You are welcome. Hm, I’d say the PS5 is a better option because of its exclusives. Even if someone says this generation is still lacking exclusives (R&C: Rift Apert is the best next-gen exclusive you’ll currently find though) you can play enhanced PS4 games with your PS5 and that’s a good thing, because there are many PS4-only games you can find out there, and you can’t emulate PS4 at this moment even if you have a very powerful machine.

Since we are talking about a console+gaming PC combo, I can’t recommend the Xbox Series X/S at this moment due to its lack of exclusives, even if the Series X/S has some neat features such as a better controller (at least this point is subjective), and the possibility of quickly resume your games even if your console was turned off. You can easily play most of OG Xbox or X360 on your high-end PC through native versions and ports, or emulation, so backwards compatibility is out of question here.

In terms of hardware, both consoles are almost equal/same level, and these more modern videogame generations aren’t compared to what consoles were (hardware-wise) during the previous generations such as 6th and 7th generations, except the more accessible Xbox Series S, which is weaker compared to the less expensive PS5 Digital Edition.

So yeah, I really think that all things considered, the PS5 is a better choice.
