPU cores with second gen GCN integrated graphics. Ryzen+Vega SOC parts are due later this year.

Unlike in the past AMD have even discussed the possibility of a high-end SOC with onboard HBM which while it would probably be more expensive than a typical SOC would likely still cost less than the traditional discrete CPU and GPU found in most gaming PCs today.

You can probably build something similar, but consoles will always be a bit cheaper since they order parts in bulk. They being said a PC is a better long term investment.

one thing i dont get is the library of games per pc and console. Moving up to a new console can either be non-backwards compatible or require you to constantly pay for the new system and rebuy the games at the new "remastered" full price. When it comes to PC however you could spend the same price tag updating your system as well as keep everything in your old library, mod support on most games will also remake old games to make them look like new. EXCLUDING EXCLUSIVES BY THE WAY. As well as 'oh its the same system but now with 4k!!!'
>Tl;Dr upgrading consoles seems more waste of money than upgrading pcs.
>>
>>379936946

Except the comparable GPU would be a 480, not a 470.
>>
>>379941373
>300mm^2+ chip

The Scorpio uses older and less efficient hardware designs.

Its not like there's anything magical about it being a 'console' we know AMD can produce reasonably priced gaming SOC hardware because they're already doing it albeit with outdated designs.

>interposer, HBM stack, main RAM, motherboard, PSU, case, hardrive etc. could be sold for $499 this year.

Well the Scorpio omits the HBM to just use shared memory so that's an obvious place to save money. There's also the possibility that with enough HBM the system could be made to just use it which would make the SOC cost more, but would save complexity in the build and another discrete component.
>>
>>379936020
How do you get it for free legally? When i look its $99
>>
>>379942632
If you do the math the IGP in the SOC is very similar on paper to the 470 right down to the amount of memory and bandwidth available for graphics. Though to be fair the 470/570 are just barely cut down versions of the 480/580.
Though obviously the IGP is still second-gen GCN and lacking many of the improvements from the last few years.

You'd pay for a key, the ISO is located at Microsoft's page and you can get it for free.

In any case though..
>Paying for Windows on 2017
>>
>>379942784
Windows 10 S, which is practically what the Scorpio uses will be available for $0. Microsoft plans to make money off of it through advertising and sales of UWP software through the Windows Store which is all 10 S will be capable of running.

GNU/Linux distros are also $0, don't include advertising software, and have far more games available through Steam than are available to 10 S through the Windows Store.
>>
>>379930874
Short answer: NO.
>>
>>379942784
You download the ISO from Microsoft and install it. Both Pro and Home versions can be installed and used for an unlimited period of time without CD key and without activation, I'm not sure about more advanced versions.

Windows 10 DOES NOT REQUIRE CD key or activation.

That build isn't well optimized for 2160p or gaming in general going forward.
If you're going to spend $200+ on a CPU today you really want at least 6 cores / 12 threads, being permanently locked to 4 threads isn't a good option today.
Plus the CPU bottleneck on performance doesn't scale up linearly as resolution increases so for 2160p gaming your GPU is more important.

>>379946029
>Games don't even use 4 cores
Already false today, even more false going forward as more games switch to using modern graphics APIs.

Plus even if that's true you'll be better off running the game restricted to a single 6 thread CCX with the second CCX dedicated to the system and any other tasks you might have your system performing than facing the problems caused by using a neutered CPU only capable of handling half the threads supported even by the low end chips in a last-gen console.
