hi gaming people of Hive. in this blog, I want to talk about two important devices for gaming. most powerful gaming console and one of the best graphic cards out there. the reason that I choose these two is because I have them both 😅 so that way I can write my personal experience better.
so here we go.
do we need a gaming console and PC at the same time?
You know, having a gaming console, especially an Xbox, and a computer at the same time is not very rational! I myself first bought my Xbox console, but after some time when I realized that I need a powerful computer for my design work, I bought my new computer, which is really powerful in terms of gaming.
The interesting thing is that I have used my Xbox very, very little since I bought my computer. Now I only use my console when I have guests, or I'm going to spend a night with my friends and acquaintances.
So having a console and a computer at the same time is not very economical and rational.
which one is more powerful? RTX 3080 or Series X
If we want to talk about the power of these two devices, the 3080 graphics card is definitely more powerful than the Xbox GPU. Graphically heavy games can run at 60 frames per second on the Xbox console. The good news is that 60 frames is locked and this is a standard rate suitable for gaming. The same rate of 60 is considered a double improvement compared to the previous generation consoles.
But the monster graphics card 3080 with 10 gigs of processing memory can run the same heavy games up to 100 frames and even higher. This increase in frame rate shows itself when you have a monitor with a high refresh rate, which I have.
Of course, in comparison, I am talking about 1080 resolution.
In general, in terms of processing power, high frame rate and everything being cooler, having a gaming computer with graphics like RTX 3080 can be much more enjoyable.
Which of these two is more economical?
Well, if we want to check from the economic point of view, Xbox will definitely win this part. The 3080 graphics card alone is about 30% more expensive than the Xbox Series X. If we want to get such a graphic card, we must have a powerful CPU, RAM memory, good power, and a completely powerful computer. The price of such a computer will be as much as 4 Xbox series X :))😂
So if you only have gaming goals and are limited in terms of budget, Xbox Series X will definitely be a great choice. This Microsoft product has offered extremely high quality along with its price.
Finally, I am very satisfied with my Xbox, it has unique features and is a really powerful device. You can play a lot of cool and multiplayer games with it. For example, one of the games I preferred to play on Xbox was Elden Ring, which I enjoyed immensely.
