Convince me to sell my PS4 Pro and make the switch to PC Gaming

I know that Jow Forums isn't fond of vidya gaems - but I'm not getting any responses on /v/ over this, so here I go:

>Graphics are good enough (I have a 50 inch 4k TV)
>Library includes all of the exclusive and third party games I love
>Plug and play, easy to use, stable - not as many crashing/technical issues and bugs in games along with the OS.
>Not nearly as much configuration and googling to fix technical issues, crashes, and getting games to work with a controller (especially older titles)
>Flash sales, while admittedly doesn't have quite as low prices as steam - are viable alternatives - I don't even buy a fuckton of games anyway.
>For times where I want to play older, less graphically intensive games (PC or on Emulators) - I got my mid-end intel latitude and hand me down 2014 MacBook Air (i7) (both with shitty intel HD 4000 integrated gfx) laptops for that
>I'm looking to move forward in my IT career as a data entry specialist, probably looking into coding later on - again - my laptops should do fine.

Is there any reason I should get rid of my PS4 Pro and build a gaming PC sooner or later? I'm budget conscious - so I just don't see the point: seems like I'm just throwing money down the drain.

Prove me wrong.

Don't. Keep your ps4, and never visit ever again.

No one cares what you use or about your gaymes

You can make PCs look cool. You can't really do anything to make a console look cool like you can a PC. inb4 some ugly fat neckbeard says "hurr durr go back to /v" or something similar.

nobody cares what you use, if you game with friends just use whatever they do. Otherwise do whatever is easiest.

why not just both poorfag

PS5 is coming out in 9months?

I wouldn't convince you to sell your PS4 Pro. PS4 has plenty enough good exclusives making it worthwhile to buy. But I do recommend getting a PC capable of playing (modern) video games for the third parties, older games and PC exclusives.

The Playstation controller is the best! Gamer PC rigs are starting to look ridiculous.

This. /Thread

everything you listed except RGBs are good points, so why did you put >muh in front of it?

is this ironic or are you actually asking? I don't want to waste my time if it's all for nothing

Yes but make sure you get high precision ram if you're gonna play an fps.

Here you go

>Graphics are on low and I couldn't improve them if I wanted to, I get what my masters give me
>I pay subscription to be allowed to play the games Sony holds to ransom
>I am not allowed to chose my os or anything really so I can't break anything
>I am not allowed to configure anything to my best liking

The worst part about consoles is that they are a parasite between the developer and the player. Sony itself offers nothing other than holding Bloodborne to ransom.
And with that come the problems

- the game will die with the platform. You won't be able to replay it on PS5 or 6 in the future
- you won;'t be able to play it in 4k with ultra graphics as you would on a modern PC
- no mods for the games that support mods
- no mouse for your shooters
And the list goes on.

Why sell and only get $200 pocket change?

Sell your ps4. Buy a used thinkpad. Install Arch. Learn to program. Get a good job. Become a smarter person. Improve your life. Gayming is and will always be a dead end.

I never had an issue with pc games cracking or having to fix them even with cracked ones. My parts were cheaper than if I got a console and the online is free because well it should be. The framerates higher and mouse and keyboard are more accurate I just have a xbox one for some exclusives or if I get the games dirt cheap at some stores.

Don’t sell it. Why would you want to spend $2000+?
Just connect it to your monitor. It’s what I do.

no, user. if it works and you like it why would I care? besides everyone who's not an autistic 14 year old at heart knows consoles are just fine to play games on like who the hell cares.

>just fine to play games on like who the hell cares.
They are.

Except every penny given to the evil corporation is a penny supporting it's existence so they could release a new deneration of devices and hol a new generation of games to ransom.

they basically deny you choice and options offering you worse conditions.
And you gladly pay so they would continue doing it to you.

Been PC gaming for 22 years. Convince me to waste my time convincing you to switch.

Just before someone replies to this seriously, this guy has been creating the same thread with the same image for weeks on /v/. Either he's just a faggot or he is a shill for a console company (my bet)

Shove your video games up your ass.

>mods
>kb+m support
>better graphics and framerates
>PC exclusives
>free online play

If none of these matter to you, there's no point in having a gaming PC.
Personally, none of these matter to me at this point in my life, so I haven't had a gaming PC since 2009 and just game on a PS4 now.

Build a PC and keep the PS4 for Red Dead Redemption 2

fpbp

Install Gentoo and fuck off

Get a job instead, goes a lot farther

for me the selling point has always been scalability. eventually hardware will be outpaced by the complexity of software and you will need to upgrade. do you want to keep buying systems or eventually just need to only buy a gpu or a cpu?
however gpu and cpu pricies have exploded in the last decade so what the fuck do I know

>Graphics are good enough (I have a 50 inch 4k TV)

go to your local best buy or tech shop where they have a gaming pc demo and see if you like it. Or if any of your friends have a gaming pc, go to their house.

>Libary includes all of the exclusive and third party games I love

There's also exclusives on pc like Dota 2, Civilization 5, Space engineers, Arma, Rust, etc. But ps4 exclusives are good tho.

>Plug and play, easy to use, stable - not as many crashing/technical issues and bugs in games along with the OS.

Pc building is not as hard as you may think, but does sometimes require troubleshooting and work, so i understand that

>Not nearly as much configuration and googling to fix technical issues, crashes, and getting games to work with a controller (especially older titles)

You might ditch the controller once you get into pc gaming, but it does require configuration and googling

>Flash sales, while admittedly doesn't have quite as low prices as steam - are viable alternatives - I don't even buy a fuckton of games anyway.

ok, you could save some bucks tho

>For times where I want to play older, less graphically intensive games (PC or on Emulators) - I got my mid-end intel latitude and hand me down 2014 MacBook Air (i7) (both with shitty intel HD 4000 integrated gfx) laptops for that

You can also put mods on those old games to make them look better.

>I'm looking to move forward in my IT career as a data entry specialist, probably looking into coding later on - again - my laptops should do fine.

I guess so, but dedicated gpu is good for cuda

>budget concious

you can build a gaming pc as low as $400

no one cares about your fucking gayming, go to /v/ and kiss boys faggot

you should make the switch to not playing any video games

Except for RGB, all of these are legitimate points and you have offered no refutation.
>b-but muh Linux gayming
The PS4 OS is FreeBSD.

Wait until the ps5. The components will be cheaper

I got 32MB/s while downloading porn today. Definitely can't get those speeds with the ps4

don’t listen to any of these Jow Forums incels, the real answer is that pc gayming is a scam and anything computer related is fucking gay as shit, just keep your pro and play some good games without having to fuck around with motherboards and drivers and shit like a fucking nerd

This.
Also stop with the Sega mentality and play everything you want to play you stupid troglodyte.

dude you're getting a dell

get one of pic related, use gamestream & keep your hardware related while benefitting from steam sales, being able to use kb & mouse or just a controller at will

hack your ps4 for free exclusive games and use the PC for everything else

This.
Fuck off back to /v/ faggot OP.

>being able to shitpost on /v/ about how superior you are for playing on PC

think motherfucker

>Convince me to sell my PS4 Pro
you're gonna end up spending at least 3x the cost of the PS4 for the same graphics since consoles are optimized and PC ports are trash.
