Hey everyone. I am both a PC and console gamer, and I know many of you are going to tell me right away that I should just upgrade my PC, but hear me out. I really enjoy the rock solid framerates and experiences I get on my PC, it is just unparalleled. On the flipside, I also really enjoy my Xbox One console, all of my friends have consoles so I usually play my PC games alone, but playing Xbox all night with friends is the most fun I have. I saw recently that Microsoft is releasing their new Xbox One X which has more GPU power than my PC this November. I want to either upgrade my PC, buy a VR Headset for my PC, buy a PS4 Pro/PSVR, or wait for an Xbox One X. Please give me your opinion along with reasoning, and if you believe I should upgrade my PC, tell me what I should upgrade, or what VR headset I should purchase :). THANKS SO MUCH AND HAVE A GOOD ONE, I HAVE ABOUT 900 DOLLARS TO SPEND ON THIS ENDEAVOR
My Custom-Built PC Specs are:
Gigabyte G1 Gaming GTX 1060 6GB
Intel Core i5 6400 2.7GHz
MSI b150m Motherboard
16GB of DDR4 2133Mhz Ram
120GB SSD
2TB HDD Storage

as a PC user, i say upgrade ur PC, if your purpose is only for gaming, then getting a Z270 mobo and changing to i7 7700k is the best course (u can OC it too), or if u can wait, coffelake (8th gen), also, later on u can use VR on it
this build will last for a while so u will be fine, also STEAM had many games, and if u play games like dota, u can't play it on console right :D

while im in awe after reading the XBOX one X specs, u won't be able to utilize its full res (4k from what i know) without buying a 4k res monitor / TV, so i say it would be a waste (no offense on console user), unless you're planning on buying a 4k res display too / u already had one

i used to play console, then everything change when my skin got screwed coz of...

Yeah I totally understand that, I was thinking of getting a 6700k and new motherboard and possibly a gtx 1080, I'm really into competitive shooters like Overwatch and Rainbow Six Siege. What do you think about getting a PS4 Pro and PSVR? I really enjoy VR and I could upgrade my PC a bit and buy an Oculus Rift too, what are your thoughts?

For fps game I suggest the PC, I mean let's face it, the best aiming gear would be either a mouse, or the plastic fun u use when u play at a arcade game center like time crisis :D u won't get that kind of precision from a joystick ( this is my personal opinion, don't judge me :v )

Yeah for sure, I love the precision of mouse and keyboard in FPS games. I think I'm gonna stick with my PC. Thanks man!
