Microsoft Xbox Series S now commands a street price of just $239, at which it poses a serious threat to 1080p class gaming graphics cards. The Series S can play all of the latest AAA games with the best possible settings at 1080p, and is capable of 4K Ultra HD entertainment. $239 is about the same price as the latest 1080p-class desktop PC graphics cards, such as the Radeon RX 7600, the GeForce RTX 3060, or even the Arc A770. Meanwhile, the premium Xbox Series X, designed for 4K Ultra HD gaming, is selling for 20% less than its launch price, going for $399 (which is supposed to be the launch price of the Series S). At $399, the Series X offers a compelling alternative to a mainstream gaming PC.
