As someone who bought a Digital Edition, I would highly recommend NOT getting this and going with a physical disc one.

Sales on digital edition games have been terrible (they often only put deluxe/ultimate editions or bundles on sale) and WAY more than physical sales this generation. In less than 2 years since I've had mine, I guarantee I've paid far more than the $100 I saved initially by paying more for games.
So you're still wrong that a RX 5500 is close in performance to the PS5. RX5500 =/= 5600 XT

That video you linked is for a 6600XT and that's paired with a a 5900X CPU and 32gb of ram. Also, those games are being played at 1080p. You can always have higher frames with lower quality, lower resolution gaming. PS5 is mostly 1440p with 4k upscaling and some native 4k games as well.

I'm not disagreeing that the PC is more versatile, but you are not beating the value of a console this generation with a PC. After you spend $250 on a 6600XT another $150 won't buy you the rest of what you need to be able to game close to a PS5.

This is a $400 console, no one is talking about bundles.

Your $380 HP PC you found on clearance is no match for the PS5, but if you're happy with it then that's great 👍

Isn't your best bet purchasing directly from Playstation? That's how I got mine last month. I signed up with Amazon at the same time but still haven't received the invite.

This is not a new deal. They have been taking requests for invitations for awhile. I have been waiting about a month. Not sure how many they sell and how often but I don't think Amazon ever shows it sold out, so I wouldn't get your hopes up thinking it is in-stock.
This deal is for new models (CFI-1215). You probably need to request new invite.

I got mine at BestBuy last week. A BB worker told me they usually don't put those on the floor. You'll need to ask if it's in stock.
