Gaming Vs Console Research Paper
In the 21st century, gaming has taken over the world and has become one of the most popular time passers. One thing that has been making people’s minds go wild is the decision to play games on the computer or on the console. I have to say that gaming PC’s are the better way to go because of its many advantages they have over the consoles. First of all, gaming PC’s can play some of the games that consoles have. Most of the games even have better graphics on the computer than on the console. An example of this is Skyrim, one of the most popular games of all time. Another good thing about having a gaming PC instead of a console is the amount of power a PC has. The Falcon Northwest Tiki, for example, is one of the fastest running gaming desktops
of all time. It has an NVIDIA Titan X processor, one of the most powerful graphics processors in gaming history, sixteen gigabytes of RAM, six-thousand-four-hundred gigabytes of storage, and a processor speed of 4.6 gigahertz (PCMag, 2015). It can also play at sixty frames per second in four-thousand pixels without causing lag. According to Techno Buffalo, the 1TB version of the PS4 has eight gigabytes of RAM, one terabyte of storage, a processor speed of 2.1 gigahertz (Russel, 2013). It can only run a few games on sixty frames per second and 1080p high definition. Some say that gaming PC’s have a downside of being hard to bring anywhere and that consoles can be easily placed in bags. I partially agree with that because computers, in general, aren’t easily transferred from one place to another. But, there are also gaming laptops which are just a bit bigger and bulkier than those used for business. They work nearly as fast as the PC’s and are easy to bring anywhere. They are also easier to bring than most consoles due to its famous book-like fold. Another downside is the price of the PC’s. The Falcon Northwest Tiki has a US street price of a whopping five-thousand-twenty-seven dollars (PCMag, 2015). I partially agree to this because many computers cost much less than that. I also disagree to this because most consoles also have one flaw: you have to buy a different console every now and then. A good example of this is the Playstation. If you plan to buy all of the generations to play all of the games exclusive to each console, it would soon cost more than the Falcon Northwest Tiki. Adding to that, you still have to buy the games which cost one thousand pesos or more. The gaming PC has truly changed drastically over the past decade. It has slowly but surely overtaken the consoles due to its continuous evolution. Thanks to the information I have collected, I guess it is safe enough to say that gaming PC’s are the true master race.
