Pc Gaming computer vs next gen consoles

[paulofny]

A couple of friends of mine would like to know what you all believe the odds are that the playstation 4 and xbox 720 will be more powerful than my current pc. Here is the specs of the main parts

Processor Intel Core i7-3960X Extreme Edition Sandy Bridge-E 3.3GHz (3.9GHz Turbo)
Memory 16 gigs of DDR3 1600
Two crossfired Radeon HD 7970 3GB 384-bit GDDR5


I've debated for a long time with them but its no use. Help settle this debate once and for all.

none what so ever.ms are looking at a basic 3.0 quad and a 6770 for the gfx...wit 1-4 gigs of ram.
from what i gather. the next gen console will be a gen old by the time i comes out so it wont be anything like its predecessor as far as having advanced gfx...
