Some serious pc gamers are now buying 2, 3 or 4 top of the line cards to run in sli, or crossfire mode, plus the upgraded power requirements that come with it. Some pcs now have multiple power supplies just to power the graphics hardware. It's just costing too much to stay current on the pc. This combined with the ability to play games on your HDTV has made consoles more attractive.

I think a lot of that is overkill. PCs are easy to pour money into, but for a baseline system that can run everything very well these days, you don't need to spend over $400 for a complete system. I dropped $280 the other day for a brand new AMD processor, mainboard, and 8GB performance RAM. I can turn around and sell the 4-year old Intel hardware I have for almost that much! I think with PCs, the biggest barrier is knowledge of system building.
