@Desiderata, 9900k, RTX 2080Ti FTW3, Gigabyte Aorus Master, 280mm Corsair AIO, 64GB G.skill 3600mhz RAM, 850 watt 80+ gold psu, 2TB Samsung 970 pro, 8tb WD Red NAS 7200 rpm, ASUS Blu ray player (yes I know a disk drive in 2020), cooler master mc500 case. With everything new it came out around $4000. Now that it’s used it’s not worth that much. My monitor is a 27” predator XB1 1440p 144Hz

Basically FLOPS are theoretical performance markers based on core count, core speed, and frequency. To put it as simple as possible, core count trumps speeds 90% of the time, so yes the xbox with 40% more cores wins even if its 25% lower frequency. To put it even simpler, the XBSX *should* be able to play at 60fps 4k with Ray tracing. The PS5 may struggle with ray tracing but should still be able to achieve 60fps at 4k. Both give you 4k gaming at a price you cannot do with a computer. My PC as it sits costs maybe 3k, and I put about 6k into it and it doesn’t even have RTX capability until I upgrade the GPU

@Foreskin Ripper, not over the lifetime, as it sits and what the parts cost new at the time I bought them. Prices have gone down drastically. I have an 8700k, Zotac 1080Ti AMP! Extreme, 32GB Corsairs Dominator Platinum RGB, and Asus ROG Maximus Formula X. All that was almost $2k with tax. Then I have a Samsung 970 Pro 1TB, 960 Pro 1TB and 850 Pro 512GB. I paid about $1,500 for those new. A corsair 750D case, H115i Extreme cooler, 5 LL 140’s with a hub and NZXT USB expansion. Thats another $500. A Seasonic Prime Titanium 850W PSU $200. And then if you count monitors I have a $1200 Acer X34 and $800 Acer XB271HK 27” 4k G-Sync monitor. And that’s all about 6k with tax not including about $500 worth of peripherals. For reference you can get a 500GB M.2 for like $100 now

PC Gamer here. Listen, doesn't matter the specs and whatnot on your consoles. It should be able to turn on and play well enough to keep up with others online. If it's brand new and can't do that, screw em. They don't deserve you. You're always welcomed into PC Gamerland, and they all love helping others set up a new gaming PC to play.

Terraflops stands are thousands of floating point operations per second. It's basicly a measurement of the GPU's potential performance. Higher terraflops means games can probably be played at higher quality and/or higher frame rates. Now if the game is terribly un-optimized on one system you will see a performance hit, which would reduce quality and/or FPS
I'm an xbox gamer and I have no idea what they are either....BUT I do know my console has more flops and CUs than your dumb console
