@Granadico Interesting! But if you take a look at the God of War 3 Remastered comparison video on the page, I'm really struggling to see how they could pull that off with the current camera!
@MarvinEternus117 Wow, that update passed me by. I've updated the results. PTL's lead is reduced but it's still a touch faster running on the PS5-equivalent settings. Thanks for the heads-up!
@themightyant Hi there, these were GPU tests run on a high-end system (and the coverage isn't talking about anything other than GPU performance vs Pro) but ultimately we are completely GPU-limited in all scenarios there.
I also wasn't making pricing comparisons but with that said, a £699 cost would not be a realistic comparison IMHO. PC games are generally cheaper than console games. You don't pay a subscription for multiplayer features. You get free games regardless from the Epic Game Store. So the value calculation is tricky.

Re: Review: Avowed PS5 - Pro Features Are Thin On The Ground But The Port Is Solid
@mombe2 Owing to the nature of dynamic resolution scaling, it's just a few frames over the target: 30fps, 40fps, 60fps etc.

Re: Yes, It's Still Possible To Build A Good Value Gaming PC
@Spodlude Amazing deal while it lasted!!
Re: Yes, It's Still Possible To Build A Good Value Gaming PC
@Claw Yes, depending on the game, no problem.
Re: Yes, It's Still Possible To Build A Good Value Gaming PC
@themightyant The GPU reviews embedded on the page should help out a bit with that!
Re: Intel Panther Lake: Mobile Graphics, Entry-Level Desktop Performance
@bespokePoster Thanks for that, I made a tweak.

@DeathElevenTeen Haha this one was actually my idea.

With all of that in mind, Microcentre selling a 7500X3D system with a 9060XT 16GB for $999 represents higher performance and in time higher "value" than a console: https://videocardz.com/newz/microcenter-is-already-selling-ryzen-5-7500x3d-gaming-pc-100-cheaper-than-7600x3d-system
Not that you'd be able to run your PS5 library on it, of course, which is another real world confounding factor in such comparisons.
