Deutschland: Chatverläufe um Fördergeldaffäre im FDP-Miniserium werfen Fragen auf
  • Es stimmt. Wissenschaft ist nicht unpolitisch, aber sie muss frei von politischer Einflussnahme sein. Angenommen ein Geschichtswissenschaftler betreibt geförderte Forschung in Sachen Holocaust-Leugnung. Dem gehört erst die Förderung und sofort darauf der Arbeitsvertrag entzogen. Hier sieht das für die Ministerin allerdings ganz unvorteilhaft aus. Leider wird Solidarität mit Palästina und/oder Kritik an Israel zu oft pauschal als Antisemitismus gebrandmarkt. Das hat sie hier wohl versucht, politisch zu nutzen.

  • It's official: consoles cost as much as gaming PCs now
  • Anivia on the other hand was only saying that for the same money or less as a Playstation 5 Pro, you can get more performance by spending your dollars on a computer instead of a console. This is correct.

    I'd like to argue that you can't get as much or more performance by spending the 700 dollars on a gaming PC. I'd be glad to be proven wrong when the first PS 5 Pro benchmarks are published, however.

  • What are you taking about? Your barebones configuration is a hundred dollars more than the standard PS5 years after its initial release. The PS 5 Pro (subject of your link) promises significantly more power than the original model and costs significantly more. You cannot compare that to your bare bones gaming PC. A gaming PC that promises way more bang than your 5600+6600 combo is significantly more expensive than the PS5 Pro.

    Your hastily assembled list will maybe do 1080p60 in more recent games, severely limited by the GPU and its 8GB of VRAM. That was good when I got my 430 EUR Vega 56 back in 2017. Today? Not so great.

  • You're right, a 4090 costs 2-3 consoles.

    Let's assume the 3060 costs 180 Dollars (no idea what those go for). Add 150 for a decent CPU, 40 for 16 GB of memory. Another 80 for a Mainboard for a total of 180+150+40+80=450 USD. You also need a case, a power supply and mass storage. Your math doesn't check out, even with the humble specs those Dollars will buy you.

    I'm not trying to sell you a console here, far from it. I'm just saying if you want a rig that outperforms a console, it will be in the 4-digits. A mid range GPU alone will be 400-500 nowadays.
