  "account": "Comparing a mid-range PC to the PS5's GPU is a complex task, as they are fundamentally different systems. However, according to Digital Foundry, the NVIDIA RTX 2070 Super comes closest to matching the PS5's base APU. Despite being seven years old, this card is now priced around $280 on Amazon, which is roughly 53% of the PS5 Digital Edition's cost. The RTX 2070 Super features 8GB of GDDR6 memory and can deliver PS5-level performance, but it's not a perfect replacement due to differences in memory capacity and overall system architecture.",
  "summary": "One of the biggest questions when it comes to purchasing a gaming rig is whether to go console or PC. This NVIDIA GPU gives the closest results to a PS5.",
