> The nvidia GTX770, undoubtedly a higher performance card, not only costs almost as much as a PS4, alone it consumes significantly more power than the PS4.

I don't care if it costs more. It's available. Hardware better than the PS4 in consoles is NOT. That's the whole point. If I want to have better hardware than the PS4, I'll have to wait another 10 years for another console cycle to come. No way. In 2 years time the PS4 and XBoxone will be extremely weak even compared with low-end PC gaming rigs.

And you bet I'll want a high performing card (no matter what it costs) when the VR headsets come around (whether Occulus Rift or Valve).




The trouble is while you might be chomping at the bit to buy a $2,000 PS4, most of the world is not. It would not sell.
