Is Switching from Console to PC Worth It for Performance?

-

I’m considering making the leap from console to PC gaming, mainly for the improved input and performance. As a champ aiming to reach Grand Champion by the end of 2025, I’m curious if there’s truly a significant difference or if I’m just overthinking this. If the upgrades aren’t substantial, I might stick with console for now. I know that gameplay and training are key factors, but I’m looking for some personal experiences here!

Honestly, the performance upgrade is significant if you’re moving from a basic console. If you start from a 60hz console, switching to PC will blow your mind. Even at 120hz, there are benefits, but the jump isn’t as drastic. If you’re into competitive play, PC is definitely the way to go!

Right? I just wish more gamers shared their experiences about their frame rates; it would help everyone understand what to expect.

I’ve made the jump from console to PC, and it’s been a game changer for me! I went from Champion to Grand Champion within a few months. Just keep in mind, it might not be an instant improvement, but the advantages really compound over time. Plus, there are console players at the SSL rank too, so it’s still possible to succeed there!

Switching from console to PC definitely has its perks! While it won’t immediately boost your rank, many players find that it’s easier to improve due to better performance, such as higher frames per second and reduced input lag. Plus, you’ll have access to workshop maps which can also aid in your training.

Exactly! The overall gaming experience is just smoother on PC, which can make a difference in how quickly you improve.
