The PS5 Pro is already expensive, but having one of the best gaming PCs is useful for more than just video games.

You can build a machine using practically the same exact hardware for just a bit more than buying the new, more expensive, console.

The AMD Zen 2 microarchitecture behind the PS5 is old news at this point, but it’s still an incredibly powerful platform.

Picking the right RAM to go into the system is a bit tricky, mostly because PS5 shares memory between the CPU and GPU .

The Cooler Master N200 is a tiny little PC case with enough space to fit even a high-end graphics card.

All together, this system will set you back about $863 , which is more expensive than the $ 699 PS5 Pro.

Because of the modularity of desktop PCs, you can upgrade any component that’s holding you back.
