    Consoles are built to do one thing. General purpose computers need to do a whole lot of things. Apples and oranges.

      Yeah I think the point is that if your gaming the console hardware is there in the form of VRAM so needing 16gb for windows alone, then 16 additional for a game on top of the VRAM. It doesn’t add up. A 25-35% bumb when everything became 64bit is understandable but let’s not pretend that it can’t be done with much less.
