Primed for gaming at 4K. The console vs. PC debate is often an amusing source for repartee and discourse amongst technology-loving friends. Thought about it objectively, the graphics quality of consoles is closest to PCs when there's a new launch, as there was at the tail end of last year with the Xbox One and PlayStation 4, but then the PC forges way, way ahead over the next few years.

A seismic shift in PC graphics ability usually occurs when either AMD or Nvidia 'double-up' on their latest GPU architectures by launching a card equipped with dual GPUs. Recent history is littered with such examples, with the GeForce GTX 590 and GeForce GTX 690 from Nvidia and Radeon HD 6990 and Radeon HD 7990 from AMD.
