Ask HN: Are high GPU prices driving a spike in console sales?
- richardjam73 4y agoIt depends on the application. Are you aware that there are a lot of different types of gamers? If a gamer wants to play those specific AAA games that are heavy on requirements then considering a console might be something they do. If however they don't really want those games then a PC with a less capable GPU is all they need. I have never seen actual statistics that show the differences in spending power of these groups. These are the recommended Nvidia GPU for some very popular PC games Call of Duty MW 2 GTX 1060 Battlefield 2042 RTX 3060 World of Warcraft RTX with 8GB Fifa 23 GTX 1660 Sims 4 GTX 650 Minecraft Java (Microsoft doesn't specifiy) ~ 700 series Elden Ring GTX 1070 8GB Fortnite GTX 960 Apex Legends GTX 970 Grand Theft Auto V GTX 660 2GB
