But I don't need to buy an entire pc "every generation" I can just buy a new GPU, and a low tier XX60 series or equivalent is always going to be faster than a console.

Yep exactly this I'm using an i7 3770 and 10gb ddr3 In my own rig I intend on buying a rx 560 for it as an upgrade for my current gpu

Except the year the new console is released since they're being sold at a loss, assuming they'll make up the difference in game sales.
