As you probably know by now, the PS4 is essentially a $400 PC. It has an x86 PC CPU, a standard PC GPU, and the same kind of RAM that you’d find on a PC graphics card. There are a few custom chips on the PS4′s motherboard, but for the most part it’s just a normal PC with some custom software. This led me to wonder… could you actually build a comparable PC for $400? More importantly, given how Sony has crippled the PS4′s home theatre functionality, is it possible to build a PC for $400 that is actually better for games and as a living room media box?

Sucker for Love: Date to Die For was short, a little broken, but ultimately engaging and relatable. Just like my love life.

Nope. It would a huge waste of time building this $400 machine. Not to mention this thing would still lack features exclusively for the PS4 and the PS4 exclusives themselves.
Just enjoy your platform of choice and stop battling other platforms.
Sigh... This article is asking for trouble.
No, you cannot build a PC for a cheaper price than the PS4 for several key reasons.
1. Free Online + Best Online Structure (PS4 would cost more if you didn't have to pay a subscription fee for PSN)
2. The PS4, while it's games look fine, cannot run current gen games like Crysis 3 on ultra settings and will probably never be able to run a game as well as PC.
3. PC isn't only a media and games device, but that's a whole topic for itself.
4. PS4 can never be portable.
I might as well stop here. Look, PS4 is a technically decent console, but lets not tick off the master race.
My PC cost about £1600 UK money more than PS4, it can do everything and does very well and the Dual shock 4 works on it.......But I don't have the first party games for it.
I'm a PC gamer, I build my own rigs, but I can say "no" you can't build a PC better than a PS4 or X1 for $400. I would say $600 is more realistic for a PC. In about 3 years, but not now. The card alone is half that cost.
lol a celeron CPU?? questios is how will games play on that 2005 PC
