Sony just RAISED the price of the PlayStation 5 family, making console gaming less accessible to people on a budget. But don’t despair! We’re building a budget gaming PC using second-hand parts for less than the new PS5 Digital Edition price. Can this “Scrapyard Spirit” build beat the PS5’s performance, even with high RAM and SSD costs?

Sony hiking up their prices to normalize the ps6 price
The PS5 price increase just makes me think of that one scene from Rick and Morty where the president has a flashback of his whole life and he’s like “I want a PS5” yeah he’s sure getting that PS5 now
You hate the PS5 I get it
Why do you feel the need to tell us every few months
The God of war white graphics flickering was actually Nvidia drivers fault. Now they rolled out a new driver update that actually fixed that issue.
Must be good to have such an impressive used market. Whereas in my country, there's just dogshit.
"quick guys gta 6 is coming soon lets make the most money we can by increasing the price of the ps5."
17:36 "telling these fine folks about our-" WHATT!?!??
Sounds like Sony running out of money
Somebodys gonna poach riley away from Ltt
I thinkmthey are just testing for ps6 price hike
God of War Ragnorok flickering was an Nvidia driver issue that was just fixed in the newest driver update.
The pierced motherboard connector was hilarious!!!
The prices went up, so I just did another similar video as I do every month
13:45 also you got a machine that isn't only for gaming. important to highlight 🙂
DO NOT BUY THE THERMALTAKE SMART SERIES OF POWER SUPPLIES! They are extremely unstable and poorly built, I have owned three in the past and they all failed in very little time with reasonable use.
People compare pc to ps5 here and while yes the pc wins, what people also forget is what you can also do on that pc ypu cannot on a ps5. Work, internet browsing, gaming, editing, emulation. all in all you can literally do anything with settings or watch anythi g with no restrictions.
why the hell was the montage all in the wrong order lmao
What's never addressed about using the 2nd hand market is, how do you diagnose bad ram/cpu/motherboard/psu if that's all the parts available to you?
the light flickering texture issue you are having in god of war can be fixed by turning off nvidia reflex in game settings or updating to most recent nvidia driver which seems to have fixed it under patch notes.
I swear this is the fiftieth "second-hand hardware PC beats PS5" video in the last 6 years.
The biggest difference there is convenience
I don't want to fiddle with the box that does the games. I want to click the icon of the game and start playing
PCs will never have that convenience
The problem with trying to beat a console at the same (or lower) price is the reality that PC gaming is terrible even at mid-range price points. Not because the hardware isn't more powerful than a console, but because there's simply no way to optimize PC games. Every little version of a product, every brand of every version, and the multitude of performance options means that there might exist a single specific set of parts that gets the performance you can expect out of your hardware. And that is true for every game, as they might not have even considered a particular hardware configuration which (on paper) should be more than adequate, but in reality it barely runs at all.
The primary appeal of console continues to be that not only is the price more reasonable, but virtually every game is optimized for that specific hardware. Except Switch. That one's still bad.
500w for 3070 is crime
It's ̶M̶o̶o̶n̶ ̶C̶h̶i̶l̶d̶ Odoo Guy! You have the power to be his friend!
Is the pc outputting 4k tho? Ps5 is upscaled 4k.. i don’t think the 3070 can do it. You hiding the resolution speaks
Only Reily can come up with episodic ads and I'm here for it
Classic LTT video. Hate the world that drove these prices up, but a classic PC vs console video is nice
That Odoo theme song was THE PHUCKEN JAM BRO!!!!!🤟😝🤟
holy shit Alabaster Dawn mentioned, i always forget you're a Crosscode fan lol
17fps is bad
I think they're going to increase it and then gta 6 comes out 😂
500w is enough for 3070? im always under the impression that 70 version card would need at least 650w, especially 30 series card
ahhh yes the old "We take the new Price of the Console against used Pc Prices".
Sorry but you can get the PS5 for 300 and the Pro sometimes for 450.
