This RTX 4060 gaming PC just got a discount that makes it cheaper than an RTX 4080

Don't waste thousands of dollars on a graphics card. Grab this MSI RTX 4060 gaming PC deal instead so you can get a pre-built PC immediately.

il save you a click,.its $999

ps5pro for the win at $499 me thinks

Sgt_Slaughter44d ago

PS5 Pro doesn't exist yet, and what games are even coming out to warrant closing yourself off to PlayStation-only? Might as well spend the extra money and have a much more expansive ecosystem and a large back-log (along with a handful of PS exclusives that are on PC anyway).

purple10144d ago (Edited 44d ago )

Just GTA6, that one game alone, is enough

But il also enjoy ghost of tushima 2 with higher settings than base ps5

I agree with your points also though

anast44d ago

That expansive eco-system is rent only, unless you want to play old games on GoG.

JackBNimble44d ago

We don't even know when Gta6 is coming out, and are you really saying that the claim of better ray tracing and hopefully another 30 fps is worth justifying a pro?
You might as well build a PC, that way you can have full control of when and how you're going to upgrade.

The PS5 Pro may be half the price of this PC and more than twice the TF of a 15TF 4060.

Not to mention people have their whole game collection on PS5 including a fantastic subscription. And just like playing PS4 games is better on PS5 because they have more stable framerates and higher resolution. Virtually every single game this generation has used dynamic resolution scaling, those games will already benefit from PS5 Pro, PS5 Pro already has hundreds of games that will benefit. And future games will just have the "fidelity mode" unlocked for PS5 Pro. PS5 Pro will be extremely easy to develop for.

And GTA 6 is not going to be 30 FPS on the Pro, that is a lie, ir will 100% have graphics modes... it's not a Microsoft game....

The PS5 Pro is going to be the best deal in gaming #dealwithit.

@Einhander

Wouldn't the best deal be an Xbox Series S and Gamepass?

@anast GOG doesn’t just have old games anymore , though. Baldur’s Gate 3, for example, came out on GOG the same day as the Steam version, and it’s totally DRM free, unlike the PS5 version. Actually, the Steam version of BG3 is also DRM free and Steam has nearly 1200 DRM free games, not to mention that digital AND disc-based games alike *do* have DRM on PlayStation. You also have your online play and cloud saves locked behind a paid subscription while those things are totally free on Steam and every other platform on PC.

For the record, I’m both a PC & console gamer and I own a PS5, and both have their strengths and weaknesses, but you juvenile PS5 console fanboy trolls that proliferate in the comments section of this site are cringe AF. Especially because you clearly don’t understand how modern technology and game distribution works; DRM is something that affects ALL of us.

Einhander197244d ago (Edited 44d ago )

Anast is clearly talking about digital only on PC, disk games don't even exist on PC.

And your talking down to PlayStation owners, you seem angry that people like their consoles, and you did the thing that everyone does on the internet, oh I have a console so therefore my criticism is beyond reproach and I am better than you... And from my experience the majority of the time people say something like that they are lying.

GhostMirror44d ago

Right, so that’s your argument? I’m lying about having a PlayStation? 🙄 Believe whatever you want, dude. I’m not speaking down to PlayStation owners in general, just the fanboys trolls. and I said what I said to make a point. That’s the second time I’ve seen that same person troll a thread in an article that was about discount on a gaming PC and wasn’t talking about PlayStation at all by spewing some BS about only being able to rent games on PC. I detest PC master race nonsense just as much as console fanboy-ism, but nobody said anything negative about PlayStation here until the fanboys showed up and started instigating for no good reason. Maybe don’t dish it out if you can’t take it? Or—better yet—just get a life and don’t be a fanboy troll in the first place. This isn’t a sporting event; you don’t have to pick a side and cheerlead for it.

Skuletor44d ago

I have a bunch of PC games on disc

VincentVanBro44d ago

MSI uses off the shelf parts so they’re pretty alright. It’s a decent deal I guess.

mkis00744d ago

Just in case anyone cares. Costco currently has a 1600 pc build with a 4070 super and i7 14700f...ive priced it out and its actually cheaper to buy this than build it yourself by at least 200$

ocelot0743d ago

Anyone in the UK looking for something for 1080p/1440p and wants something with a upgrade path for the next few years.

Awd-it have this for £789.
Ryzen 7500f 6 core CPU
16gb ddr5
Rtx 4060

If you know how to build. You can build a very similar pc for same money. Maybe an little cheaper.

New and improved ASUS ROG Ally X battery life is just what it needs to compete with the Steam Deck

Yet another leak for the ASUS ROG Ally X points towards as much as 8 hours of battery, but how does that compare to the competition?

Vits3d ago

Honestly, I really like this updated version. But it doesn't solve the biggest flaw that the original had for me: the Z1 Extreme APU. Yes, it's an extremely powerful part, but it is not part of AMD's Adrenalin driver update program, so it's dependent on Asus for driver updates. And unfortunately, Asus doesn't have a stellar record of support for their devices.

Goodguy013d ago

Up to 8 hours basically just means the least demanding games. AAA gaming at highest wattage would probably be about 2-3 hours which is good compared to just about 1 hour with the current ally. The OLED Deck can do about 2-3hrs.

mrcatastropheAF1d 4h ago

With much less performance so that makes sense.

The Steamdeck shines at the lower TDP end but gets absolutely mopped at the high end.

Similar longevity with much better performance is a big win for the Ally X

Killa782d ago

Too bad Asus are all awful company.

PRIMORDUS1d 22h ago

They used to be the best when it comes to motherboards, now I will never buy anything from them again.

Firebird3601d 23h ago

8 hrs yea right. Running tetris?

Skuletor1d 22h ago

Only after setting the screen brightness to the lowest level, of course.

Notellin1d 6h ago

They tested the battery life watching a game of Tetris in 360p. Running Tetris natively brought the number down slightly to 1 hour and 38 minutes. 😂

Asuka1d 23h ago

Nope. The only improvements I want to hear is better customer support. Otherwise, I can't be bothered.

Name someone that isn't trying to look us these days maybe cdpr.

Take two, ubi and yes even PlayStation are pushing us to own nothing and be happy with our live service ad injected games on a sub so they can raise prices at will and take access away when they see fit.

If it keeps up I'll be a full time retro gamer and this industry will be crashing hard
