As someone who still keeps a windows install to play games
occasionally, and at the risk of very wildly off-topic, a new PC with
an average graphics card can handle most games (but not at the highest
settings, because, what do you expect?). Low end graphics cards are
quite a long way down in performance. There is a bit of a difference
in that when games get put on PC they (at the moment) get higher
definition graphics than the consoles because the platform can handle
it, though that can leave the lower end people in the cold. Of course
the fact the games on Windows are often about 2/3rds the price of
console ones does begin to bite eventually too.
