Can you upgrade a ps4 though?
>>
>>331131905
it's fine. Should play most games nicely at 1080p.

I bet you could build a much stronger system for the same money, but it's a good base to start with if you are feeling lazy.

You're thinking about the xbone. PS4 is the 1080p one.

that shit's comparable to my 5 years old, then 1100€ self-built PC, which still runs anything at 1920x1200, med-high settings, at steady framerates.

Seriously son, gb2 your console toys. Adults are talking.

No, the xbone is 720p.

The PS4 is the 800, 900p machine.
>>
>>331132719
A few games they downgraded the resolution just so it can match the xbone. Tho I believe microsoft paid some companies to do that.

But aside from that, there are way more examples where the ps4 version was 1080p while the xbone was just 900p.

med settings and what do you consider steady framerate? 30fps?
let's see how many games you'll be able to play in 2-3 years at your med settings and ''steady framerate''

>med settings and what do you consider steady framerate? 30fps?
depends on the game.
In shooters and fast action games, it's > 45, preferably over 60.

Metal Gear Solid 5, Killing Floor 2, Serious Sam 3... I have no problems keeping near-perfect 60fps with ~High settings.

and yes, this is with 1GB GTX 560ti from 2011.
>>
>>331133186
so not even 60 fps in most games
wow it sure is great bud
OP is better off adding extra money to get a 960 or if he does not have more money he can just get a ps4 as i said

here's a benchmark of 950,as you can see it gets 40fps in fallout 4,a game that looks like fucking ass

thats why you just upgrade the parts rather than get a whole new console when the next one is out in 2 years.

why.
>>
>>331133905
yeah op just go ahead and spend $600 on pc,on which you'll have to upgrade every single part.
that sure seems like a good idea
don't listen to those sony shills that try to give you good advice
>>
The 950 is shit, but it'll run most games at medium, 60.

My 750 TI still run well on low.
>>
>>331133375
>so not even 60 fps in most games
I can get well OVER 60fps in MOST PC games. Don't forget there's well over 20000 of them. Even in the current "gen" games, I can achieve 60fps with no issues if I drop down a setting or two, but I don't really stare at a framerate counter when I play.

Also both 950 and 960 are 128-bit GPUs. There's very minimal difference between those two, and you can easily overclock 950 to almost match the 960 specs-wise.

There's no fucking reason to get a console. It's just hilarious how you first boast about "m-muh 60fps!!!", but at the same time want to push OP to buy an overpriced toy that can barely get 30fps in most titles.

Also that "benchmark" looks fucking fine. 40fps is more than playable, especially in as horribly optimized game as FO4, and that guy's playing everything on High, everything enabled. Just drop some LOD settngs and Shadow quality, and he'd be rocking well over 60 in no time.

tl;dr: go away, Sony shill.
>>
>>331133375
>that benchmark
As someone who owns PS4 and Fallout 4 on it, those graphics and the performance look miles better than what I'm used to see. I didn't expect the difference to be quite this huge.
>>
>>331134236
holy shit how can you even be that stupid?
It runs fine NOW YOU RETARD,it wont be fine in two years or so
As I said OP is better off getting a 960 or if money is problem he's better off getting a ps4 and saving some money
>I can achieve 60fps with no issues if I drop down a setting or two
soon it's going to be more than a setting or two
it's like saying ''my 980ti runs everything at 100fps surely i won't have to upgrade in next 10 years but even then it will still do great'' it WON'T you fucking retard
>>
>>331131905
Where i live the GTX 950 is cheaper than the GTX 750Ti, for a card to replace the intel IGPU, is it good?
>>
>>331134060

yeah no one should ever buy a tesla because their 1998 honda civic works JUST FINE THANK YOU LOW MAINTENANCE THANK YOU

eat shit you impoverished peasant if you can afford to keep your PC up to date then you DESERVE a console

the domain of consoles is ever thus: children, poorfags, and idiots
>>
>>331134664
if the $600 is most OP can shell out at the moment he sure as hell can't keep up to date
if you've read what OP said you'd probably realise that
holy shit no wonder everyone calls people on /v/ retards

I got this one last year. as a gift

http://www.officedepot.com/a/products/174882/Dell-XPS-8700-Desktop-Computer-With/

What Graphic card would you guys recomend me to upgrade it? Sorry for asking for spoonfeed, i just suck at computers
>>
>>331131973

Only wise comment in the thread
>>
>>331134552
>It runs fine NOW YOU RETARD,it wont be fine in two years or so
uh huh? Say that to the people I know, who are still running GTX 550ti and Radeon HD 5770. We play games together all the time, and they got no issues getting the games to look and run well, at least better than on the consoles.

>As I said OP is better off getting a 960
No, he's not. It's 128-bit GPU, just like 950.
You either get 970 or even 770 instead, or just deal with the 950. It's a fine card.

Also you're forgetting that the overall evolution of game graphics and their system requirements have significantly slowed down in the past 7 years. Just 6 years ago, a PC made a decade earlier would've been horribly obsolete. Nowadays, however, you could be rocking the same early core2duos / quads and Nvidia 8800, and still get the job done decently.

>>331134580
Yes, it's good. 950 is around 30% stronger than 750ti, which already was demonstrated to run games like GTA5 at 1080p, Very High settings, at average of 35fps.
>>
>I play at 4k with my nvidia tnt2 with 512kb ram!

Yes, and we play VR games at 8k/720fps with the ps4
I don't even have a fucking ps4, but fucking hell
>>
>>331134894
>1GB DDR3 video memory promote lush, dynamic images.
What.
Those fake marketing terms never fail to surprise me.

Any low energy card like the GTX 960, AMD its not for you.
Why? its a prebuilt, shitty PSU.
>>
>>331134909
the obvious newfag Sony-shill in this thread.

>>331134805
there's very little need to upgrade that thing in the following few years. And when it becomes necessary, he'll merely need a 200$ GPU to expand the system's lifespan another 5 or so years.
>>
>>331135226

I don't have a ps4, any other fancy you may have?
>>
>>331132958
>le forced parity meme

nigga the ps4 is just trash overall. you have to be a fucking madman to spend £350 on a shitstation 4 if you can get a bone for £170 off amazon marketplace and most games are neck and neck, not because of le forced parity, because there is no 50% difference between the two.
>>
Fuck this thread I'm out
All of you saying OP should buy the PC I hope he listens to you,so we can have another thread in a month or two saying how he made a bad purchase
OP if you're still in this thread I said you're better off buying a 960 or just going for PS4,it's up to you to decide how you spend your money
Best of luck
>>
>>331135139

Thanks. May i ask if its possible to change the PSU?
>>
Anyone here has a Asus VS239H-P or Asus VS248H-P?

I need to select one for the build im about to finish.

>>331135343
Meanwhile it fits in the case, you shouldn't have a problem.
>>
OP, console, really.

I have a pc, for this reason alone I know it's not worth it to have an underpowered machine, you will want more graphics and more fps and even forget the fucking games.

Console, really.

You Sonyggers just mad that a 400$ PC can beat the shit out of your laughably bad, locked system.

Explain consolefags
What the fuck is with your argument "let's see in 2 years"? Like these faggots
>>331132564
>>331133894
In two years time, a PS5 comes out and you have to upgrade. All a PC gamer has to upgrade more than once every gen cycle is the graphics card, which is always comparable or cheaper in price to the PS4, which still has paid online. So what kind of argument is that? And even if I weren't to upgrade, you guys say "let's see you play games in 5 years". Well guess what, you won't be playing games on a PS4 in 5 years, too, unless we're talking downgraded versions. But if so, then I can just lower the settings on my PC and get exactly same result as your downgraded copy of a game.
>>
just wait til summer for 980 price to drop desu

Should i sell my DS and PS2 to finish building my PC?

>>331136282
Nigga you'll only get like 50 bucks for that tops

>>331136784

And that i live in a third world country doesnt help.

>>331136282
No. For starters, never ever sell your PS2!
Second, you won't get enough to upgrade jack shit.

Finally, you didn't even mention your specs.
>>
>DDR3 1600MHz 8G RAM

Don't the Skylake processors need DDR4? Even if they don't, you definitely want DDR4 memory. It's not really expensive.

>GTX 950

Don't buy this. You could buy a 960 for not much more, or wait until a 970/980 price drop happens. You could just buy the PC and put a GFX Card in later.

Otherwise it doesn't look too bad.

I5-4690K which already got.

212 EVO i got for $20.
HAF 912 i got for $25.
1TB WD Blue and a 240GB 850 EVO.
GTX 960 which i will get later on.
EVGA 500B.
And i still need money for the screen.

I had one similar to this my parents bought me, but an HP. Do you know how powerful the power supply is? Looks like it has a decent processor and RAM, I'd just get at least a 500w PS and then put any card in it you want. Otherwise something low power like this guy said if you won't put in a power supply >>331135139

However, i will check de 500w. What graphic card would you sudgest for it? Thanks
>>
>>331131905

GPU is weak, PSU is weak, make sure that Skylake is at least the 6500 series, that's super gimp ass slow ram for skylake arch
>>
>>331135071
if you only play games that arent modern youre gonna be fine with stuff like hd 5770 because those games tend to cap out at 1GB vram even if you have a lot more they just wont use any higher.
modern games like multiplats on xbone/ps4 will consume a lot more resources compared to games that were only on x360/ps3 to the point where those cards just shit themselves
OP stop being so underage and just get a console
